Fun one! My prompt was from a roll of 14 / 10: DCAGAF 4882. It created a four bar phrase, that I recorded with a three voice Aaalto set up. I cut it up a whole lot in the OP-1 4 track, then ran the whole thing back through Phonogene to chop it further. I don’t have a deep thought about this one, my implementation leaned technical this week. Feels like a technical kind of day.

Only had about 2 hours but had to give this one a shot anyway:

Rolled 13 for melody and 4 for rythm. I used SuperCollider to genrate the resulting sequence as midi and fed it to my TX7 (the bell sound). I added some variation that will occur after one complete cycle and guarantee that the cycle wont repeat for 10 minutes or so.
Threw a beat under it and made some pads with the Mopho :slight_smile:

My first Junto! (Apologies for the clicky track, got 2 child free hours so had to rush).

I rolled 18 + 5. Which gave me a straightforward melody. Decided to play it on guitar. So sequenced some drums in ezdrummer and layered a simple chord progression which was doused in Neunaber Wet reverb. For the lead I played with the notes generated and in a couple of sections repeated the phrase with palm mutes then fully picked. This had wet reverb again with the Catalinbread Belle Epoch tape delay on it.

A useful workout for a Sunday!

So this is the first thing of any significance that I’ve done post-baby and post-reinstallation of noise table. It’s also partly an exercise in getting to know my new QuBit Mixology module.

So glad you could join in. “Post-baby” was a long time for us, as well.

With no 20-sided dice to be found, I generated random numbers from a lottery number generator and picked two numbers less than 20. This gave me 7 for pitches and 10 for beats. I used this to create my backing track. I then added a drum pattern with suitable filtering and modulated fading synth to complement the backing track.

I rolled 10 and 5, the star of the show was a Klavis Twin Waves, also my first song with it.

My third take at this (one shot), drums and melody sequenced. Everything else was enveloped and knob twiddled.

Had a lot of fun with this one! 12 & 18. This was my first play with the Ornament and Crime, triggered externally so I could get the polymeters going. Recorded in one shot, ran out of patch cables.

rolled a 1 and 12. so i got notes A F E E and rhythm 448888 (altho i misread as three 8s)
appropriate notes as the nearest chord is FACE and i’ve got pretty bad tooth/ear/headache at the mo.
made in a daze as i got back from rhodes at 2 this morning and had work today.
the drone is from the plane sound. the beat is from a (literally) shitty hotel bin closing. tried to do 10bpm but it was in audacity so fuzzily quantized…
pitch shifts just done in audacity, beat mastered a bit in audition, extra delay and echo reversal stuff in audacity.
pad made from the plane drone at 6-8 octaves higher with izotope vinyl, six string ambience, podfarm fx

As shown, I rolled a 13 and a 14. Notes were DCAGAF, beats were a half note then two quarter notes.

Then I thought I’d roll four 10-sided dice to determine tempo, getting 99 and 93. That led to 192bpm but the track has a halftime feel, I think.

This track was recorded quickly using a Jomox kick and the 707’s high hats through chorus and Space Echo pedals.

I played the chords on my MIDI guitar and ran them through an Oddity pad, before adding a bassline.

The track opens with D minor but I decided to experiment with a bassline in G, as I remembered that I find those two chords hard to distinguish.

The result, like Dungeons and Dragons, doesn’t really resolve.

And, again like D&D, I found myself in a daydream every time I’d hit play. If there hadn’t been a deadline of Monday night, I mightn’t have ever exported this result.

Random GAB

  • I rolled a 17 and a 19.
  • The base line throughout is the sequence generated by the dice roles. It took 12 bars to repeat.
  • On top of it I put a bII V I Dorian b2 chord progression, the airy pads are whole tone chords. Both contained G A B.
  • Didn’t have enough time to put a melody or any riffs over the top.
  • The 12 bar phrase repeats with variations over the top.
  • The 12 bar phrase is played in double time a couple times.
  • Sounds came from Alchemy and Sonovox EightyEight 2.
  • The drums were a couple loops from Logic.

No time for a description right now – I’ll try to get to it later.

I rolled 11 & 60, which gave me 6 pitches, and 4 durations totaling a 4/4 measure. This repeats rather quickly in only three measures. So the material was rather limited to work with.

So worked by elimination - pulling out notes from the line and distributing them around three instruments: Hocket, sometimes clear sometimes abstract.

It was pretty much done when the connection to games (D&D, dice) struck me, and had the inspiration to add the kids.

Beeeeeedaaaaa-Balarrrga!!!

This project was a great excuse to get more familiar with the TB-03 and TR-09, which are pretty good new hardware emulations of the 303 and 909. I took a pretty literal approach for composition, rolling a 2 for AFEE (the notes on the 303, although I switch the octaves up a bit) and a 12 for ♩♩♪♪♪♪, which lines up pretty straightforwardly. I also decided to add my own random approach for making the drum pattern: starting with 4 on the floor for the bass drum, I then added the low tom by rolling a die to see how many hits it would get and then making that many rolls to find the beat (1-16) that each strike fell on. I did the same for most of the other drums, although I did end up making some minor edits to that. This song is so basic, it’s in mono and only uses the TB-03 (delay is built in) and TR-09!

Rolled 11 and 5. Used Reaktor Blocks. Sample from the DragonStrike VHS game, circa 1993.

I don’t know. I kind of have a thing for owlbears.
