Strange Minds 2
The second in a monthly series of experiments and improvisations. As always, play loud on a good system, to appreciate the full range of frequencies.

New configurations?
In a move away from computer generated music and software synthesizers in general, I have adopted some new methods, or perhaps more accurately returned to methods I used back in the early 1980’s.
Live processing of tape based source recordings, CV control of the Passive Operator and much left to chance, as opposed to pre-programming.
I’m looking forward to many happy and unrepeatable accidents in sound.

Minilab ‘Attended’
Feel free to download the 24 bit audio (click the three dots next to the player) and image for your own playback system.
This was created with multiple stems of audio, each from a different mini synth, such as the Bugbrand Postcard Weevil, Mute Synth 1 etc. The stems were looped and arranged so that they played back in random order as each one finished. They were then fed into a series of repeaters, delays, modulators, filters and gates in order to create a semi-generative piece. The repeaters and gates were adjusted in realtime to try to disturb the flow.
