Trig Discipline posted:Nice! Sounds like the soundtrack to a Cyriak short except happier. that's surprisingly specific, but it works. there haven't been any further submission details yet have there? I made a track but it was short and bad so I made another and that one was also short and bad, but if I submit both it's almost like I made a single, longer, better track right?

I have been mostly making sample-based hip-hop beats lately and using my Minilogue/Bass Big Muff for basslines so I don't think that would really fit with the theme of this compilation haha.

There's a theme? It's just a fun goon thing to be an excuse to make some music and put it together, no need to over think it.

Yeah the "single synth" thing was kind of a theme and I'm using my MC-202 but I'm also using drums because w/e it's not a competition or anything, there's no rules.

Yeah I didn't do a single-synth thing at all, and I like my track too much to change it.

I'm seriously thinking I may expand that into an EP or something. I've got some other songs that, when you kinda stick them all together, would work as a story about a young couple who died in a car accident and woke up as computerized minds in a spaceship full of hibernating people.

Oh and just a funny side note: I totally didn't intend for that to sound like the "phone off the hook" or dial tone sound initially. It's actually just some random synth from the new Arturia collection run through the beat slicer in Effectrix, and it just accidentally happened that the first interval being played sounded just like a dial tone.

Ha, really? Wow, that was perfect to the point of me wondering if you sampled it. Good show.

Yeah it was actually in the track for a while and I was working on other stuff before I realized how much it sounded like a dial tone. Just a weird coincidence!

stillvisions posted:Melodies and tunes are just the music establishment keeping my new form of music down. I've invented my own scale and harmony and am the best composer in the world using it. "Aleksi Perälä, whose work for Rephlex and his own AP Musik has continuously sought to push electronic music's boundaries, has created what might be his most extraordinary idea to date. Alongside Grant Wilson Claridge (who runs Rephlex) he has invented a custom musical scale called The Colundi Sequence, an alternative to the standard musical scales most music is composed from. Rather than dividing the keyboard into octaves with semitones, the pair chose specific frequencies to work with, making a scale of 128 resonant frequencies. These frequencies were selected through a variety of methods, including experimentation and taking from ideas on philosophy, psychology, science, human bio-resonance and mysticism."
