Some time ago I added Gardens Lit by Starlight to my Soundcloud page. Now I have decided to share it further on occasion of the Soniccouture User Tracks Competition.
Here it is.
http://soundcloud.com/terjedb/gardens-lit-by-starlightA note on this work in progress: Apart from some audio engineering/ balance and dynamics, I consider it finished, it´s included in the project Cordial/Cranial which in the future will become an album of ambient/soundscape instrumental tracks. I was inspired
to shift from traditional sequencers, synths and programmed drum machines towards solo
instrumentation on the Soniccouture Morpheus . Morpheus is a Virtual instrument for the
Sampler environment software Kontakt 5 by Native Instruments. It is based on the Morpheus by Freenotes, which is a modern xylophone. For Xylophone music I have very little reference by ear, so I extemporated a whole array of different shifts and movements until I found something that fit with the rest of the track. I am actually quite content with the result, but will give the adaptability and high quality of the instrument some of the credit.
