Wet Shoes

Shoes got wet. I put them in drier. So I recorded and then Ableton'd that shit. Pfft this week, my head hurts.

Hahaha! This is the best. What did you do in Ableton? This is so fantastic.

Mainly chopping the sample. Changing the pitch and speed of the samples, recording, and chopping that. Basically the "sample dicing" technique which I employed in wk 1. Then some granular shit, because I'm all about granular this year, for some reason.

Stutter~; I discovered it for the first time this morning. I feel like a vegan in a vegan cake store.

Love the chopping method.

Man, I haven't touched Max in ages...

Very cool idea, and lots of great sample manipulation.

Slicing, dicing - the very essence of so much interesting music!

(BTW, my post next week will make use of [my casual misinterpretation] of your SC polyrhythmics).
