Y2K  By Therese Lloyd (disquiet0665)

Three drum beats, chopped, cut and mutilated with different manual methods and an automated plugin (tweaked in real time) + a synth track, also cut and skidded and finally a glitch I captured and entered on a sampler, played rhythmically with pads.
Created Thursday Sep26th by DD.

Cut That Click (disquiet0665)

In memoriam Achim Szepanski (1957-2024), founder of the Mille Plateaux record label and inspiring human being.

Andrea Taeggi, Snd, Tim Hecker, Alva Noto, Andreas Tilliander, Sutekh/Rrose, Pole... Many of my heroes were found on the Clicks & Cuts compilations or on the Mille Plateaux label.

Such sounds brought me depth.
Peace.
Space...

So much left to discover.
Thank you for the amazing legacy!

--- Production notes
SY: Digitone > CMX1978
FX: Microcosm > GenLoss2 > Empress Reverb
BPM: 93 as the year 1000 Plateaux was created

I started with the abstract beats that I love so much in the work of the artists cited above.
Trying to give most percussions their own sound…
Until I reached the limit of capacity of the machine.
Then I added some sad yet cheerful synth in the background…
To get the mix of sadness and closure that I can feel when someone has passed whose work I admire and will forever keep living in my heart.

The Assignment: Record a track in honor of the late Achim Szepanski.

One of the things that stood out to me in the music on the first Clicks_+_Cuts compilation from Mille Plateaux, was how in several pieces shifts in foreground and background are used as the main source of musical development. Parts that start in the background move to the fore, while others that were in the centre move to the periphery.
In the piece I made, I've tried to centre this approach. it consists of three main layers, a kick/bassdrum layer, a percussion layer and layer of slowly moving tonal material (mostly swells). The source material for these layers was made using a zither played in a variety of ways (harmonics, extended technique etc) and treated in real time (as I was playing) with various digital effects 
Subsequently, I mixed the layers and used mainly delays, reverb and filtering, as well as stereo processing, to draw the listeners attention to the different layers, creating shifts in foreground and background.
