Octatrack vs Aluminum Foil by Micah Frank
4 playback tracks of aluminum foil and 4 “neighbor” effects tracks. LFOs modulating feedbacks, plate verb params etc.
Ableton recently came to my studio and I showed off Puremagnetik’s Retro Synths. The video is on their home page this month along with an update for Retro Synths.
What happens when you do everything wrong? Digital Blasphemy contains excerpts from an afternoon jam I had in Kyma. Raw and unedited, do what you like with it. Mistreated waveshapers, hyper-resonating pulses, harshly modulating synthetic spectrums run through overdriven compression, non-harmonic ring-modulated frequency controllers…. the list goes on. If it’s wrong, I think I did it.
I personally find it very useful to cut up some bits to make a glitchy (think Alva Noto) kit. Enjoy!
For the Able10 anniversary, I made a Live Pack that expands on some of the kits, grooves and Live Racks in my scrapyard of sounds. I built the song ‘Metropolis’ around the sounds and called in Atarah Valentine to lay down the vocals. The Live Pack is filled with very expressive kits that you can download for free here: http://www.ableton.com/able10-artist-packs
