This is a variation on yesterday’s track with new instruments and a different space. 2005-09-27

Here’s some more phasing loops, placed in Laukyrkan. 2005-09-26

Just some sounds moving through Gasverket. Inspired by Morton Feldman, but sounding more like David Tudor. 2005-09-25

Some slow phasing loops placed in the ballroom at Drottningholm Palace in Stockholm. The notes for the melodies were chosen for how they triggered resonances in the reverb. I used Rayverb for this one because it is much more “tweakable.” 2005-09-24

Continuing with the hand-made approach. This is a variation on yesterday’s piece. 2005-09-23

Continuing with the “hand made” approach. Once again, no generative processes here, just me playing with sounds. 2005-09-22 On this track, I’m using the amazing Crystal synth plugin from Green Oak software. Even more amazing – it’s free. Their Delayifier plugin is buried in this track somewhere as well.

No loops, no feedback, no self-modulating processes on this one. Just me improvising with the cistern. 2005-09-21

I changed the order of some of the processors and came up with this. 2005-09-20

Same basic setup as the last few, but the tempo is faster, and it hasn’t been placed in any sort of acoustic space. This is just the pure feedback and delays in all their glory. 2005-09-19

And now we’re in Caen. 2005-09-18
