Hydrogen Bomb

I called this Hydrogen Bomb because the audio is generated using the open source drum machine Hydrogen. It is an atonal piece of music the aim of which is to investigate rhythm and its manipulation. The drum pattern is constant throughout the piece. However, the output from Hydrogen was passed through my EM600 delay pedal. Then, the send/return on the mixer was passed through an FM600 filter. The mix then has some post processing from my Alesis QuandraVerb and Behringer Vitrualizer.

So, all the variation is rhythm and tone and the all the non percussion sounds from from filtering and post processing of the simple pattern.

The final result was recorded and passed through a 14 band dynamics processor and compressor with stereo widening in Sonic Field.

Visualisations were done with ProjectM on Ubuntu.
