RE: EXPLAIN your 10th Anniversary Birthday 30 second tune
"30 sec from Improv in Dm #37"
My submission is from one in a series of meditations done either solo or
with other players, most of whom have no experience looping other then what
I impose on them. Some pieces are based on pre-programmed triggered MIDI
loops from either a workstation keyboard (K2000) or Ableton Live with
little
on no live looping.
Others, like this one, are fully spontaneous. In this instance, I
developed
a rhythmic 'drone' pad on the Repeater using voice and hand sounds and
several passes of processed guitar (VG-88 v.2). The other players
ad-libbed
over this bed. My function was to establish and maintain a musical
environment and leave room for them to dialogue. Open mics captured the
room ambience which can be heard in the background. The result can be
surprising; from fully chaotic to unexpectedly splendid.
The entire piece developed slowly over 11 minutes; all in all, rather
short.
I hope you enjoy it.
