roll over Berio (and tell Stockhausen the news)

By Jim Wood on March 25, 2016 3:15 pm

Basic concept derived from Kevan Atkins' post from week 9. My mis-interpretation of his SC patch uses M4L LFOs controling elements in 3 Live Operators (drones at F and C): fine tuning, fixed frequency and algorhythm. Additional voice fragments (me) effected by ring-modulation (also frequency-modulated with an LFO).

I'm a sucker for drones and LFOs smile   Great to hear a different style from you too!

once it gets to the one third point, i was engrossed. i'm not sure i get all of the concept, but sounds interesting.

Damn. A wonderfully focussed but very engaging work. A lot more interesting than the original thing I did.

Also, I really should upgrade my copy of Live to Suite.

Cool atmosphere! Sounds like I'm inside a creature's belly yikes

I do enjoy a good drone once in awhile and this is an excellent one.  Love the dissonant elements that come in.  They create a nice sense of tension.

Very melty!

Spooky, makes me think of a horror movie scene, the atmosphere is very well done here.

It was mainly process, something I don't usual do.

I been getting into dissonance more and more lately. Adds some bite.

Thanks all! I really appreciate your comments.

Nice, cinematic and eerie, interesting process.

I like the effect the LFOs have, I feel like I'm in a rainbow powered monorail smile  Nice job!

Lots of sad robots discussing a fallen friend......

Hmm… rainbow-powered monorail, sad robots -- you guys have too much free time ::) Thanks for listening!

Exquisite piece, Jim.  It's like sticking one's head in a pleasantly warm ham radio receiver.
