This is my first experience with music and visuals.
I produced the music, the video, and some of the sculptures and drawings.
All the other images are Dadaist art and photos.


(NOTE:) For a better viewing experience, change the video settings to *48P and wait 5 minutes for the video to upload completely. Then click play.

I hope you enjoy it.

The sounds in the tracks are progressive. This is live music, not created on a computer, and will take time to construct all the tracks.

In this track, you can listen to what is called Improvisation (as all the tracks I do), but in this case, the start sounds go off-beat.
Don't be scared, it's not like that for long and again, it has a nice mental effect ;)

On this track, I added some bass again.
This is (possibly) one of the most expressive tracks from this lot of tracks I did on this date, but your comment will say if it's true or not.

The background for this track is very tricky as it sounds off tempo but is precisely at the exact (bpm) and makes a vibraphone sound very weird ;)

Second track. 
This track starts like the first one (with the kaossilator sounds first and then the drums) the sounds are progressive and they take you slowly into a ritual meditation.

On this track, I use a bass background, which contradicts what I said earlier about avoiding bass in this track.

This is electronic music for your brain, not for the dance floor ;)
Again, the track was recorded at once (live), no tricks or masterings or studio works.

Write this to be better explained and easy to read... The sounds in the tracks are progressive. This is live music and is not created on a computer; it will take time to construct all the tracks.

 This is the first track with both machines, WAVDJ and KAOSSILATOR.
At this point, I was doing an experiment with the sounds at the start.
If you can be aware, the sounds will be out of tempo... but not!
This creates an extraordinary effect on the music, as after the beat starts, you will feel like the sounds are out of tempo. However, after a few seconds, you will notice that the sounds are connecting fine.
This is a mind game in the music that I would like to play more with ;)

On the other hand, I can change this by starting the tracks with the drums and then stopping the drums after a few seconds, adding some sounds.
After leaving the sounds play for some time, if I switch the drums again, they will start on tempo.
Mental music tricks.

The sounds in the tracks are progressive. This is live music, not created on a computer, and will take time to construct all the tracks.

Here is the first experiment with the machine, both with and without the kaossilator.
A very long and experimental sound.
I cannot call this the best of all the tracks, as it incorporates elements from every track background I used to construct the others. However, I have to post this as it is the first track I made with the machine.
No KAOSSILATOR on this track, it's just the Machine sounds.

I will call this one:
Hypnotic Ambient - The Start

You will notice some hummm in the background.

The sounds on this track are only from the 
WAVDJ - VM - 108 and I try to make the most possible of this.

Tracks

 Tracks (part 1)

Finally!
Track.... it's the sound of something you have broken ;) (joke)

I will start to post the tracks I did, and I will appreciate your comments, whatever your comment is.

The sounds in the tracks are progressive. This is live music, not created on a computer; it will take time to construct all the tracks.

This is not professional material, and I am not looking to make professional sounds with these machines; I just want to make something different.
That's my DADA PROJECT ;)

I will start posting the tracks by date, which means you will begin listening from the worst (experimental) to the best. It is an evolution and I would like to post the tracks as they come.

No tricks. This is pure life. They will be posted as they are recorded.

To start, I would like to get a name for all the tracks as one, so I will call these first tracks:
The Start (No kaossilator)
Altered states, opus 1
Altered states, opus 2
Altered States Opus 3
Altered States Opus 4
Altered States Opus 5
and so on ...

I will post all the tracks I have recorded and all the stages I passed to reach the last (in perfection) of tracks, but I will take you from start to finish.
(This will be complicated :)

Are you ready?
Okay, the sound is experimental and progressive, as all the tracks are made in real-time and with only two machines. No mastering, no overdubs, no tricks, it is as it is.
Here are the machines used to produce these tracks:
WAVDJ - VM -108
+
KAOSSILATOR
+
My Imagination

I will explain everything track by track, page by page, and sound by sound.
I hope you enjoy it and leave your comments.
Thanks

A hole in the lang

Lost time in bed

Just a quick update...
(If nothing else, it will stay as memory!)

I didn't give up on the idea and I am still working hard, but unfortunately, I have to take a break in this as I have a "Lung collapse" and I have been in the hospital for a couple of months and I am recovering from this ... shit, at the moment!

At the same time, I am really busy with my psy trance record label and editing, as well as publishing new releases from other artists.

But I never stop :) Wile I was in the Hospital, I have been working on my laptop and I did construct some very "dada" tracks "experimental music" I still work on this but I have to admit... I am not excited.
If you've been following this blog from the start, you know by now that music production programs like Ableton don't excite me because they're too technical and detract from my ability to create music.

But again... In the hospital with nothing to do, I had to entertain myself, so I created some strange tracks in Ableton, which I would probably publish through a new record label I plan to establish, focusing on experimental music only.

At the same time, I hope that after I have finished all the publishing of these new releases from my psy trance label, I will be able to dedicate my time only to this project and come up with the so-expected tracks (live and studio)

Till then... speak later ;)
