While playing around with some sounds in Vital (a fun synth plugin) and trying some delays and reverbs I came up with a simple ‘melody’ (if you can call it that). It reminded me of some ‘music’ I have heard in a video about mushrooms. In this video they showed different kinds of mushrooms that were connected to a device with moveable arms that held drumsticks. The drumstick hit some midi-keyboard that was connected to a laptop. The mushrooms seemed to be ‘playing’ music. Anyhow, that’s how I came up with the title. I unleashed the mushroom in me. As always I have used Spitfire Audio. This time it was GAIKA’s ‘War Island’. I have put some delays and reverbs on that one as well and I thought I could end the song with this sound. It has a nondescript unstable tape sound which I like. Almost like Boards of Canada. To get that sound I have used Cymatics Origin and Valhalla SuperMassive (of course).

As Ämpers@nd I am producing (largely but not always intentionally) melancholic and dark-sounding ambient and soundscapes. Occasionally I produce chill and relaxing (almost meditative) songs and (experimental) electronic music.
