Filterer - audio demo
glidepro:
Here we have a quick audio demo of Filterer.
Below you’ll be able to hear the original track (written by me years ago) and after that, a section that I recorded through Filterer. Note that as the impedance between the output of the device playing the track, and the input of the iPhone wasn’t matched, the tone is slightly altered…
BEFORE
AFTER - Filterer’d :P
See what...

misscsilla:
I want to function without money. I am want to be self-sufficient or live in a small community that is. I want idealism and a Utopian escape. I’d like morality and comfort and choice and intelligence.
Anyone up for a creative collective, urban farm & commune in old abandoned Detroit?

notationnotes kindly answered my question regarding that diagram of human hearing ranges with:

Bass-line Stroll
technofederalist:
Walk with the bass line up and down the scales, watching the octaves trade spaces with highs, lows, and everywhere in-between. Feel the rhythm reverberate in-between and amongst that experience coaxing you to tap your foot and dip your head. Relax the shoulders. Mental choreography organizes the beat to the mood of self-expression lighting the way to floors awaiting...

WatchSo, yeah, the always awesome The Black Dog uploaded their Subject To Delays EP (good name, that) to SoundCloud yesterday.
Track 3, made in conjunction with Anthony Child (I’m guessing that is the Anthony Child a.k.a Surgeon!), is titled Sleep Deprivation! And it does convey that strange droney, tense and exhaustive conflict one feels when suffering from the effects of prolonged insomnia....

Something about moi....
electronicmuze:
I’m meticulously obsessive about any and everything that has to do with music in any shape or form whether it be something as simple as me organizing my library to something as complicated as making a track.
