Hi all,
this one is meant to evoke a feeling of place and mood, without giving any direction or imagery. While there are no real sounds (other than the rain) I've tried to hint at things, like distant conversations, phones ringing, or traffic.
Please leave a comment to tell me if you got anything from it.
this might not be particularly original but I wanted to do my own take on it. There are a bunch of videos out there that do the whole blade runner or cyberpunk ambient thing but a lot of them take the original sound track and stretch them out, maybe adding some rain. This isn't a bad thing and I love quite a few of them but I wanted to create my own.
The main reason for me doing this was to do one with more melodic content, that still remains ambient, with nothing to hum a long with. I wanted it to feel musical but let your focus wander, with the noise of the rain allowing you to sleep, or to focus on the task at hand. There are a bunch of studies that show how this type of broad frequency range noise can help the mind...
Anyway, this was all created on the wonderful Moog One with a handful of different rain recordings. The rain tracks evolve over time, using shaperbox to help add some additional motion, so the weather moves, with some animation to the cutoff to stop it feeling too static (and to mask the looping).
There are 14 tracks of Moog One in this piece. No loops, no sequences or arps. All played on the fly, using patches I created for this piece.
I have a few Moog One patches I'll be sharing soon too, so please subscribe to get notified of when I post them (probably early next week).
The video was made using Blackmagic Fusion.
Ok, I hope you enjoy.
Thanks
Rob
