4500

As the sun sets on 100 days, I am looking forward to spending some time revamping my performance system, and experimenting a bit more with some new sampling ideas that I’ve come up with over the course of the project.

Thanks for listening.

Once more with gusto. An attempt at combining the chaos noise with a beat and bass. A non-food item.

A somewhat dizzying state at the end of long haul. As of last week, I was supposed to be done on Sunday, but here I have taken the whole weekend as a break, and now I am finding myself confronted with a somewhat substantial writer’s block for short, one-day pieces. Full of ideas for larger scale projects, but drawing blanks for how to finish this thing.

So today, we spin in a dizzying loop. Perhaps the next two will come out more conclusive.

And on other days, there isn’t do much a melody between the noise as there is a solitary hum, and the occasional intergalactic disturbance.

As our program comes to a close, you may find yourself browsing for other stations, and perhaps discovering some uncanny emotion in the static between bands.

Slightly off-schedule again, and as a result, a morning jam. Experimenting with no-input cables as a means of producing old-vinyl-like sounds, and exercising in sparseness.

A remix of sorts; yesterday’s disquiet track distilled through granulation and repetition. Synthesized by looping the melody through a few different patches, and then processed/performed with Block Party.

Another junto, happily. The prompt: loop a melody, and remove one or more notes each pass through the loop. I came up with a somewhat longer melody, so I decided to cap the loops to 4 passes, to keep the length within reasonable range of the 45 second limit. I added a bit of reversed reverb on top at the end to glue the whole thing together.

Number 92. A continuation of the refinement of block party tones. As with last time, the idea started far from the destination. A memento of the adventure, rather than a documentary of the journey.

10 more days. It’s remarkable how much lighter the source material for this one was than the final output. Blues gone dead. Perhaps a lighter rendition of the guitar parts tomorrow.
