Name: Perfect Day, Extended by Velvet Something Superdark
Duration: 6 min 37 s
Description: Snow*Omen/Velvet Something Superdark collaboration based on Lou Reed's "Perfect Day" (1972). Recording of partly improvised live performances (Y.A.: voice, fretless 4-string-cbg, e-bow, VSS: electric guitars, pedal noise, background voice). All sounds: @snow_omen. Mixing and production: VSS.

The contrast between electronic sounds and vocals, subtle yet apparent, is something I truly enjoy.

The sounds in this passage are beautiful!

Up, Up High

Les machines à fumée se transforment intérieurement, et vaporisent désormais de l’eau déminéralisée.
-
On entend qui bruissent les fourrés : une créature approche, ses grosses mains jouent avec des bretelles. D’esprit ne le conçoit-elle peut-être pas comme tout entier le sien, mais le corps de cette créature déborde : des poches de graisse l’enflent, des poils font des lianes, des fourmis le picorent.
-
Encore une créature qui penche du tronc. Son second pas balance le premier pour qu’elle maintienne l’axe de sa marche.

Time for Sleep

Sort of jazzy composition written almost exactly a year ago. Hope you enjoy!

noxpox - Why Are They Afraid Of Freedom?

GENESIS   2

I imagined a walk in the woods, which starts out blissfully enough and then ends in darkness and a tangle of aggressive branches and unseen monsters. Hence the cheery sequence, all in C major, that starts off the track which then begins to break down, first with a bit of dissonance before being completely taken over by a low drone that takes the hapless walker into the dark lodge of their dreams. All this was done in Logic, using Arturia's "mallets" plug in and granular effects.

Disquiet Junto Project 0681: Drama Course
The Assignment: Record a piece of music to transform a walk or a run into something theatrical.

I started with a bassline and had a kind of wet step drum. I wanted the bass and drums to swell on and off, two people chasing each other and stopping to look around. The main motif that builds up depicts the chaser getting closer and closer. All but the mastering is done in my old trusted caustic app.
