Niobrara (Interstellar Medium Remix)

Published: April 19, 2005, 5:29 a.m.

My recent mastering experiments have been all about reproducing \u2026 well, not the literal sound, but the musical spirit of real-life piano \u2014 but of course there\u2019s another side to this software I\u2019m using, and it seemed a shame not to play with it! So I went and had some fun with Niobrara. (Some fragments of another improv are also tucked away in there; a free CD to the first person to correctly identify which one.) I hope you enjoy this little musical excursion!

All these sounds are acoustic piano processed in various ways. The software you\u2019re hearing: Logic Express, Eqium, SupaPhaser, Bouncy, Scrubby, SoundHack, and Stereo Image Munger.

My mom heard a bit of this stuff when I started fooling with it in Colorado, and called it \u201cSybil Music\u201d after the wonderful watercolors of Sibyl Stork. Alas, the photos on her web site don\u2019t do the paintings justice!
