Composition by Savitra S.K. from the Acoustic Studio Sessions, sound recording by Max Haikin (recorded live at DOM Cultural Center, 14.12.2012)

Savitra - Farewell to India /acoustic studio sessions, 2012/

Swoon

one line written like an epitaph
on walls of the underground
her laugh echoing in third class
fall into desolation sound
follow her down down
down into her labyrinth
follow the line she unwinds
from her blue dress

in that room everybody swoons
could be your tomb everybody swoons

her waist an upside down valentine
blonde circuits blowing the car 
she sways you`re the nearest handy man
subway turns to a ramshackle rickshaw
follow her down down 
down into her labyrinth
follow the line she unwinds 
from her blue dress
              
in that room everybody swoons
down in her catacombs everybody swoons

welcome to her human museum
maybe you`re the first fireproof man
carpe-diem is that whst you`re thinking
dancing with an oriental fan
follow her down down 
down into her labyrinth
follow the line she unwinds 
from her blue dress

in that room everybody swoons
surrender to your doom everybody swoons

For this challenge:
Step 1: Think about how a gradient functions, as one thing transitions into another.

Step 2: Make a short piece of music that aims to explore the idea of a gradient in sound.

As mentioned on a previous junto, lately, when I have time, I’m recycling old masters I got back this summer from a publisher deal, I have dozens of 10 or 15 years old tracks to re-listen, re-work and release or use at will.
For this junto I decided to do a gradient between two old tracks: one completely electronic (synths and treatments) and one acoustic (live in the studio performance with actual musicians and instruments)
It starts with the electro-drone song , and instead of just crossfading volumes between tracks I decided to make my own interpretation of gradient: the second song’s tracks start unmuting one by one, starting with the flute and some percussion, then bass, etc, while the first song’s tracks start fading or muting one by one.
To make things interested, the first song is in the key of Bb major, while the second plays around A major and A minor, so the long middle section of this track, where the mutation happens, is in two superimposed keys, providing dissonance and instability instead of the original track’s clear mood.

An incomplete beat. Mainly just missing vocals, not sure what else it could use though. Compliments, criticisms etc are welcome in the comments, as always.

Can robots dance? In this episode, we discuss Boston Dynamics releasing a video showing four of its robots dancing to the 1962 hit "Do You Love Me?" by The Contours, and it caught fire online. We also talk about a new wearable device detects hand gesture you intend to make and Emirati researchers securing a US patent for their innovative cancer treatment that involves the use of nanotransmitters.

‘The weight of the world rests on the powerful and humble shoulders of Jesus.’

Life might feel overwhelming and chaotic in these challenging times. Drawing on the words of the prophet Isaiah and the Parable of the Lost Sheep (Luke 15:4-5), Ben Bryant encourages us to lay our burdens on the shoulders of Jesus – He is strong enough to carry the weight of our world.

I've been messing around with DAWs and software synths since around 2014. Learning whatever I can, experimenting with different genres, and enjoying the process. A lot of these are just snippets of idea.

If you have criticisms, suggestions, questions, requests, ideas, comments etc, or even want to collaborate, feel free to send me a message or comment on one of my tracks. Thanks for listening!
