Recording Notes

Lamplit - Soft guitar cloud creator

Inspired by the etheric 6 string tones of artists such as Skúli Sverrisson and Leo Abrahams. Mini humbuckers through Univox EC 80A tape echo and modular processing. Short and long variants. [les paul > univox ec 80a > erbeverb]

Hala - Auric tape pad

A take on the perfect layering pad. Juno 106 sampled through a tube preamp to slightly damaged cassette tape. Warm, fuzzy, and wide. [juno 106 > 610 tube preamp > portastudio 424

]

Ferro - Warm electro-mechanical piano

A versatile, mellow electric piano balancing the softer dynamics of a slightly wonky Rhodes MK2 with the acoustic resonance of an upright piano and mechanical hammer sounds. [rhodes mk2 > 610 tube preamp
.
line audio cm4s for mechanical sounds]

Vaila - Fragile voice constellations


Vocalist and composer 王睿琪 Ruiqi Wang’s voice recorded to cassette tape loops. For creating sinuous waves of interwoven vocal threads. [ruiqi wang > sm7B > fostex x28]

Hecate - Fractured bandoneon drones


An old wheezing bandoneon with polyphonic wavefolding. An offering to the luminary Pauline Oliveros. [bandoneon > stereo line audio cm4 > wavefolder]
