lovely introduction of these two beasts...

This is a demo of the Intellijel/Cylonix Shapeshifter digital oscillator. Here, I am using it alone (no other modules!), patched into itself. I have oscillator 2 in LFO mode, modulating the Ratio, MOD B, and Shape 2 inputs. The Shapeshifter is set to "Perc Mode," and the Pulse output is plugged into the Sync input. I ended up recording about 40 minutes worth of sounds, so here are some of my favorite sections. I tried to make the crossfades obvious, so that you can hear the separate sections.

airborne metaphor

Sometimes in September 2014, Mathias Van Eecloo who runs Eilean Rec. asked me to make a track for the label’s end-of-the-year compilation. He wanted something quite different than the album I had just released on his label, something more “ethereal” and “softer” than the harsher textures that I had explored with this album. He sent me a few photos to help me finding the right tone for the track and i was so inspired by one of them that I made this music in nearly one sitting in October. The compilation was released in December 2014 and it’s called Eilean 53. It features the 12 artists who released an album on Eilean Rec. in 2014.

Artists involved in alphabetical order :

Aaron Martin
Bmrn (Boomruin)
Danny Clay
HolyKindOf
Leigh Toro (Flotel)

All music composed, performed & mixed by the music artists involved between July 2014 & November 2014 on various locations (Colombia, Italy, Japan, United Kingdom, Usa)

Had some hard days and it won't be better soon! So this is how I feel! These noises are from the Industrialectric RM1n reverb pedal with no input at all!
