Wicked Little Town (Hedwig and the Angry Inch cover)

This track is me sort of exploring the idea that quantum foam and the big bang imply that the universe absolutely cannot tolerate the existence of true nothingness.   There can be nothing, but not for long.  Sort of encouraging, in a perverse way.

Anyway it takes a long time to get started; the track began as sort of an experiment in building music out of environmental noise.

Lyrics:

Can you call it vacuum, the spaces between spaces where there were never things?
Can you call it darkness, the absence of a light that never has been seen?
Either by sheer providence or through some strange technology,
nothing never lasts forever; something comes to be.

At its core, true nothingness is riddled with instability,
simply as a consequence of some innate geometry.
So in the end the emptiness is an impossibility.
Nothing never lasts forever; something comes to be.

Work In Progress - Nothing Never Lasts Forever

Last week I was playing around with sampling some sounds from an old data cassette as well as an XDR toneburst.  I ended up using those sampler instruments to flesh out a bit of music I'd already been working on, and the end result sounds like a discarded and poorly weathered cassette of some old video game music.

Spaghetti Code

This started as a "one synth" track using the Cherry Quadra synth for bass, backing, and lead to get it know it better. I like being able to send out each channel individually so I can process them with my own effects chains and really get with the sound design aspect from there, and the Quadra makes that easy to set up.

Now features re-recorded guitar work in parts and re-mixed! I was not done with it after all :D

I was messing around in bitwig with a rhythmic pattern I learned from karnatic music and I think I accidentally made prog.
