Sau gute Version! Aber ich würde sie glaube ich doch nicht meinen Kinderchen vorspielen ;-)

The combination of bass drone and noise is so well done!

Disquiet Junto Project 0571: Child’s Play
The Assignment: Make music inspired by a nursery rhyme.

I opted for "Fuchs Du hast die Gans gestohlen" (Fox you stole the goose), a German nursery rhyme from around 1824 based on an older folksong. Which seems to be, by what so ever strange reason, also very popular in Japan. It was written by Ernst Anschütz, whom you may know via "O Tannenbaum". Because I am just in love with some presets (yes) in Pigments, which use wavetables based on the MicroQ I once had (for the interested ones: Playhugger Microns https://www.plughugger.com/pigments-microns.html ), I currently do everything with these pads, and the results may be doubted. Anyway, I went for a slow ambient pads arrangement of this song, using only the original melody material plus some probabilities. At the end it did not sound like a lullaby at all (and does not say anything about nursery rhymes), but I liked it very much for what it is. At one point I added some sweet bells and stuff, but I always went back to this somehow brutal and unkrakenkrafty version.
