Description: Mix with different tracks from both Ucrage and Sigfus. This is an alternative version, which also where used at an exhibition with my artwork September 2020 In Copenhagen.

Good day to you, SIGFUS! What a highly unique sound canvas you have created! A slight bit eerie in nature while approaching the end...! Having a bit of a gamer's sound effects. Incredible seemingly applied particle blasting of dust dispersion...It unleashed the beast of Good House Keeping, perhaps! LOL!...Reminds me of The Mummy! >>>

on the level/ it'll never settle/awesome composition/keep on mixN/darkN super sensations

The magnificence of the whole song that cannot be imagined from the beginning with impact. Sounds that are quietly and precisely woven seem to describe a story or a person's heart. Thank you for the wonderful music!

on mobile phone and totally impressed with this ambient music work!

This composition is exceptionally well-crafted.

You were my friend

You guessed it: I conducted a jam session, recorded everything and then used Audacity to put the best parts from this sesson together to one single track using only basic audio editing techniques. 

During this particular jam session I used my humble Eurorack together with the Arturia MicroBrute and a ton of modulation. Additionally, I employed a collection of guitar pedals to bring in some effects. The squeeking noises heard throughout the track is the MicroBrute's filter in self-resonance.

The speech sample comes from the stock audio library of the Eurorack module Radio Music and is the voice of Kurt Waldheim, an Austrian diplomat. This greeting was featured on the Voyager Golden Records, two gold plated records which were included aboard both Voyager spacecraft that were launched in 1977.

As so often the case, I additionally used a sample of another artist, this time it's the awesome, the magnificent, the one and only The Hybrid Drummer: https://youtu.be/KXhUwzdRD34

Humility And Hope [Jam session sections: RAW2022 - 1]

Written in 1985, a sad tale of rejection and loss. Recorded in 2021 as an early attempt at using studio software.
Lyrics:

Why did you run

You’re presence still stays
In the room and on the things that you’ve touched
And I’ve tried so hard not to love 

But it’s so hard to expel you from my soul 

So Why, tell me why did you run?
(Why did you run?)
You never told me but you told everyone 
(You told everyone)
Yeah And you told them that you no longer loved me
(You said you don’t love me)
Yeah And I need you so bad so why can’t you see
That I need you so why can’t you need me? 

Have you any idea of the hurt and pain that remains? 
And there must be a release but I will not run away

But it’s so hard to expel you from my soul

So Why, tell me why did you run?
(Why did you run?)
You never told me but you told everyone 
(You told everyone)
Yeah And you told them that you no longer loved me
(You said you don’t love me)
And I need you so bad so why can’t you see
That I need you so why can’t you need me?

The Morning After

(Free WAV Download available here under '••• More'; and eventually, as part of a future solo album)

Good afternoon my SC friends. This year, I thought it might be fun to share some of the brain rebooting information I’ve discovered over the years that helped me navigate life a little easier. So if you like the idea of following along with these liner notes, you’ll want to watch this video first (about 1 minute... Selective Attention Test video: https://youtu.be/vJG698U2Mvo), before you continue reading down. It’s quite challenging to get the count right, but the results are utterly fascinating. :)

*waits patiently*

Welcome back. So, if you haven’t already seen it before, you just watched a video that brilliantly demonstrates our limited capacity as observers. I admit, I was so busy counting the passing ball… I totally missed the gorilla. Most of my family missed it as well. And according to the creators of the video, at least 50% of the audience will. That’s mind blowing.

So what does that say about our perceptions? It seems to suggest we’re not as aware as we think we are. And that is a lovely thought, because it means we don’t have to be so hard on ourselves when we misperceive things. We are literally incapable of taking it all in, and therefore we don’t always have the full picture (or even the same picture as our fellow traveller).

And that just demonstrates the limits of our mental awareness. Now consider our senses for a moment… how our hearing range is limited to a range of 20Hz to 20kHz. Think about how our vision doesn’t go below the ultraviolet or above the infrared. And I know I can’t smell things to the excellent degree my family’s pets can. 

The one that really blows my mind is that we aren’t ever physically touching anything. There is always an atomic amount of space between all objects. So when I sit down in a chair, what’s really happening is the molecular particles that collectively agreed to make up my butt are interacting with the molecular particles that collectively agreed to make up that chair; and the signals are all just electrical stimuli to my brain. I believe I can feel the smoothness of the polished woodgrain… but it isn’t a full or accurate story.

So now we have an idea of the limitations of our five senses. Add to that how we are limited to those five senses in the first place (unless some of you have physically developed sonar like a bat or have the ability to create an external multi-member neural network like fungi do underground), and you start to have a better idea just how much of the picture we are missing. 

So in a nutshell, we simply don’t have the full picture; and that can be a very liberating realization. That idea gave me the wisdom I needed to release my stranglehold on being a perfectionist… just a little bit. If I’m constantly missing things I don’t even know I’m missing, perfection isn’t even an option. I can also take these ideas out into the world with me, and realize we really don’t perceive things as similarly as we think we do. We are constantly being influenced by everything from our senses and mental awareness to cognitive dissonance and the bias of preference. We are each having different experiences, and that underlying realization is a great place to start, if change be the thing we desire. :)

So if you found this write-up interesting, you might enjoy ‘The Invisible Gorilla, And Other Ways Our Intuitions Deceive Us’ by Christopher Chabris and Daniel Simons. It’s a thought provoking read. 

I’ll share other inspirational books and TV shows in future song notes. In the meantime, I hope you enjoyed my latest sonic adventure, ‘Develop Mental’ (especially all the little details I added in the 21kHz+ range, as well as the ‘scratch and sniff for dogs’ elements). :)

Hey,  I’ve done a mix a Clive’s @winkandwoo cool track Beautiful Day.  Here is the original https://soundcloud.com/winkandwoo/a-beautiful-day

Enjoy,

BEAUTIFUL DAY**WINK&WOO**RICØ MIX

Passion

This is a song that began with me laying down some bass, organ, piano, synth, and slide over a looped, heavily delayed guitar riff. I asked Ken to put some drums on it, which he did to perfection, as well as added some acoustic guitar. I then sent it to Tez, and asked him to come up with a lead part for it. He also delivered exactly what I wanted to hear. We dropped the initial looped guitar that was the whole basis for the song to begin with, which I think is pretty cool. Tez mixed and produced this, and what a fine job he did, too, as always. these two guys are wonderful collaborators--so talented and so easy to work with. What I told them was that I wanted to make sober people feel high when they listen to this. I hope it has that effect on you!

Ritual

This is a song that JJ came up with on the electric piano and shared with the rest of us. He's done a significant portion of the songwriting for the Eclectic Collective, and always gives us quality songs, to which are easy to add our voices. When he sent it to us, he had a rough bass on there that sounded like Lust for Life. Ken came up with a killer and appropriate beat, which, if you can picture Lust For Life, included a lot of accentuated bass kicks. So, Josh took and went with that, and came up with a funky bass line. Ken and he kicked it back and forth a few times till they linked up. Then JJ added some funky ass organ and trippy retro synth to spice it up.
  Then it was time to send it to the guitarist. Tez laid down some smoking lead solos throughout, with his signature fiery guitar tone and amazing licks. Then Stephen funked it up even more with a fonky-ass wah guitar track. 
  Ken produced and mixed this one for us, and what an excellent job he did, too. This was so much fun to create. We all hope you enjoy listening to our jam as much as we did playing it.
