[LAD] The Bay of Atlantis

[Louigi Verona]

Announcing a new release of project "droning", tune 281 "The Bay of
Atlantis".

*Stream it here:* https://louigi.bandcamp.com/album/281-the-bay-of-atlantis

*Word from the author:*

Extensive work went into this creation.

I wanted the tune to create a feeling that this is one solid composition,
not a soundtrack with distinct segments, but something rather like an ocean
which is in one instance is calm and in the other - furious. But still just
one single ocean.

To all of you travelers out there, and to those of us who find visiting
nonexistent places important.


*Technical specs:* Qtractor, Rakarrack, Carla, Kluppe, seq24 and a number
of LV2 plugins. Zyn is used, although a number of sounds came from other
sources.

Hey hey Louigi,
I enjoyed this one very much. I listened to it while enjoy8ing a good
read and it really swetp me away into the zone. When it had ended, I
really missed it and had to start it again. Your different approach to
composition played out very well. I should revisit this piece at night,
it must be - literally - fantastic.

Best wishes,

Jeanette

Love it. Especially love the (possibly accidental) sonic references to
Rubicon (Tangerine Dream) e.g. at about the 26 minute mark. What is that?

Hey everyone!

Thank you for the kind words, I am very happy you are enjoying the
experience.

Any and all sonic references to Tangerine Dream are always accidental, as
to this day I never listened to Tangerine Dream, although have skimmed
through several tunes after being told that some of my tunes that feature
arpeggiation seem to remind people of Tangerine Dream. Right now quickly
clicked through Rubicon on YouTube. Arpeggiation part in the end is not
bad, although a little outdated, I guess.

I think the reason why some of my arpeggiating tunes remind people of
Tangerine Dream is that setting up an arpeggiating bassline as a backbone
of a tune and then putting things on top is an extremely simple idea that
many musicians come up with. As I do have a minialistic approach in my
music, it is possible that it sounds similar to what they did back in the
day. Either way, Tangerine Dream has never been part of my musical diet,
but I don't mind people hearing these unintentional references, this is
always very interesting.

As to the part at 26 minute, I think this is a pad loop that I played
through Kluppe sent through a chain of CamelSpace ran though Festige and
then through Rakarrack, powered by an almost 100% wet signal Long Reverb of
the reverb module. The "watery" feeling is created by CamelSpace, which
provides a filter and a sequencer which is capable of gating and changing
the cutoff frequency value. An incredible VST plugin, although I actually
rarely use it for ambient.

So, a mix of Linux and VST technology here. But as far as I remember, this
was probably the only non-Linux piece of tech I've used here.

I wasn't referring to the arpeggiation (really, in TD's case, it's actually
a 16 or 32 step analog sequencer) but the "chirping" sound right around
25:53 and becomes more obvious at 26:16 . You also used it around 14:08.
"filter and a sequencer" sounds like a likely explanation.

Anyway,

Oh yeah, I understood, I meant exactly the chirping sound at 26.00. I even
opened the project in the sequencer and also ran Kluppe and Camel Space to
reproduce the sound and make sure I am giving you accurate information.

Thanks. For comparison:

and listen
right around the 5:24 mark

It may sound utterly different to you, but this is what I reminded of by
those precise moments in your piece (which has much more going for it than
a nostalgia-reminiscence!)

No, no, I completely see the similarity! And the dynamics of the tune at
that moment are very similar too!
