organ.dump
What the hell is this? well it was the score to my most recent release called organ.dump . I drew out the continual lines and added dots where each crossed over. I had no preconceived idea how I was going to interpret the score. I chose 5 lines because I was thinking about perfect fifths and chords (which dont need to have 5 notes but i kinda like chords with more than 3 notes in them). So I started to brainstorm and came up with the following 5 ideas:
1) each line represented a single note melody, if the line went up I would change the pitch up, down I would go down.
2) the rise and fall of the line would correspond to the high or low rocking of my wah pedal. I would pick 5 pitches at random
3) lines corresponded to the amount of feedback set on the tape delay. almost all the tracks were recorded through the tape delay
4) volume. lines would indicate the rise and fall of the volume of what ever note I was playing.
5) i dont remember now. oops
As you can see from the dates represented as the track titles, this took me almost a year to finally finish. No real reaason for the long delay other than I did kinda want to approach this with time to reflect inbetween.
Each track was recorded live and is 5 layers. I kinda wanted them all to be the same length but as there is no time signified on the score each time I sat down a new duration just happened.
I wanted to explore the sound of this chord organ . Gosh is it loud.
