When I think of glitches, I mostly think of interruptions, stopping something in the middle before it’s finished. This is annoying on your computer, but in music you can use the stops and starts and glitches to make something new.
I usually cringe at stock sounds that come with music gear, I’d rather make something completely new, however my 4ms Stereo Triggered Sampler came with some pretty good samples, perfect for cutting to shreds.
This track is focused mostly on two banks of stock samples I found in my sampler module, I used misc other control devices to constantly mess with the start time, sample length, sample selection, and pitch of these banks, glitching them beyond recognition. I threw in some fairly randomized oscillator sequences as well to add some extra chaos.
Some of the sounds I came up with I think I could certainly use in some more structured music.
