Resampling and Negative Space

Exploring sparse chord progressions, resampling/reversing main synth patch as a texture and transition layer with ‘dirty’ editing. The fun part here was listening and scanning the resampled patch as I was looking for couple of interesting extracts that could be added within the arrangement. Repurposing existing material is one of my favourite techniques to add cohesion.

Utilizing space between the repetition of the motif, embracing longer silences to build tension and opening filter upon each repetition to let the story flow better. As if it’s slowly being swallowed by the cold abyss..

Probably should run it through tape for more grit and dirt!
