Disquiet Junto Project 0181: Instrumental Dream

Stringdreamer [disquiet0181-instrumentaldream]

My old Yamaha Classical probably dreams of nothing more than being owned by someone who can actually play it… I like to think it dreams of being played like this.

My other favourite instrument is a piece of software by Audiobulb, called ambient v.03.

This is a few bars of my attempted playing recorded and improvised on in real time using the software.

Then double tracked, one section tripled and pitch-shifted, the intro ‘enhanced’ using Bluecat and the ending made from an enhanced cut-off snippet from the triple tracked section.

(I planned something completely different, using the old Hofner jazz I’ve had since the 60s and an e-bow, but time got away so this was thrown down in a real hurry using a recording of the Yamaha.)
