tracks

Another track idea – which came from the #twitterchords project.

New Track: “Sid’s Impeccable Design”

A new track, honoring the memory of Eighties’ lofi digital synths, mainly the name-giving MOS Technology 6581 Sound Interface Device.

“Microambient”: Music is what happens…

…when you’re busy making other plans. Read how a short, nice, ambient track came to be rather accidentally.

Bottom Freezer Update – arrangement finished, first fridge solo recorded

I finally recorded what may well be the first-ever fridge solo in music history – and on the way, finished the arrangement for the track “Bottom Freezer”. Read on for first-hand info how to properly mic a fridge, and on using advanced design methodologies when just writing down a song.

“Bottom Freezer” – a.k.a the track with the fridge solo

Ever heard that someone won the “best fridge player” award in some prestigious magazine’s poll? If there was such a thing, I might be competing for that – enter “Bottom Freezer”, a track with a fridge solo!

Today’s Accomplishment: start of “Aeneis”

Take some very – very – old influences for lyrics, and combine them with Eighties rock music anger: the result is entitled “Aeneis” and is about to be finished. Well not exactly finished – but I managed to record the introduction, sketch out the first section, and compose about all of the song – lyrics still an open topic.

New track: “Shalom Sister” – bringing together tatooed cats, tech POCs and the history of sampling

Again harvesting through old Cubase projects, recording trombone, and learning how to program drums. Including a revisit of the drum tracks from the #twitterchords track “A Tätowierte Katz’”, and a nod to possibly the most important drum break ever.

A productive day: Sachsenbohne first mix, Orgeldings new mix

A first mix of Sachsenbohne took place, and Orgeldings is sounding way better with a new virtual organ!

New Track: Sachsenbohne

Another track got recorded which I had composed yesterday evening – working title: “Sachsenbohne”.

The “Orgeldings” brings atonal counterpoint – performed on a (virtual) church organ
