Gonna be following #Novembeat, but after #Looptober I need a break from making a whole, complete chunk of music every day. Seems like a good challenge for anyone who might've wanted to do #Looptober but missed out this year, though! (Or anyone for whom a single month of making a new piece of music every day was simply not enough!)

Edit: I've just been informed that #Noisevember is also a thing.

Edit 2: And #Dronecember.

Someone said #dronecember ?

#noise

As i've used the first thing that comes to mind for all these drones, i did the same with the final #dronecember even though it was a bit corny. So, i hummed Auld Lang Syne through some effects with my #buchla 200e system as accompaniment.

The full playlist of all 31 drones are up on SoundCloud. Almost 5 hours of slow music.

Happy New Year!

This last #dronecember is a trio of Cello, Organ and sine waves. It has a well tempered fifth as its only interval, if we don't count octaves. The dynamics take care of most of the sense of progression. The music is very reduced. This is about half an hour's worth of music, but like most of the stuff I do, I think it would benefit from running it for as long as you feel like. Let me know if you'd like my help getting #SuperCollider sat up. I do that a lot, so it's fine.

Okay, so...

I'm about to sit down and do my last little .scd file for #dronecember . I did #noisevember right before, so that switch was wild. I used to do a lot more noisier stuff back in the day. It was great sort of having an excuse to do that kind of aesthetic but It got hard to stay within that at about 2/3rds of that month. It was a real sense of relief getting to do Drone after that. Now it's almost time to wrap things up for this month and I've loved it. I learned a lot from it.
