Sunrise Loop Jam, Moon, and a Christmas Carol

Hello friends, I haven't been on the forum much for the last couple of years because engagements pulled me elsewhere, but I have still been recording music. Here are three tracks I did recently: 1) https://youtu.be/gCE48QurS38?feature=shared "Sunrise Loop Jam" on an Ibanez Artcore semi-hol...

Transfer Point: Unit Circle (Around My Heart)

Tom and I just finished another recording. It is an electronic love song based on trigonometry, for all of you romantic mathematicians out there. It tells the true story of how I met my wife in a university trigonometry class. https://sanderson.band/2023/02/10/unit-circle/ Recorded using Ardour 7. M...

Unboxing the MOD Dwarf Founders Edition

Back in early 2020 (nearly 3 years ago) I supported the MOD Dwarf Kickstarter, hoping to get my device by Christmas of that year. Well, that didn't happen, as pandemic lockdowns and then supply chain molasses slowed production to the point where the company went bankrupt last year. I lost all hope o...

Re: Sanderson: What Child Is This?

Ouch, looks like I missed this in all the posts! Gorgeous piece as usual, and beautifully played/orchestrated. How are you finding Ardour 7 so far? I'd like to switch too sooner or later, but I always wonder on whether it would be a big change or not from an experience perspective (features-wise it...

Re: Sanderson: What Child Is This?

Best Christmas present ever! I've gotten a lot of mileage out of that microphone. I think it was Christmas 2020, so 2 years.

Mr. Dudely: a proof-of-concept demo for AniMIDI

I'm bragging on my kid here, who is a big fan of Animusic. He wanted to see if something similar could be done using Blender, so he poked around the Blender Stack Exchange until he figured it out. The video is here: https://youtu.be/EkI6sUUZ1eE He also posted the source files on a blog post here: ht...

Sanderson: What Child Is This?

My family records a Christmas carol every year in December, and I spent all day today (12/24/22) recording this. It is an all-Linux production using Ardour 7.1. My son Johann tried his hand at binaural mixing using the IEM plugins. That was our first time using them. I think the mix is pretty good, ...

Re: You Can Make the Pathway Bright

Thanks, everyone! jeanette_c : The recordings were intended for exactly the sort of podcast you describe. It is a series of interviews with artists, musicians, authors, and other media producers who are all members of my church. The purpose is to highlight their work and to talk to them about how th...

Re: Transfer Point: I Saw Your Face

Thanks for the listens and comments, everyone. Yes, the lyrics are semi-autobiographical. I met my wife while attending university in a large city, and there were a few hit-and-miss encounters, including on public transportation, before we finally connected. Those were lonely but hopeful days, and I...

You Can Make the Pathway Bright

Last fall I made some intro/outro music for a podcast, but it didn't end up getting used. (Creative differences with the podcast host.) So I have been sitting on these recordings for about a year, and decided to just post them to the world in hopes that they will be useful to someone. They can be sh...

Re: Synthetic Air on a B-Thing

I quite enjoyed this. I am also an old fan of the brilliant Carlos, having found the old LPs at a thrift store when I was a teenager. I bought them all on CD a few years ago and have really enjoyed them again. I like the patch on your lead synth, with a bit of unstable portamento. It sounds like you...

Transfer Point: I Saw Your Face

Hey friends! I've been away from the forum for a while. It's been a busy year, and kind of a difficult year for me. But I did manage to push another recording across the finish line, so I thought I would post it here for your listening pleasure: https://sanderson.band/2022/10/20/i-saw-your-face/ It ...
