SITARI - lost in the present/the infinite moment

By george bowles on May 1, 2014 4:24 am

felt really good about last week's submissions, both mine and everyone's in general. so I started working on a new piece the day after I finished up my piece and listened to week 17. ended up with something I think sounds really good! most of it was done on monday the 28th, then 4/29 it was tweaked and edited and mixed some more, and then 4/30 mastered in ableton live because I thought it was sounding a little thin. begun in fl studio (sequenced and vsts, initial mix of beats and pads). more tweaking in soundforge and reaper. ableton really brought out the range of sounds going on though. influenced by pole, vladislav delay, dalek as well as my usual influences like meat beat manifesto, prefuse 73, and a little orbital. (or on other pieces aphex twin, autechre, amon tobin, scorn, etc etc etc)

Wonderful noise, deeply hypnotic.  If you wanted to add something, I could hear a role for a bassline here, at least partway through.

I enjoy it for some reason. It is pretty repetitive though smile  The halfway part is sweet.

yeah I was thinking about overdubbing some analog synth basslines on it... I suppose I might!

yeah, it was meant to be hypnotic/repetitive

Like deep lock grooves.  Trancing.

kinda funny, I have a record that is nearly that same color that always gets stuck in a lock loop lol. (kayo dot - blue lambency downard)

Cool album 8)

The drone loop is ace! Brain-locking mayhem!

thanks! I think I'll but some analog synth bass on parts of this... but I was pretty happy with it as it is too! BRAINLOCK
