well ... since you asked,

i have got a sine wave coming out of graintable synth with a monophonic arpeggiator wobbling it on a random setting up and down 4 octaves with the shuffle setting on and the gate length low creating a funky shuffling bass sound,
its been modulated at 1/16th with another shifty thing going on,
soft on the attack, not too long on the release
laid over over a funky shuffling beat at about 120 and the whole thing sounds fucking cool

whoah, i just slapped it through a nice spacey reverb, oooooooooooooo

thats what i'm listening to

i really love natural sounds in music but there are few things as fun as tweaking with weird modulating sounds
the question is why, who, why, what, why, when, why and why again?

"O Oysters," said the Carpenter,
"You've had a pleasant run!
Shall we be trotting home again?'
But answer came there none--
And this was scarcely odd, because
They'd eaten every one.

ian, i heard this first one when all other dance music sounded like themes to kids shows, it blew my mind


the question is why, who, why, what, why, when, why and why again?
