New Trippy Song/Video w/ Nord Lead 4 Sequenced by Octatrack
Story:
I discovered a space-time distortion while visiting Chicago. The location of the anomaly is at track 8 at Union Station. Here is the video to prove it. The longer you watch, the trippier it gets.
If you'd like mastered version of this track as a single you can pick it up here https://markmosher.bandcamp.com
Enjoy.
Artist Notes:
This audio and video was captured in one real-time pass to a Zoom Q4N. The primary source video for 90% of the visuals is from the overhead view of the live studio session. The only other footage is a video field recording from Chicago's Union Station also recorded on the Zoom Q4N. The audio was not edited when I added video effects in post.
The audio field recording was extracted the Zoom Q4N video shot at Union Station. It's mangled pretty heavily in this piece put if you listen closely, you can hear an automated voice informing you that you are at track 8 and 10. Interestingly, the speakers at the station are not directional and the audio is at different loop lengths - so just wandering about between these gates is a trippy polyrhythmic treat.
Instrumentation and Instrumentalities:
The piece is a combination of live sequencing and live performance. The Octatrack is used to host drum samples and recording. It is also used to MIDI sequence 3 synth slots on the Nord Lead 4 including MIDI automation. I perform live using all 4 slots on the Nord plus manipulate the Octatrack in real-time. Lots of real-time sound design and morphing. All the groovy synth sounds are exclusive to Nord Lead 4 all being created in real-time (meaning no synth audio was pre-recorded).

Got it. Didn't realize this section existed as I hang out in the Lead 4 forum which is where I posted this stuff in the past. I'll post here from now on thanks.Mr_-G- wrote:Please, let's post in the right forum. Thanks.
