Deroost-disquiet0396
from krseward Hosted by krseward
Recording my humming an original melody/riff/whatnot into old hand me down padlike gizmo. Manipulated and rerecorded in GliderVerb running on said gizmo. Edited for length & levels with fades in and out, then normalized—all in Audacity running on actual if ageing computer. So the manipulations were initially done in real time with a portion of that real time rerecording selected to make this. Clarity/statement of original melody not at all a priority nor is this a classicist aiming for a theme and variations approach. The distended bits of the melody were as much a basic source material as the humming itself. The GVerb delay added some canonical quality to things but was more used with a textural/time & pitch distortion approach in mind. Mostly just the rhythms remain, some sounding like “chicken picking”—thus the more formalistic reason for this being called “Deroost”. Having just moved out of a high view of town also figures into it. Done for Disquiet Junto 396.
