Divisio Spiralis X (2019)

Puisqu'entre 2 arrêts, les rêveries vont bon train, on pourrait laisser pousser les idées entre les lignes, le long des voix.
Voguer joyeusement de la gare d'après à celle d'hier, pour faire dérailler le temps et retrouver les chemins du faire.
De quai en quai, rêveries au quart de tour et quintes de toux, ici on retrouve le fil et on s'aiguille grâce au chat. On vous laisse choisir la bonne voie. Assurez-vous de ne rien avoir oublié.
Avec des apparitions de Gaston Bachelard
Ecoute au casque recommandée • Enregistrements en binaural

Since between 2 stops, daydreams are easier than it steams, we could let ideas grow between the lines, along the voices.
Sail happily from the station after to that of yesterday, to derail time and go back on tracks.
From quay to quay, quintessence of daydreams and coughing fits to quarter turns, here we find the thread and we needle ourselves thanks to the cat. We let you choose the right path. Make sure you haven't forgotten anything.
With appearances by Gaston Bachelard.

CoMute #6: Train avec Gaston Bachelard

Our initial dialog with Synthia was an adventurous creative endeavour that made us question whether machines could have a soul. This one definitely spoke her mind, and left a fascinating mark on both of us as a wondrous machine––––––woman, a marvelous piece of engineering, an entity trapped in a modular eternity.

Considering that neither of us had any previous contact with such a complex modular system such as EMS Synthi 100, we took a somewhat intuitive approach. This is a fairly raw glimpse of the first days spent in the studio.

Oh, Synthia, we only just met...

Happy birthday Mark!!!

An improvised field recording set on aquatic life and death in the age of the Anthropocene. It combines underwater recordings of singing glaciers, pulsating aquatic plants and water insects with spatial resonances from hydropower dams and reservoirs.

The Mutant Orchestra haven't been let out of their cavern for a long time. Possibly with good reason. Probably should have been more careful what or who I fed to them...

Melange by The Mutant Orchestra

Not sure this will be enjoyable to many people but:

These are the sounds of aquatic organisms recorded with a hydrophone via a Hologram Microcosm Granular/Looper/Delay/Pitch shifting pedal.  The Microcosm manipulated the sounds of aquatic organisms to create some mad soundscapes.

Recorded with: 

Sound Devices MixPre3 mk2

Hydrophone to MixPre3, the output of the MixPre went to the Microcosm and the output of that back into the MixPre3.

I'm embarking on a new project series that will focus on long-form generative eurorack pieces. I was delighted to discover the ability to use the Generations generative midi controller that was created by Innesti (innesti.bandcamp.com/merch/generations-handmade-midi-controller) with the 1010 Bitbox Micro, and so this combination created the foundation for the piece. I very much consider this to be a companion piece to my recently released 'Generational Drift-A Seasonal Reflection in Four Movements' on Handstiched* (handstitched.bandcamp.com/album/generational-drift-the-celestial-sphere), as some of the elements are shared, as well as the use of Generations, however, this feels quite a bit warmer...thus Spring.

Basic patch notes~

Generations triggering four midi clips in Bitbox, as well as modulating various parameters (pan, filter cut off). Other samples in Bitbox triggered by random gates from Marbles, witch is slowly clocked by PNW. White noise triggering ProbMel/ProbDiv in O_c Hemispheres, which is delicately playing Rings, which then goes thru Draad and Monsoon. Øchd is creating an offset drone from Ensemble Osc and Plaits + Three Sisters, all while sending modulation to various param's throughout..

Recorded 4/21/24...Eurorack > Bluebox > Ableton, and then a basic mastering chain..

I hope you'll enjoy, and hopefully I'll be able to continue with these bits for the foreseeable future :)
