PROCESS
20 bars of soundcloud.com/rupertlally "Sediment Layers"
soundcloud.com/rupertlally/sediment-layers-disquiet0189-tonelayer?in=disquiet/sets/disquiet0189-tonelayer

8 bars of soundcloud.com/ahornberg "Digital Frippertronics"
soundcloud.com/ahornberg/digital-frippertronics?in=disquiet/sets/disquiet0189-tonelayer

Loads of flying, fluttery harmonics and shifting undertones as these loops cycled together. Rupert Lally's track loop is 30% right and ahornberg's is 30% left in the mix and they're both blended (smeared?) together by a slight (27% wet) band-pass (1500Hz) resonance filter and a bit of room reverb. They're both in related keys (G and D, it seemed) so their ensuing conversation took some pretty turns. Put my guitar down this week in favor of Propellerhead's Figure app for iPad (the latest update's "arpeggiator" has become a tiny addiction). I programmed 8 bar synth and bass loops in the key of G at 96bpm and played the percussion pad live as the track streamed along with the sources on my Acid timeline. Figure ran via Audiobus into Flux:FX's "Multi-Verb" preset located in the app's stock Ambient bank.
