Filamenti (disquiet0614)

One aspect of the track I contributed last week was using multiple sounds to create varying rhythmic patterns. This week's track produces changing rhythms using a single sound with inbuilt threefold delay.

Disquiet Junto Project 0614: Alternate Route
The Assignment: Do something you often do, but differently.

This is a slightly different take on last week’s project.

Step 1: Think of something related to making music that you do a lot.

Step 2: Think of an alternate way to do it that challenges your habits.

Step 3: Make a piece of music using the approach you thought of in Step 2.

I took some of @kate-gallaher's recorder loops from yesterday to make this response to the @naviar-records weekly haiku. 

Here's the details about this week's challenge:

'Disappearing
snow on mountain peak
unfurls a rainbow'

Sôen Nakagawa was a key figure in the transmission of Zen Buddhism from Japan to the Western world. Author Sean Murphy, in his “One Bird, One Stone: 108 Contemporary Zen Stories”, tells us an interesting story about the Zen Buddhist master during his time in the U.S.:

“Soen loved to walk around New York City. He’d stare at the lighted skyscrapers, at their tops, he claimed he saw Buddha figures in the lights. “Look at the Buddha,” he’d point, “Shining Buddha!” He’d fill the sleeves of his robes with nuts and berries from Central Park or herbs growing in the sidewalk cracks, and add them to his bowl at the next meal. He loved the musical Fiddler on the Roof, and when asked a question about why some particular point of ceremony needed to be performed in a certain way, he might burst into song, responding “Tradition…!”

Disquiet Junto Project 0614: Alternate Route
The Assignment: Do something you often do, but differently.

Owners of Pianos may laugh, but to throw in as much as possible instrumentation (sometimes more than one to a motive) with all those plugins and hardware toys becomes so much a second nature, that I thought I should do it differently. So this is a simple track that only uses the Puremagnetik VERV Sunbaked Tape Loop Synthesizer with the same settings for all voices. To make the voices more distinguishable I had to enhance some bass here, reduce some noise there, both with Reapers RealFIR, the gross motor axe of my choice. Some FX plus mastering plugins. "AmdPadic" because the filename started as something with "ambient pads", before it became what it is, and I liked the sound of "empathic" I can hear in the track title.
