Extemperate by Matt Robertson
This is the most mellow album I have put out for a few years now. I guess I have just found myself listening to a lot of ambient in the last year or so, and it's filtered into my own productions. Most of these pieces started out as sketches made with a pretty basic modular synth, using just one voice but controlling 4 oscillators with different control voltages. It's a very limiting way of composing, but sometimes leads to interesting things. Some, like Part 9 and Part 10, I left pretty much as they were with the modular, but others I extrapolated out the ideas onto other instruments and waited to see where they took me. Please let me know what you think!
