An exploration of not bells ... be careful, though ... the SoundCloud algorithm doesn't consider this music, and I didn't really want to "modify your track to make it eligible" for recommendation to potentially interested listeners! 😂

Combustion Dub [disquiet0692]

chaos rains, chaos reigns

This is a "live" version of The First Realization (Parasite), although I recorded this one first.  Instead of the loop, I'm playing [roughly] the same phrase, live (ergo, it's only one guitar track).  It's otherwise basically the same setup: Walrus Sloer -> Chase Bliss Onward -> Some other stuff (maybe the RM-1N, if memory serves).  I like the drone better on this one, for whatever that's worth.

the second realization (organics)

the first realization is the hardest to eradicate

This is a relatively simple loop feeding into a Walrus Sloer at almost full mix, and then having the pad-y nature of that battle it out with the catch-and-hold thing the Onward does.  I think there's a few other things in there too (RM-1N?  Although I don't think it's doing to much), but I don't really remember at this point.  I think I'm playing over the loop a bit, and maybe twiddling some knobs.  I don't really get how to control the Onward, so I'm not sure how to do things like make sure it doesn't cut out completely, and how to "play" it more rhythmically.  But I think this sounds cool regardless.
