In a Strange Land

By rdomain on November 27, 2022 3:01 am

One take modular synth performance. 

LXR Drum module, Make Noise DPO and Elektron Model Cycles as the main sound sources. Maybe Mutable Instruments Elements also?? Strymon Starlab as the main reverb.

Here's a snippet of the patch in action.  The focus was more on the spider though. Heh.  Give my IG a follow if you're so inclined. That'd be awesome.

4:10 - on turns into a completely different piece- LOVE IT - so beautiful + horrifying somehow.

Static footsteps! The low drone from 3:40 kinda sounds like electronic throat singing. We go into dark territory from 4:00, something very sinister is approaching.

In a strange land indeed, and near the end not necessarily a warm or welcoming one.  It's all fun and games until you tumble into a dark alien pit of despair.  smile

Not the Spider or Cycles.  Cycles was making the higher melodic stuff in the first part of the song.  It sounds like the Make Noise DPO into the Strymon Starlab.
