The interference effectively dissolving rythm but still providing tempo creates the observation of passing of time.

You guessed it: I conducted a jam session, recorded everything and then used Audacity to put the best parts from this sesson together to one single track using only basic audio editing techniques. 

During this particular jam session I used my humble Eurorack together with the Arturia MicroBrute and a ton of modulation. Additionally, I employed a collection of guitar pedals to bring in some effects. The squeeking noises heard throughout the track is the MicroBrute's filter in self-resonance.

The speech sample comes from the stock audio library of the Eurorack module Radio Music and is the voice of Kurt Waldheim, an Austrian diplomat. This greeting was featured on the Voyager Golden Records, two gold plated records which were included aboard both Voyager spacecraft that were launched in 1977.

As so often the case, I additionally used a sample of another artist, this time it's the awesome, the magnificent, the one and only The Hybrid Drummer: https://youtu.be/KXhUwzdRD34

This piece is based on the following:  I have long wondered at the percentage of "ambient" sound we suppress: infrastructure noises; highway traffic; fog horns; etc. etc.  That leads me to ponder the cost, if any, of utilizing a portion of our "energy" to continually suppress such sounds.   Finally, that in liberating and "redeeming" said disregarded, suppressed sounds, one can experience beauty and musicality.  This piece was made by my carrying a handheld digital recorder and perambulating a wide swath of my home neighborhood.   Moving through inhabited, to graveyard district industrial, to waterfront, underpass, basketball (that's the ghost of John Cage shooting hoops).  The buildings hum and the birds sing counterpoint.  I have managed, thus far, to suppress an overwhelming urge to start caressing, folding, manipulating, pounding these sounds into something else.  As they stand, however, many of them would be worthy of any electronic ambient composition and I wanted to present them in their natural glory.  Hence, while doing a minimal amount of trimming, snipping and constructing a coherence to the piece, I stayed away from reverb, looping, delay, compressor etc. etc.

A couple of things:  Some of the sounds are church services that I passed by.  I don't know the churches or the singers but I found them to be exceedingly beautiful and of great meaning to me.  It is with profound respect that I offer my thanks.  Similarly, I don't know who took the picture...it looked cool and appropriate, however.  Thank you!  

Hope you enjoy!!
