micronaut - capacitor Now Available...

[Embedded media, no longer available.]

Another heaping slab of analog squishies served up, in the form of Capacitor. This is a continuation of the theme I started with Resistor, and will finish with Transformer (coming in Q1 2011.) It is, by and large, a plug-in free zone. Almost every sound is generated from either an analog synth, drum machine, or guitar (mic’d; I don’t condone the use of amp sims except in writing) and almost all the effects are hardware.

The interesting track to converse about here will be CMU which is, unsurprisingly, 100% created and sequenced with the Apple //e and CMU-800R. It was an extremely tricky track to make, as I had to do a ton of individual track recordings, and sequencing on the CMU-800R software is roughly akin to, as I explained to someone the other day, driving a car via Morse code. So it’s a fairly satisfying track for me.

Anyhow, there you go. Pay What You Want, At Least A Buck at Bandcamp. I’ll put the Tunecore submission up this weekend, for people that prefer other avenues of distribution, but obviously Bandcamp is my preferred outlet.
