about

Pyrmont - another moniker of Tunist Dasa for mostly Dub-influenced, reverberating ambient atmospheres.

I'm always excited to process field recordings and think of unusual ways to do it as I'm recording. Always a different bandwith and dynamics, which seems to be unpretending, but interesting for feeding the 4MS SMR with it. This one is about looping five minutes from a bridge over the highway near my flat. Perfect that the 4MS Spectral Multiband Resonator processing the incoming audio signal with 96kHz and 24bit, as it was recording. The stereo output goes straight into my Octatrack Mk2 [Compressor-EQ-Phaser-Spatializer(to reduce the width a bit)]. The Make Noise Maths was fed by the Korg SQ-1 for Envelopes and the Intellijel Morgasmatron was in LFO-Mode (thanks to Maths +/-10V&5V offset range) to keep the level of the 4MS frequency-bands in motion.

The second part is my Arturia Microfreak Synthesizer whose "digital" sound is going through the microcell granular processor in Superparasite Clouds-Mode for reverb with a grain playing some octaves deeper in the 8-bit µ-law, so it sounds more like a cassette. That one also is processed by the octatrack (compressor-chorus-phaser-dark reverb) to made it more organic. The neighbor tracks are a chain-dream.

First recorded in ableton through my soundcard. EQ's and compressors because the 4MS SMR creates sometimes peaks-depending on the dynamic of the field recording and added a tiny bit of reverb overall on a send-effect, because I wanted to swim in those frequencies.
Afterwards recorded on Chrome Extra II to get the warmth saturation of the cassette. The version on youtube is w/out compression, this one is mastered and recorded from cassette.

Free download in loseless quality.

Hope you enjoy listening
