Cumulus 2 - The Bridge (Glitzerstrahl)

Published on Apr 25, 2013 GlitzerstrahlMusic·6 videos

"Part two in the tentatively named Cumulus series. Based entirely on the modular synth, with the exception of the kick drum. This track continues to explore the theme of sound textures started with the Cumulus 1, but this time with a higher tempo.

The track was recorded in multiple layers with the Morphing Terrarium as the primary sound source, except for some guest play from time to time by the Bubblesound VCOs. Only reverb was added as an effect while mixing the layers. There are no other computer generated effects.

Of course, all layers where recorded as continues 'live' recordings, each track 'over dubbing' the previous ones. The video was recorded in separate takes for each layer, and since all I have is a web camera and iMovie the results are... not exactly stellar. But at least it gives you some pretty light to look at as an excuse to listen to the track! ;-P Not all of the layers where filmed so if you are trying to match up knob-wiggling with actual sound it wont exactly match all the time :).

Modules are from Doepfer, XAOC Devices, Synthesis Technology, Bubblesound, TipTop Audio, Pittsburgh Modular and 4ms."


Cumulus 1 - The Engine Room [Complete] (Glitzerstrahl)

Published on Feb 18, 2013

"This is the full version of the track Cumulus 1 - The Engine Room. This track was made entirely with my modular synth, using modules from Doepfer, XAOC Devices, Bubblesound, TipTop Audio, Pittsburgh Modular and 4ms.

The main objective of this track was to explore the various sounds and workflows that my modular offers. The sequencing and clock for all layers comes from a XAOC Moskwa, and some of the more rhythmic patterns were made using the 4ms Pingable Envelope Generator. There is no external clock or MIDI involved.

I'm sorry that the video is not 100% in sync all the time, each layer was recorded separately and I do not have a multitrack video editing software at hand so matching them up was a little tricky.

Anyways, hope you like it."
