about

This tape piece was realized in 1994 at San Jose State University, composed entirely on MIDI instruments, utilizing FM, analog and digital synthesis. Timbre is what drives this composition. Harmony, scales, melody, pitch ... all that took a back seat to sound.

A secondary concern was, placing different sounds together in a way that made each sound highlight one another. Careful attention was given to the timbre of the moment, making sure one voice did not step on or mask any of the other voices. This was achieved by panning, time placement, and velocity control.
