The starting point for this collaborative track was a rich-sounding rhythm track full of glitchy textures, dub delays, and dynamic movement, composed by Sternklang for Disquiet 0572.

I added a couple of percussive layers programmed in Ableton, along with a chord I sampled from my modular system, bass tones using Serum, and VST processing to add tape cassette style artifacts and bit reduction textures. My goal was to reinforce some of the implied melody in the original track with the bass, and then reframe the composition with simple chords and a light percussive embellishments. I kept the original track front and center with only minor edits and processing to add inflection points around transitions between parts. 

I hope you enjoy!

ORGONE AIRLINES

Severe thunderstorm warning sirens as heard from my screened porch on March 6, 2017.  I live just north of Iowa City, Iowa in an almost-rural area that is all ravine and trees.  I've recorded storm warning sirens for years, as a by-product to recording storms, but this one seemed to have something special about it:  the multiple sirens at varying distances, the stopping and re-starting of one siren.  The length of the sirens seemed quite a bit longer than normal, although I'm not sure about that.
