Dreaming in a tunnel

Yesterday’s joystick performance with different sounds. 2005-11-23

Sleeping in a tunnel

Still more of the joystick controller experiments. 2005-11-22

Just a ghost

Almost the same setup as the last two days, but this time, the only sound generator is the filter itself. 2005-11-21

Another take

More playing around with the joystick setup. I changed the synth patch on this one, other than that, everything else is the same. 2005-11-20

Different noises.

I don’t know about you, but I’m having lots of fun with these noises. I’m using a Junxion from STEIM (the old version) to control both a synth and a filter. Cubase lets me transform the MIDI input on different channels, so I can control more than one thing with the same gesture. There’s a […]

Twinkle

Another joystick piece. I’m starting to get a feel for the type of control that’s possible with this. 2005-11-18

Some more noises

I’m doing a bit more experimentation with using a game joystick as a MIDI controller. I’m going to follow this line for a while to try to discover what’s possible. Some of them will be more musical than others, but I’m having fun. 2005-11-17

Thinking

Some more background ambience. Play this at an extremely low volume and just go about your day. 2005-11-16

Wind

Just a simple track full of seemingly random atmospherics. Actually, it’s not particularly random, I just worked hard to make it feel that way. All of the sounds were chosen for their harmonic richness, but they are hard to identify as specific notes. This is also a totally “pure” mix – no compressors, limiters, reverb, […]

Dark November Morning

This is a simple little piece that combines phasing lines and some random generation of sounds along with it. It fits well with this grey November day in Stockholm. 2005-11-14 I’ve reached the 3/4 point today. There’s only 92 more tracks to go. Now would be a good time to consider a donation.
