Night falls in the mountains // ambient synth session with night critters
This was an unseasonably warm evening in the mountains (it snowed a couple days later) and the night critters were especially active. I'm really glad I was able to capture their sounds while performing. The mosquitoes were brutal so I had to wear gloves and a jacket just to keep 'em off me. You'll see me swatting and scratching and smushing all throughout this session. So it goes in the wilderness. I hope I was able to accurately channel the feeling of being alone out here at night. No AI and no overdubs, ever. You're hearing the actual audio from this performance. Everything you hear me play was improvised on the spot. First thought, best thought. Before I start rolling I decide what the first note will be and that's about it. The textures are created by running my synthesizers through effects pedals that indefinitely loop back the things I play and allow me to control how the loops evolve and decay over time. That's how electronic sound signals can be made to feel organic. That's where the magic happens. All of the gear in my rig is 100% solar-powered: there's a solar battery bank behind me that powers everything and charges all battery-operated devices. SAWTOOTH CURRENT is SG SYCAMORE of SPOKANE, WA who creates solar-powered ambient synthesizer and guitar meditations all across the northwest usa. Turn on, tune in, and drop out for long-form improvisational studies in texture and harmonics, emphasizing process over preparation. Wallpaper music for uninhabited landscapes. Debut album 'STONE CABIN SESSIONS' is available to stream everywhere streams are streamed.
