about

'River Ores' reaches its tenth iteration - the first session header in the Vibratelepathos series to graduate to double-digits - with a slow sweeping Karplus-Strong study in the major pentatonic scale, originally recorded in January of 2022.

In many ways, Karplus-Strong synthesis has not only remained a dominant voice within my growing modular system's development, but it has informed the paths forward for many other recordings in this series. The simple notion of a resonant surface, built synthetically out of noise generators, feedback trails, phasing changes and filters, is as much a fundamental representation of synthesizers in general as it is an esoteric path to explore with machine programming and generative composition. Karplus-Strong continues to yield new and vibrant frontiers from a handful of tools, a continual proof of concept that music and math are intrinsically connected at levels both musicians and engineers are still discovering.

At the present moment, there are no less than fifteen different Karplus-Strong (or adjacent) machines in my modular system. They all possess unique qualities and behaviors, and work well together as well as apart. 'River Ores X' stands as a monument to their versatility and expressiveness, a gorgeous plume of blue-orange smoke rising from the horizon line to the clouds, casting wavering shadows across the river and valley below.

Tigress effortlessly gliding between the stoned, dusty grooves with that instantly identifiable "just behind the beat" bass line - one of my all time favourites amongst many from Brian's myriad milieu of mazey marvels. da5idh
