Drone-n-Whistle: "Suspension of Disbelief" w/ Tardigrain, Cascade, Crystals, MF-101S

in Creations & Collaborations

The drone was produced from a single F#7sus chord, plucked and strummed on baritone guitalele by Jonathan Dale, processed in the Tardigrain iPad granular synth. I'm "playing" the drone live in the video.

Post-processing in Cubasis 3 with effects including Cascade, Crystals, Korvpressor, MF-101S Filter, and Pro-C.

    Really deep meditation with this one. Thanks for opening up this space. I loved the pitch interplay between the whistle and the drone… they would align and drift apart a few times. That’s one of the joys of using acoustic instruments played by a human with good ears. You can control minute variations in pitch as the moment requires.

    Thanks. I was trying to do root/fourth/fifth combinations on the Tardigrain keyboard to try to simulate some chord changes but keeping in the suspended realm. I hit a few bum notes on the whistle. 🙃

    Thanks also @HotStrange @jo92346 @id_23

    I often feel that way too when I listen back but every listener brings their own perspective to a performance and many don’t believe notes are wrong… they often appreciate the unexpected so I try and just let the performance find it’s own audience.
    Of course, with MIDI recordings I can edit and I guess now with auto-tune products you could too. But I hope you don’t.

    I like the ethnic flute flourishes and pitch bends that you bring to your playing in a non-western tradition as exhibited in the
    music of various asian cultures.

    Very relaxing, it’s great to see real instruments and electronic played together. Thanks for posting 👍

    Wow. This is my favorite piece of yours. I could have listened for another fifteen minutes.

    Thanks @GeoTony and @Wrlds2ndBstGeoshredr . Hmm, maybe I'll have to plan an "extended dance mix" 🙃
