Niaventi Dub

S****y dubstep, circa 2008
Started out messing around with Operator, making different sounds. Ended up with: wobble bass, BBC square, dusty organ and voxy. Used the Greek Scales PDF, picked out a minor scale and a note: Gb Niaventi (hence the name of the track), came up with some loops, including the main, off-kilter 5-bar melody.
I think I came up with too many melodic ideas and tried to cram them all into one track. When I realized things were getting unwieldy, ballooning over 8 minutes, I analyzed the structure of an old Loefah track and tried to fit everything to that. Hence the pause every 16 bars. It almost works. Still too much going on, but it almost feels song-like...
