Hotel room jam.  Playing with rhythm... extreme groove.  Needs more cowbell and silence.  But a fun little section I think.

quick jam

just messing around with sound integration.
mixed for headphones and/or something with decent bass

utitled 34 intro

exercise.  working on structure, leads.  stays in c minor harmonic.


lead donor

Mournful organs... love 'em.

I hope the levels come out ok on this.  I've heard it so many times now i'm not sure :)

mechanical resignation

monkeying about with some plug-ins i never really figured out how to use.
working on dynamics, compositional organization.  still a mess but getting better i think.


tweaked nil sky

held on to this one for a long time and didn't really do anything else with it... might try to remix it later for levels.  i doubt i can re-create any of it on purpose. it was crazy feed-backed.

if i had to say a certain style was my favorite... i think this is it.  generally this is just loads of hackery on FM and warping, cut, paste, lather, hack, repeat.  i kind of like the fact that it doesn't really try to be very harmonious.  in fact it has a sort of off-key flavor reminiscent to me of BoC stuff.  anyway, i'll keep at it...


iterate one

i really like how this turned out.   it feels minmal yet interesting.  it has structure.  wow.  i hardly ever stick to something for 2:30.

to me this is the audio equivalent of a good shape drawing.  it's like basics.  bowls of apples and oranges, spheres and cubes, eh.  it's like: you know the shapes aren't hard; it gets down to perspective and texture and execution.  

anyway hopefully someone else can enjoy it too :)

btw: tags for something like this?  genre?  i have no idea.  the beat structure and meter are actually danceable...

it's 6732

From @galenwade: https://soundcloud.com/galenwade/the-whisk comes the tinkling and beating of a whisk.  I love whisks!  The sounds *and* the crooked eggs they make.  :)

I was working on this beat and an intro to go with it already and the whiskery just fit perfectly, IMHO.

whiskie 5 (with Galen Wade's "The Whisk")

sort of a low/hi c drone with a melody build-up in the middle.  i was using phrase repetition and interpolation with slight modification as a way to help me learn to create interest.  i have more to work with here so a few more sequences to go.

notnot.*

it's a bad habit i think... but i often wind up with a well choreographed, full-tilt set of sounds mingling together.  but w/o a buildup.  so i thought... why not play with the levels so they fade in and out a little... then take them away.  eh, it makes me happy anyway. :)


unfolding

working with filter envs again.  definitely tried to keep this gauzy and low-end.  get some big speakers and crank it up.
