Week 23 (filament)

By ConfettiTsunami on June 8, 2014 10:03 pm

This week was a bit of a struggle. I almost came to the completion of a track by Wednesday but didn’t like where it had gone. However instead of scrapping the whole thing I stripped down and sampled all the individual instruments to the core elements I liked.
I then added these fundamental samples to a collection of drum racks in ableton live and by triggering the samples with ableton push created a new track from the core ideas of the original one. The majority of sounds are from the OP1 with a sampled 909 for the drums and guitar played by myself and then chopped up for the new track:

Minimal and delicate, progressively perky. Nice job!

If in doubt, sample and chop.  I like the added guitar element.  Ties it together.
