thoughts as dust

chicago thinks its spring today & next month i’m leaving this apartment. going 2 miss this little studio room :c but I made a dumb goal for myself to record one more synth video here before I go
there are some practical reasons for leaving (don’t want to assume downstairs will be into my piano plonking once I get back to it). but honestly, I think it’s just the way things pile up in each room - thoughts, anxieties, bad habits - it feels hard to be a new person when the old one’s dust is still settling around. maybe I’m just bad at changing, but I could use the help.
this is my first patch on the full system that I’ve been planning for the past few yrs - eurorack + nornses, all tied together with a flock of crows & MSW BLNs for line-level interchanges. managed to use just about every module for something, but some heavy lifters are piston honda + just friends sequenced by eggs (left norns/64 grid), two tracks of ndls (center grid/norns/arc) swirling up a piano sample in a morphagene-inspired configuration, with the other two tracks resampling honda+jf and sending it back into a modulated bionic lester mk1. and underneath all that nearness is mixing together a mangrove, radio music, and quantum rainbow soup with quite a bit of AM across the trio for texture.

this looks like such a comfy corner, I can understand its hard to let it go. but lets toast to new beginnings!

very much related to your description. i'm away in the countryside at the moment and after a week with more space to reflect and breathe, i've decided to begin searching for a new home as soon as I return to the city we follow ourselves wherever we go. but a new space offers a chance to recontextualise that relationship good luck with the move!

Love this piece my friend. I've been into Eurorack for about 6 years and never heard of some of the gear you are using! Subscribed! Good luck with the move 👍
