SURFACE, by Ulrike

SURFACE

by Ulrike

supported by

daffodil SURFACE is a conveyor belt driven trip through your oppressive captor's heart machine. Half open eyelids gleam glipses of specificity as the machine's chafing joints and release valves chug and churn through your eardrums as you wonder whether or not you've been dreaming and if this has been real life at all. Favorite track: CONGEALED.

about

An experiment in building an entire modular synthesis system from scratch - and then recording an album on it.
All sounds on the album are synthesized in Puredata with my personal library of modules; the only exceptions are a few samples used in some granular synthesis sections. The album was mixed and mastered in Audacity.

I hope these sound bring something to your mind when you hear them, and your life is better for it.
-Ulrike
