This electro-acoustic composition was generated by repeated structured improvisations that became a defined live performance. The score of this piece consists in a dramaturgy structure divided into 5 sound frameworks. The music originates from the magical elements and the supernatural aspect represented by the figure of the three witches who prophesy Macbeth's fate.

The Uncertainty Principal

Disquiet Junto 0657 was an invitation to compose a pice out of overlapping tones that start and stop suddenly.

I created multiple layers of synth pads, each holding a single note of random duration in the key of Am. Next I bounced the audio, slowed it by 75%, and reversed it to create abrupt stops in each tone. I blended that audio back into the mix to provide a low aural foundation. On top of this I recorded a couple of additional pads with held tones, chopped up with a grain stutter plugin. To wrap it up, I improvised a couple of wandering leads with "broken" synths in Cmaj/Amin.

I worked hard on the spacial mix, so headphones or a good pair of stereo monitors are recommended.
