looptober process
I liked when @makingarecord described what he did to make his, so I'm going to start doing this when I think it may be interesting!
this one started with me drumming onto a drum pad with a slipper on top and trying to get something with, ironically, a minimal cold wave drum machine feel. that's recorded to a loop pedal, which I then built over with some moog matriarch tones and wrote it to my hand recorder. I then did a bit of audio editing to get the levels right in audacity.
looptober notes
I'm feeling pretty bleh about this looptober so decided to start doing prompts with @ranjit ! this one is pulled from oblique strategies. I wanted to just pick a note and see how interesting I could get the tone using the four oscillators in my matriarch. ended up with a few more notes and don't know if how lush it sounded on the machine translated into recording but it is late and my brick is nearing a wall

I'm trying to touch the keyboard as little as possible lately and not use the sequencer at all if I can. so, I'm routing a bunch of outputs into other inputs and, right now, trying to get to a mechanical spacey sound—still not totally sure what's going on with this but here's what the matriarch looks like hah
looptober note
my friend made this cool audio visualization tool here: https://disambiguo.us/scenes/spiro and for his birthday we were asked to take videos of ourselves listening to music and using it. so, here is a basic sequence on my matriarch with it. ((and here's my video, don't tell him yet))
@christa hey this sounds really nice
@d6 thank you! I was trying to rip off badalamenti. not sure if I managed but I like the vibe nonetheless
@christa i can totally see badalamenti -- i was getting goblin (which isn't quite the same but probably adjacent)
@christa excellent, love the big buuuuaaawang
