Hello Everyone :)
It's been a long time since I last shared one of these soundtracks that resulted from a series of sound experiments that I've been rescuing from the trunk over time.
Let me make a brief introduction about my experience and these experimental soundtracks i share with you all:
Despite having grown up near some musicians, and having taken classical guitar lessons since i was very young, i´m not a musician or anything like that, all i share here are raw sound experiments that have as their base and influence a mixture of various musical styles and soundtracks of films and short films that i have been watching throughout my life.
There are many artists who influence these experiments (believe it or not :P) and when i have free time and feel more inspired, i like to produce and mix some random sounds just for fun and to relax, and in the end i turn off the lights and try to listen like it was the first time, to be honest is a bit hard to try to listen like it was the first time once i hear some sounds in loop for a long periods of time. The first experiments came after a stay at one of the most famous electronic music festivals in Portugal, the Boom Festival, and after trying out several digital work stations, it was with Reason that i found the tool i work with until today :) Now that i have made this little introduction let’s go over the details.
Let's get technical
About the software i used to create this soundtrack:
DAW (Digital Audio Workstation): Reason Propellerhead
Digital Audio Workstation "DAW" developed by the Swedish company Propellerhead Software.
This software simulates a rack of signal processors, hardware synthesizers, mixers, etc, thus mimicking the actual operation of electronic music production.
Below, some of the virtual devices used:
