The Slicer excites a pattern within the held notes..
Applying various tempo and strum approaches..
So I sat with the desire.
“Set an 8 bar loop”
MIDI locked right off the back of the Mas+
“G inversion”
Fall to the E minor
Rise to the C major,
Walk one more step up the ladder and land on D major..
I had these little,,umm,,, micro-rhythms…
Let the Slicer Slice, Slicer’s gonna slice, lay the root string I mentioned before..
Then another 8 bars.
Low-level thump, covering that bass space..
Enjoy the repetition.
Not a song nor a sketch.
Nothing but a sound check.
Within the Mas+ I began to add stereo Beat Delay, to the ping-pong sliced track..
Then I ended up with something new altogether..
Not AI.
The human is still steering,,it’s just,,,
I don’t know…
I do not know..
An hour in the headphones does the soul some good..
Word…
If you can get somewhere, it can be very satisfying…
Freal…
Make plans ahead and move how you need to move.. for the pursuit of happiness.. all that jazz..
But if I can forget about building for one hour..
And if I can actively play in the moment…
Well fuck you..
That was the journey and it’s up to each individual to pursue happiness in their own unique fashion..
It’s up to you.
Up to me.
And if you do a self inventory and find parts lacking??
Well it won’t be that.
It won’t be the joy that you can find alone..
You’d be a punk-bitch if you gave that up..
For sure
