about

Originally recorded on the evening of April 24th, 2021, RIVER ORES V continues the cosmically deep exploration of Karplus-Strong synthesizer voices via the R-EW Audioholistics modular system. Using a pink noise generator that is attenuated and sent through Mutable Instruments Rings, where it triggers a constant stream of tone, a sonic foundation is set into place for another Karplus engine - 2HP's Pluck - to perform more melodically upon it. Pluck is multed and sent into two different low-pass filters (2HP and Disting Mk4) where it becomes a stereo signal after different (but similar) modulation envelopes are applied to each filter. From here, Pluck's stereo image is routed into Mutable Instruments Clouds, a granular processor that probabilistically sweeps an ever-changing sampling buffer, using what it finds to play filtered and reverberated segments of Pluck's melodies. The sequencing profile of Pluck was not written down at the time, but it was likely something from within Ornament and Crime, as I was heavily favoring Euclidean sequencing for many of my sessions that season.

Altogether, RIVER ORES V represents another ocean of possibility, singularly derived from the same instruments and tools that created the prior four iterations. To invoke The Bard - if music is the food of love, then play on. The sensation of the endless has never been more appealing, given all the suffering and pain so omnipresent in the world today, and when it becomes not just possible, but reasonable, to fashion entire eternities out of the pillars of designed pleasure, I begin to feel as if I might just trade this world in for another, were I given that choice. Until such a moment of decision may arrive, I have recorded hours upon hours - lifetimes, even - of escapist fantasy to lose yourself within. Here, dear listener, are two more hours, themselves drops in a pond that seems to grow bigger with every new ripple.

Are we building the universe, or merely discovering it? Or is it neither of these things - but perhaps an answer to our answerless questions?
