Sound design is great, love the bubbly synths. Strudel looks like a lot of fun - curious to hear what you found unique in its approach to sequencing ? I know that tidal cycles also have a very original approach, are they similar?

Orson Welles is such a great choice for this, I like how you processed him into the space(or if that reverb and EQ/slight-distortion was already there, it shows you have perfect taste in sample selection). Wow, just took a look at Strudel(quite a sample library available there, too), sounds like you've got an insanely proficient grasp of it(thanks for introducing me to it via this track, i'll have to give it a go for one of these weeklybeats). A very tastefully orchestrated techno track for sure!

Thanks! The wubby synth started out as an acid baseline but I decided it was more fun with a slower attack and more delay.

It's actually a port of tidal cycles I believe so very similar, it's just a bit more accessible because it runs in the browser instead of needing to install Haskell and supercollider. What I find interesting about it is the way you build upwards

[opps pressed submit before I was done typing]

...the way you build upwards from a small idea e.g. four notes: "gb d b gb" and can add transformations to that idea to give the song structure e.g. .add("12 7 5".slow(8))
this example (transposing a sequence every 8 bars) isn't mind-blowing exactly but the concept works for almost everything in strudel and you can nest this to get really complex patterns.

Thanks!
Yeah, I love the tone of Welles' voice, it's such theatrical accent. I think I bandpassed and added some reverb but most of the crackle comes from the original recording.

this has a great liquid mood in it. The more experimental stuff and delays create a nice contrast for the 4/4-beat. The Welles speech is the icing on the cake, great!

These percussions sound so cool!
Also Orson Welles audio creates this philosophical atmosphere

Ooh a Strudel submission! Very nice. I've been meaning to try that out :-)

Thanks! I'm fairly new to Strudel so it was a 'delay on everything' kind of thing.

Yeah Strudel gives a really unique perspective on rhythm, really good for interesting percs

I can absolutely recommend. It's super easy to get started and the tutorials are excellent. Very interesting feeling to be flexing the creative muscles with code.
