Name: Frippertronic Bass: The Well-Tempered Loop (in C Minor) by ZoundScapes - ambient, esoteric, experimental
Duration: 5 min
Description: The fugal subject from Bach's Fugue #2 in C Minor (from the Well-Tempered Clavichord) here gets a Frippertronics-style looping workout, with the initial section being dry and unprocessed, and the back half featuring a FuzzFace overlay with some touch-wah for extra weirdness. Hope you enjoy (assuming this sort of thing is your cup of tea, LOL).

Wait for it....there's a bass solo coming in halfway to the end...might be worth it...

Shut up 'n Play Yer Glitchy Bass

Going for the aural equivalent of a Japanese haiku poem here. Hope I came close.

Frippertronic Bass: Dry Haiku

NASA’s InSight lander brought a seismometer to the Red Planet to study “marsquakes.” On Sept, 5, 2021, the seismometer detected a meteoroid impacting the planet’s surface, creating several craters in the process.
It was the first time the sound of a meteoroid impact was captured occurring on another planet, and it might not be what you expect. In the audio, you hear three “bloops” representing distinct moments of the impact: the meteoroid entering Mars’ atmosphere, exploding into pieces, and striking the ground. The peculiar sound is caused by an atmospheric effect that’s also been observed in deserts on Earth, where lower-pitched sounds arrive before high-pitched sounds.

InSight Captures Sound of a Meteoroid Striking Mars

Prepare for some chilly dissonances.  (Don't worry, they resolve. Eventually).

Frippertronic Bass: Dissonant Incantation

Another trial with running a Zoom MS60B fuzz patch into the Chase Bliss MOOD (Slip delay plus Envelope) for some sonic fairy dust, thence into my custom Valhalla Delay "Frippertronics" (6 second delay loop) patch and Valhalla Supermassive for some reverb.

First go with the Soma Labs Cosmos "anti-looper" tool.

For my American friends and relations. I hope this isn't sacrilege. :-)

I forgot to do basic mastering on the initial upload version of this track, so trying again...

The vibraphone is bowed  throughout . Recorded on reel to reel, some parts are  played back at half speed… and there are a few places where a subtle manipulation of speed occurs.. (where the pitch slides) It was so curious to me the idea of an acoustic instrument to mirror ('and then some') a sound normally associated with an electric keyboard.. That idea applies to most pieces in this playlist.
