Re-sampling Atmospherics | Elektron Machinedrum UW

This composition focuses on the use of the real-time sampling features of the Machinedrum UW. My first Machinedrum-only piece -    • Nine Sines and One Noise Please | Elektron...   - still had a handful of spare machine slots to work with, so I added two RAM recording machines and two RAM playback machines. I kept the original sounds and patterns, simply adding sample playback and recording trigs for my RAM machine tracks. I then used song mode and in particular the song mute feature to create a new arrangement of this atmospheric and ambient material that remixes itself in real-time. This was an interesting way to compose as small changes in the arrangement or the sample playback trigs could lead to drastic changes in the final output. Many interesting results can be had by tweaking parameters during playback/recording, or by manually triggering the record machines, but I decided to limit myself here to a hands-off and cerebral approach. The more industrial sections remind me a bit of the sound design from Eraserhead, like listening to the death spasms of decrepit and decaying heavy industry through a half-broken ham radio.
