Negligent.
============
Around six months ago, when I first recieved a copy of the ( I hope )
public domain program NoiseTracker v2.0 by Per Tufvesson and Anders
Berkeman I immediately started to spend all of my spare time learning to
use the thing. The first few pieces of music that I came up with, using
this wonderful tool, were too nice to be considered listenable. Also, most
of the sound samples that I had at the time were Monty Python type things.
Now that I have found a few more musical sounds ( drums , synthesisers and
stuff ) I have a much narrower choice of sound ( sound weird ? ), simply
meaning that voices and speech are out, synthesisers are in. Anyway, this
is the first piece of music that I could say I have completed, and here it
is. Please listen to it. Please email me your comments ( criticism either
way would be dearly appreciated ).
My background in music is purely experimental. I have had about six
recorder lessons in my life so can not call myself a musician as such. But
when I was thirteen, I discovered a love for playing acoustic guitar ( the
type with nylon strings) and electronics. So I taught myself guitar,
bought a bunch of electronics, and started playing with tape recorders and
oscillators.
'Negligent' is constructed ( showing my mechanical attitude toward
music ) in the style of Tangerine Dream, but is not in any great way
similar to any piece of theirs, as far as I know. At first I worked on
NoiseTracker. Then when I discovered that if you keep clicking the insert
gadget and the length of the piece goes past 128 blocks, you push the last
blocks off the end. I.e it cannot handle a module of length more than 128
blocks. Not only that, but IntuiTracker will crash ( sometimes ). In
short, neither program will recognise any blocks after number 127, So I
moved it to Med ( Another great piece of software by the Finnish guy whose
name escapes me currently ). This is my explanation for why there are two
versions. The first is the full Med version that I am reasonably happy
with. The second is an edited down version especially for NoiseTracker and
IntuiTracker. You will have noticed the NoiseTracker song dump above,
which I have edited to show the blocks of both versions. Hooray for Cmd
device redirection :-)... The full version goes for around 10:40 minutes.
Any further queries about this please contact me at burton@latcs1.oz.au or
