Hi Jeanette,
Very nice EP, well crafted musically and in terms of sound and mix.
My favourite song is 'Cool, blessed hand': liked its atmosphere, lovely
synth and sample sounds, the pleasant harmonic ambiguity in some parts,
not to mention an overall cultural/artistic 'European' style I hear in it :)
Thanks,
Lorenzo.

Hey hey,
in tribute and honour to DJ Annie Mac I publish my new EP, with
completely fresh material: Congroovent

Happy birthday Annie, though for her it won't be for another hour yet.
This EP spans electronic genres from synthwave to club to drum and bass,
with 80s synthpop, baroque music and modern harmonies in its gene pool.
From the Linux side it involved Midish for sequencing and arranging,
Nama for recording/rendering to disk, processing, mixing and mastering,
LinuxSampler for opena dn commercial samples, including some self
sampled and prepared kits, Yoshimi - a happy birthday due shortly! - for
some wonderfully unique synth sounds and even Csound for the odd effect
and creating/synthesizing an IR for "Strain of thought", listen out for
the snare!
Otherwise, yes it is heavily reliant on hardware, which is both for
practical reasons and a certain cult-motif. :) The practical reason
being, from a sound designer's point of view, the immediacy of
programming, the accessibility for a blind person, including the full
depth of the instruments and, of course, just having them. :)
I hope you enjoy it, I'd love to hear your feedback - good and bad - and
you are very welcome to share it. :)
Best wishes,
Jeanette
