02/27 blure dyel

 0227 blure dyel

color study; video first

to change things up, this one started with the video instead of music. I originally was meaning to make a long video, put music to it, then back into Davinci Resolve and chop it up, music and all. It didn't seem like a good thing to do once I got to the chopping up stage, so I didn't.

I'll save that idea for another one.

in the music, I tried something I heard done recently: a repeated arpeggio occasionally put through a modulator gate; only I did 2 different patterned gates and mixed between those and the ungated original; it's kind of subtle, but hopefully it makes it less boring to listen to.

i'm so happy with the kicks that I use.. bc I made them from scratch. the process was so simple that I'm embarrassed to give it away.. a sine oscillator ramping from ~150Hz down to 1Hz very quickly. that's it. no reverb, no filtering, no transient shaping, nothing. just that. crazy how pure and useful it is. I just throw it into a sampler and play it as is. I stole that idea from Alva Noto, btw. Who probably swiped it from someone else.
