After 3 months of collaboration [emptynoises] and abre ojos have just finished an album full of modular synth goodness. On it you will find four tracks each of which followed this process:
seed -> swap -> process -> swap -> process
where each of us would start with 6-7mins of sound, swap it with the other and either process it or create a response using everything from our modular systems to software including ableton live.
All tracks are 192 MP3 files.
Download the full zipped album including cover art here: en_vs_ao.zip 43.3mb
Or individual tracks here:
1. into the sky 11.1mb
2. the reference is to Coma 9.7mb
3. rotating bodies are magnetic 10.9mb
4. utilised for rationalised ends 9.2mb
abre ojos live from abre ojos on Vimeo.
Abre Ojos playing the track “Destre Chi Kegro” live, recorded at the DE:CONstruction night at Forepaw gallery 5th September 2008 Melbourne Australia.
Shot by the legendary Screwtape (mp3.com.au/Screwtape) and recorded by a Edirol R09 from the mixer. Some of the audio was clipped and needed plenty of TLC to coax it back, but there are still a few glitches.
Screwtape was also cool enough to do a review: mp3.com.au/Screwtape/Blog
check out his tunes while yr there too!
