Ok, I’ve got two for the playlist this week. I kept the L/R format for the sake of the project. I’m assuming that’s so it’s easy to grab two mono tracks for manipulation. Whoever takes these on next should probably do some panning work to make it feel more natural.
For my first submission, Used these swimming bells from @Ruairi, and frankly had a hard time adding something to it without eliminating the feel he created. I wanted to keep that, so I dialed it way back and simply added some sample modulation from one of my field recordings of a stream.
I’ve been playing Dark Souls for the first time, and just rang both of the bells of awakening, then that primordial serpent “Kingseeker Frampt” showed up. I fell into his little hidey hole once and died. The end result of this piece made me think about what his ascent from the depths up to the surface would have been like after hearing the bells of awakening. #nerd
@ntrier sounded frustrated in his loud organ explosions for last weeks disquiet. He most certainly isn’t the only one feeling frustrated in these times of frustration, so I figuratively/literally echoed his frustrations, and added a bit of my own.
I took his original track, put a delay on it, and mangled the signal using various eurorack modules, first we hear the Schlappi Engineering 100 Grit, followed by the Bastl Dark Matter with a Trogotronic Gran Fury feedback loop, then the Erica Synths/Gamechanger Audio Plasma drive.
Fun as always! Stoked for next week!
