about

synthetic passion no. 1



track: 48

recorded: 20170108

duration: 1:17

type: guitar synthesizer - live improvisation


"synthetic passion no. 1 and no. 2" were both recorded live to digital on january 8th, 2017 - as part of an ongoing test of new guitar systems. this was originally a test of the guitar synth as I've not been using it of late,

but it immediately turned into a long, long session - most of which, you will find (eventually) on the "music for pcs: komplete samples" album - because I overdubbed live guitar synth solos, on top of a very rough mix of a song I was working on at the time called "under electron microscope". once I had done 15 live takes on top of the komplete track (the best eight of which will appear on the komplete eternal album), I then went and played a handful of solo pieces, using the guitar synth, and these are two of those pieces.

I've returned to one of my favourite GR-55 sounds, "rich strings" which while it does not sound like a mellotron, it's still very, very satisfying to play from the guitar fretboard - a lovely sound.

this piece sets up the theme, and then the longer "synthetic passion no. 2" gives it a final form.
