Never Sleep Again...

It wasn't the plan to do the big 4 over Halloween but if I've already visited Michael and Bubba then it was only natural Freddy would be next. While The Texas Chainsaw Massacre is (in my opinion) the greatest horror movies ever made, A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984) would be my favorite, a warm blanket of a movie.
I wanted to create a sense of claustrophobia, trapped in a boiler room and the dread closing in. To do this I used one of Elphnt's Max for Live devices, whereby I widened the first of the high pitched noises as wide as the device would allow then each of the subsequent noises were brought in closer and closer to the centre. Those noises was an attempt to invoke the sound of Freddy scraping his knives across a pipe. I also wanted to blow all the sounds out like they are in the film...but I think I went to far.
