It's a little late for submissions - I know. Anyway, I had some good ideas ... I don't know if anybody else used the fan as synth bass, but I did. I also, after three weeks of hard work managed to understand what a wavetable is. I used a little piece of mr. Bowmans recitation of the poem as the soundshaping material. It sounds a little bit like an organ.
I don't know if anybody is interested in listening or commenting. If you don't do that, I'm fine with it. This is merely a sketch - maybe 20 percent of a song.

I have to say, this seems very interesting, the change in the vocal, how did you accomplish this?

Its called SBVI (Sound to Brain to Voice Interface) one of the cheapest plugins available, but has a steep learning curve. (Mostly free, though if you pay a teacher it can get as well pricey...; - )

I always had the feeling there are musicians who serve all people, and musicians who mainly serve musicians (who in turn can serve all people). Stockhausen served the Beatles and Björk for example...
I always want to open doors, but some doors are scary as it seems, and that was my biggest surprise, that my piece created some horror associations - for me it was more on the calm side in the end...;-)
Good artists copy; great artists steal is from some where?
I think it should be

And of course my rating is deserved as it is, I am never really that happy with my own work, I could always polish it for ages. But as for you, it is a good motivation to just do a piece, finish it and leave it...

Hi Clueless! I used two periods/waves of the vowel 'ee' in the word 'sweet' - the first 'sweet' in the poem. I can give you a better explanation a little bit later, maybe. I'm a little bit busy right now. (You can have a look at the image (time selection) if you want to.)

Sorry, should have been clearer with my question.A Future in Noise wrote: ↑Wed Feb 05, 2020 11:15 CETOr maybe I misunderstood you. What do you mean by "change in the vocal"?
The vocal now seems to be sung with an accent change, or is this just me.
I know Leonard spoke with an american accent , now it appears different?

I try to listen to as much music as possible, not really taken by a lot of the commercial music, apart from Sleaford Mods and a few others.
I like a very diy dirty aesthetic, bit broken, rusty etc, too much clinical sounds to alien
I still collect weird things like university band cassettes and Asian music, I have a wonderful collection of Hilife music from Ghana which can take away any negativity
I'm a bit
