You will find 2:23 hours of ambient & drone ambient based on the idea of lakes, seas and oceans on https://krakenkraft.bandcamp.com/album/black-seas-of-infinity Slowly and timid developing textures, morphing in harmonic and disharmonic structures, created with different electronic and physical instruments and field recordings.

My self-built metal noisebox, the Krakenphone, sent via 4I/O and 2Signalamp into the AE modular. The audio signal went on different routes thru the modules to the mixer. Different sound have been recorded in separate takes with different settings and put together with Reaper to build this beethovenish dramaturgy … Because no external, additional FX has been added, you mainly hear the LoFi-Delay an...

A cheap battery-driven theremin I once bought on ebay, send via 4I/O into the AE modular. The Signal went thru Wasp filter and Wavefolder, LoFi-Delay and MultiFX Shimmer, all of them controlled by different LFOs. So you mainly hear the FX section of the AE modular. The result was slightly paulstretched (for a pad feeling) and mixed with the original with some additional VST FX, mostly Valhalla Fre...

My Tangible Waves AE modular played live with some crazy patch. Additional LFOing via 4I/O from two moog mothers (it works). Maybe a little atonal, but after repeated listening it becomes somehow magical, to me, at least. Mostly internal effects, my beloved Lofi-Delay and the interesting "Glitch Delay" from the MultiFX module (in row). Some additional compression, EQing, reverb blending slowly in...

Multitrack recording of 3 Tracks Tangible Waves AE modular (mostly S&H gimmicks) and 1 Track Soma Lyra 8. Some VST FX (EQ, Protoverb).

4 Layers of Tangible Waves AE Modular recordings, no FX or processing but those from the modules itself. No claim to be a musical masterpiece … but not so bad either!

Plain AEmodular with (mainly) the modules SEQ16 + Wasp Filter + Nye Filter + Wavefolder + MultiFX and the the lovely LoFi Delay (coming in around 3:00). The nice drone pads are simply artefacts from the resonating MultiFX module. As recorded, no external fx or processing. For people interested in this nifty little machine …

Granular ambient version of Eric Saties Gymnopédie No.1. There is an extended version on the album "The Beyond" https://krakenkraft.bandcamp.com/album/the-beyond Image based on https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Datei:Erik_Satie_-_BNF1.jpeg -- Production note for disquiet members: I started with the first few bars from Gymnopédie No.1, from this public domain recording: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Da...

The M21 open cluster of stars sounds relatively young and tightly packed.

Production note: I remember playing Zork I on some PC with two Floppy Disk Drives … the game was mainly WALKing around and LOOKing for the great adventure. So I started with the step samples, added a walking bass and filled the search with some Great Underground Empire pads. So this is not mainly a score for or from the game, it's more a score from the mind of the young gamer, who did at that time...

5 layers of AE_modular, just exploring some sounds. AE_mod only, plus some VST FX.

Entry for disquiet0358. Approach note: I started with a sequence in 7/4 beat (because it seemed so odd), went on with a blues scale on a CFG blues scheme and followed my instincts, until I lost interest at the end. I hated it for a while, now I like it very much. More on this 358th weekly Disquiet Junto project — Rhythm + Blue(s) / The Assignment: An exercise in genre — at: https://disquiet.com/03...

I admit: I was lazy and just threw together some half-finished pieces with different levels of spookyness, which may be heard in a dead café which serves absynth. -- More on this 356th weekly Disquiet Junto project (Ground Swell / The Assignment: Derive something spooky from a specific place) at: https://disquiet.com/0356/ Major thanks to Chris McAvoy for having proposed this project.

"There came to that room wild streams of violet midnight glittering with dust of gold; vortices of dust and fire, swirling out of the ultimate spaces and heavy with perfumes from beyond the worlds. " -- H.P.Lovecraft https://krakenkraft.bandcamp.com/album/azatoth

Soundcheck with my newly built DIY Krakenphone v1: Metal box with contact microphone inside and different things attached to it outside. Three live tracks in Reaper recorded and mixed, FX via VSTs.
