Vol. 1

by Shit Creek

supported by

Mucho Maas! Lovely outerworld tape-fuzz-folk-not-folk. As tranquil as a walk through a quiet wood and, at times, equally as lonely. Favorite track: leadlight i.

about

if Yorkshire folk circa. 1300 had had access to violins, tape loops, and the collected writings of lauri honko

SO-CALLED TEXTURE
by Vibracathedral Orchestra

supported by 4 fans who also own “Vol. 1”

Mohammad disliked stringed instruments, preferring the 'purer' sounds of flute and drum. He didn't explain, but a possible reason is that strings are richer in harmonics and can be used to create chords or partial chords. These create beats and resonances from which melodies can be picked out, giving the illusion of a phantom musician creating independently of the human operator. VCO exploit this property of polyphony, giving the phantom centre stage and a job playing saxophone. martin corey
