Using the sun's energy to make music about the sun's energy // ambient synth session in the woods
This session is the purest form of the vision I had for this project at the outset: making fully improvised ambient synthesizer music outside in the wilderness using solar power. Channeling the energy of the place in which I find myself to create musical vibrations that capture the feeling of occupying this particular moment in time and space. Getting lost in the present moment through playful exploration of the musical tools I've placed in front of myself. I hope you enjoy it. Recorded and filmed somewhere in Umatilla National Forest, Oregon. No AI and no overdubs, ever. You're hearing the actual audio from this performance. All of the gear in my rig is 100% solar-powered. 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. 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.
