In Memory of a Stranger

Time is really passing so fast...
This is my second attempt at this challenge. I'm not sure my head is completely in it, but maybe that is part of the point. Just trusting the process even when you don't feel like it, and then sometimes beautiful things happen, especially on the moments you felt you weren't struck by inspiration. What a gift!
So excited to hear the music that you have all been making!
The other day, a dead pidgeon was laying in front of my hallway door, this music is dedicated to it.
Process log:
This piece of music started with an experiment popping bubblewrap. A good portion (of the few things) that i've done on the computer this year i have been using short delays to make exciters, karrplus strong synthesis, i think they call it. I had 8 tracks of bubblewrap textures with different pitches. I really love the way you can turn a texture tonal and all the places in between. the texture sounds a little bit harsh i think recording these tiny clicky kind of sounds is really difficult. The "melody" was made with a reed from an accordeon blown directly which gives you a lot of control of the timbre. i did just a few recordings, then recycled it with timestretching, pitchshifting and so on. theres a bass sound from another accordeon reed but plucked.
