Drift 03/27/2010
March 28, 2010A simple phasing piece consisting of a 12 beat phrase that repeats in two channels. The phrase in the right channel is a quarter of a beat longer than the phrase in the left channel, so they gradually drift out of sync, then come back into sync after 48 repeats. The result is a series of unpredictable rhythmic and melodic variations.
Light timing and velocity randomization was applied to the final sequence to keep the piece from feeling stiff. Both channels are played through a percussive synth patch designed in Native Instruments Massive, with EQ and reverb from Logic Pro.
