Our trio proudly presents... Every band needs a 2020 lockdown EP! 'brainhack musicbox' usually means #modularsynth - but timespace got warped so much this year - and this time our main musicbox was an old Sony TC-800B #tapemachine The main drone source was a #shrutibox played by @didge_and_digital - all the tracks he sent in April were recorded to the crappy old tape, slowed down by 2, 4 and 8 - and recorded back into PC through Electro-Harmonix Graphic fuzz. As a result we got a shruti orchestra with a massive sound. The same processing was applied to the sax tracks by @brovipapy Even more - we make him play with himself in trio when the same notes played at different speeds simultaneously. Whatβs unusual for this release is the minimum of synths: just a touch of #sidraxorgan at the beginning and a bits of #korgms20mini at some points. βKhrooshchβ is a transliterated Ukrainian name of some beetles from the Scarabaeidae family known for their specific low buzz sounds. Amphimallon larva is depicted on cover art by @lena_vnetlena The album is available for all platforms - link in bio #synthesizer #sax #tapemusic #experimentalmusic #ambient #freejazz #noisemusic #experimentalambient #lockdownrelease #lockdownep #newreleases (at Kyiv, Ukraine) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGnFL9pHwUB/?igshid=rxb86ekgaoiz
