Musical New Year

A new year and a little something different.  I’m learning a few different music softwares in preparation of scoring “the Sum of Parts.”  As I do, I’ll be posting some of my musical experiments and thoughts along the way.

This piece tests out a Balinese Gamelan library for Kontakt, a sampler that I’m using with FL Studio.  The pattern I’m using is classically Gamelan — a lower part that is repeated, at a doubled pace, one octave higher.  I wish I had a library of Indonesian or even Indian percussion, but this piece instead uses a Battery techno drumkit.
