"My sound practice investigates the spiritual dimensions of listening through sustained tones, silence, and subtle transformation, inviting inward attention and expanded awareness."

Prompted by this haiku: 

faring over the lake
drawing the light
an autumn butterfly

I made a single patch with multiple outputs in virtual modular using VCV Rack, splitting the audio this way allowed me to apply external effects selectively. There's also a layer of singing bowls played live while manipulating and recording the VCV elements, using the Healing 2 Lite virtual instrument from Quiet Music.

Drawing The Light - (Naviarhaiku - 612)

The haiku that prompted this: 

Star above the peak -
a silk worm-breeding village
silently asleep

Although the haiku provided a clear image with some well defined elements I didn't have a starting point. The star and sleeping village were no problem so I began experimenting with sequenced elements to represent the peak using VCV Rack. I then developed the atmospheric background in Voltage Modular as I wanted to use the Quadelay module from Waverley Instruments for which there is no VCV equivalent. I also included Healing 2 Lite , the Free singing bowl VST Instrument from Quiet Music. 

Taking the most promising sequences from VCV including an evolving "Pseudo melody" made with a virtual implementation of the Turing Machine. I assembled a routing and automation maze so I could multi track record and live improvise. I also set up several external effects before recording.

Although this was the result of a live improvisation; I actually recorded two versions, introducing the sequenced elements in a different order. While finalising the mix I added a touch of Stardust 201 Tape Echo to all the sequenced components to cement them together.

Star Above The Peak - (naviarhaiku - 613)

The haiku target for this:

The coming of autumn
determined
by a red dragonfly

The background drone and interment sighs are pure Voltage Modular while the melodic elements use two instances of Dreamsynth both controlled with MIDI data also generated by Voltage Modular. One of the Dreamsynth patches is entirely my own having been built from a blank template and thew other is a modified preset. Other than mastering there are no extra effects.

Everything was recorded in a single "Live" take.

Blurred Possibilites  - A Synkrotron/Boson Spin Collaboration (Ambient Online Compilation Volume 7)

Almost all tracks are free to download and covered by a Creative Commons license. Collaborations / Remixes are welcome so feel free to experiment - no need to get my permission first. Just send me a link to your track when you're done :)

I love listening to & creating ambient, dark ambient, avant-garde & experimental electronica (and the occasional beatscape). I have no professional aspirations  - I just really like creating music / manipulating sounds. It's my way of relaxing after a hard day at the office. All my tracks are produced using monitoring headphones (Audix A140) so I recommend that you listen to my music through headphones. My DAW of choice is FL Studio. I also use Reason every now & then. 


To the artists I follow; I do my best to try to listen to as many of your tracks as possible each night (I listen to each track all the way through - you went through the effort to create a track so you deserve to have it heard in full). If I miss a recent upload of yours, please forgive me...

Thank you for taking the time to visit my little corner of the soundcloud.
