Day 297 - Neolithic Ceremonial Headdress
Exciting times! I've released my modular album under the moniker Neolithic Ceremonial Headdress. If you like dark, meandering ambient music, you can check it out on Spotify, Apple Music, or CDBaby, and coming soon to iTunes, Tidal, and a few other miscellaneous streaming services, and perhaps a Bandcamp page as time allows.
A pretty stunning album cover, am I right?
As you might imagine, I am immensely proud of this work. It was recorded between June and November of this year (outdoors, on my back patio no less) using a small Eurorack rig. Here is the setup I used for most of the work:
As you can see, this is a fairly modest setup, comprising roughly half of my modules. On a few tracks I brought in an off-rack Circadian Rhythms and one or two other modules, but the configuration above truly is the heart of the album, and I think being fairly consistent with the setup has lent a certain continuity across all tracks.; despite each having a distinct sound and construction, they are unmistakably siblings of each other. It's heavy on DSP, light on VCAs and modulation, but it all turned out pretty great.
If you have any questions about this rack or production of this album, I'd be happy to answer them.
