DAY 15: s o n i c b r a t

"Venir à la Maison"
Original Version:

Remixed Version:

Tempo: 75 Bpm
Colour: Tinted Green

Gears: All sounds from KORG Radias, KORG Kaoss Pad III, Drums from Reaktor 5

We are at the mid of this project. It's been fun though taxing. Two versions, version one is without drums and version two is with drums. Sampled 4 tracks onto KP3, played an EP patch on the Radias, improvising real time during recording and the drums are added post using Reaktor 5.

Feel free to comment.

DAY 12: s o n i c b r a t

"Reconstruction"


The reconstruction of a character
Is to disintegrate yourself within...
There in after to work on the foundation
As such it is, in fact, deconstruction...

Tempo: 85
Colour: Metallic

Gears: KORG Radias, KORG Kaoss Pad III, Humbucker, Reaktor 5, faulty connections; old vocal samples I've recorded.

Today's composition came without much thought, just switch my stuffs on and started recording. It's all about layering and try to paint the sub-conscious.

DAY 11: s o n i c b r a t

"Nuages de Sucrerie de Coton"


The shadows palmed my eyes from the blazing sunlight...
Bearing the heat for me like a mother shielding her child from adversities...

Tempo: 85 Bpm
Colour: Pastel

Gears: KORG Radias, a little Humbucker and KORG Kaoss Pad III; Plogue Bidule

Listen to it softly... it's meant to be a quiet piece... Sampled into the Kaoss Pad III by parts and played live during recording. Guitar drone added post. It's a tough one today. I did 3 songs and the first two just didn't speak anything so I dumped them...

Feel free to comment.

DAY 10: s o n i c b r a t

"Le Tour de Nuit"


Taking the night ride alone
Stuck in a time capsule
I wish I can speed up time

Tempo: 100 Bpm
Colour: White streaks

Gears: KORG Radias, KORG Kaoss Pad III

Using the same motive of my previous composition, I've developed the song further with a denser arrangement plus changes to the structure. It's the first time I am using the KORG Radias seriously. Nothing was sequenced except the drums, which was heavily sound designed. The song was played live during recording. There's a bit of other sound designs in it as well to paint the picture. Tune was passed through the reversed delay in KP3, and the drums through graining.
