Description: Exploring double feedback among Makenoise Mimeophone and Erbeverb.

I don't know how, but my thoughts ended up at the Perpignan train station... ('cosmic center of the universe' according to Salvador Dali :)) The texture of the sound and the extent of the reverberation, the cosmic dimension... In any case, it makes you want to try feedback again (it's been a long time). Thank you for all these experiments!

Written for and performed by pianist Ben Smith at 'MUSICON: Eternal Returns' on 9.6.2021.

Many thanks to Simone Tarsitani, Eric Egan and Musicon, Durham University for the recording.

Unfolding Space

Another musical daydream based on experiments with modular synthesis, starting with various arpeggiated chords from the E370 internal sequencer and explorations of the Xoac digital frequency shifter, useful for making dramatic bass sounds. The piece finishes quietly with a nighttime field recording of Echo Lake (Maine) set to musical accompaniment  - you can hear some loon calls if you listen carefully. 

Much has happened in the last few months: a move required the studio be put in storage for months, then when it was fully restored in our new home, the music computer died. Now that the new music work station is installed and ready for action, I'm finally back in business again. Some of the clips used here were developed in the computer's absence, hence an experiment in DAW-less sound design, which I must admit, isn't my favorite way to work.

So thanks for listening, it's much appreciated.

Introspection

Continuing to experiment with delay buffers, and layering the results into a collage of sorts.
