The good Mr. Ainslie consented to a reconstruction of Filter. Went from being beats-oriented electronica to the humming sounds of electrified swamplife.

Here it is: Filter (a frog in a bog mix)

All sounds come from the original. Done in Audiomulch and Sound Forge, with effects here and there. It's long (13:23) and a big download (19M), so don't kill your dial-up.

As always, all questions, comments, praise and derision welcome.

Cheers,
Steve

Indeed, I listened to his Southport track several times today. Quite liked his 1-minute clips from a while back, too. Don't see him posting new stuff enough though.

Thanks, John. I think it'll hold up to repeat listening.

I've listened to it a lot over the past couple of days, and found I was more comfortable with its finished state the more I heard it.

Glad you liked.

An excellent idea. Meant to post in his thread this morning, but forgot. Will go do now.

some really cool noises in here. it does make me think a lot of frogs

not sure whether thats normal

quite claustrophobic really, with the constant rythmic noises, very cool, and the mix feels so airy when they stop as a contrast.

enjoyed this lots.

cheers,

steve.

Funny you should mention that. Morton Feldman has been on mind lately. Why Patterns? especially, and his use of repeated patterns as a form of musical colour, like in a Rothko painting.

Mr Ian did a most grand remixing job here indeed. Beautiful flow that did conjur up the swamp picture in my mind. A very tempered piece that builds its energy quite subtly.

My hat off to the both of you

Thanks, Mark.

This is actually me remixing Ian's tune. I wasn't sure how he was going to feel about it actually, as I've really taken his track apart, but he seemed pleased with it.

Cheers,
Steve
