iris pastel ghost (you  are real for me)

This is the second track in my experimental PM series. These tracks are written, recorded, sampled and performed in a single two hour sitting. 

The idea is that the artificial time limit focuses the mind and sparks creativity - I also find it really good fun.

I'm really please with how this one turned out; there are a few little mistakes in it but I'm leaving them in because that's all part of the process. It's funny, I go back later and try to perform these tracks again and I find I can never quite recapture the feel from the first attempt!

The process here was to record around 10 short snippets in Bandlab, mostly on electric guitar but some synths as well. I then imported everything into Loopy Pro, and applied lots of effects (making heavy use of Other Desert Cities from Audio Damage which is essentially an instrument in it's own right). Then I constructed a beat and looped everything, and recorded a performance live. Not much time for thinking when you try to do all of that in two hours...

SubmitHub tells me the genre is:

IDM / Glitch (39%)
Experimental Electronic (36%)
Ambient (34%)
Downtempo (20%)
Shoegaze (18%)

Those percentages seem very specific to me! Personally I'd put the Shoegaze percentage a bit higher as there are quite a few heavily reverbed/delayed guitars going on here.

Anyway, hope you enjoy it, please let me know what you think in the comments!
