PLAY ARRANGE COMPOSE
TIMEBOX 4
Intention:
I will experiment with the combination of these so far and then see if there are any other variations of chords to add
Outcome:
Recorded a loop of the CICADA TONES with an intermitent CRUNCH
Set a free 64 bar pattern to pad 2 (no metronome, no count in, no quantize)
Recorded in the CICADA TONES loop and gradually introduced the BITCRUSHED OCTAVES
In a copyed track I overdubbed this pattern with the PHASER FX CHORDS in BANK C
Bounced into ableton and filed under the PLAY ARRANGE COMPOSE folder under Leon’s Practice
Notes:
An unexpected connection was when the BITCRUSHED OCTAVES came in syncopated with the chords
You could experiment with restricting yourself to these chords and creating a different mood
