MOTM 32 ounce Glurpy Drone

2006-03-07 by thomas white

Hey all,

Thanks to all for the tips about Glorp patches and especially Robert Rich for making it all sound so damn good and inspiring. I finally got some time to sit down and patch something up tonight based on some of your tips and I have posted the results on my website via the link below. All MOTM with exception to some Digitech rack effects, Encore FS & EG, Dual Oakley Equinoxe, Blacet Time machine and Final Filtre. Mostly sine waves and modulation (sine waves from 440 and 420 filters, mainly heard in the air-raid-ish chord sound that *slowly* rises and falls thanks to the day-and-a-half LFO on the 320). I was trying to simulate the sample I heard of the future Cloud Generator at NAMM some years back with all the sine waves but didn't quite hit the mark.

I am really happy with the results of patching merrily away and the piece I have posted is about 18 mins long mp3. Headphones are optional but recommended for sure. Check it out after a long day and I am sure you will find yourself relaxed. I know I was relaxed making it.

I sure can't wait for that Robert Rich patch book and others in the series. Here is the link to the file:

This is a really good piece. This one definately goes into the "keeper" bin.

Hear, hear!  (haha, couldn't resist.)  I heartily agree - I listened to 
it twice in a row as I was reading email this morning; then started it 
again before I had to go on to other things.  I really love purely 
"electronic" sounds, i.e. non-imitative, timbral glory.  FWIW, I don't 
particularly like electronic music that is harsh sounding - dissonant, 
timbrally unpleasant (which is subjective I realize), etc.  Subotnik is 
a good example - some of his pieces have sections that I like, Silver 
Apples of the Moon for instance.  But much of his work, though 
brilliant and very talented; I just don't enjoy listening to - studying 
maybe, but not just listening to.  But this piece is right up my alley 
- cool, interesting, timbrally rich; but simple and pleasing to listen 
to.  I realize this isn't necessarily a completed piece of music, but 
it sounds like the beginning or foundation of something really good.

Ok, so there's my $0.02.  If you ever record a CD, let me know!

p.s.  I realize "timbral", and "timbrally" are not real words (at least 
according to dictionary.com); but they should be!

I agree with your comment about, Subotnik s Silver Apples of the Moon . I have been listening to it lately and its kinda hard to listen to, though I really
