Process notes

Two words that mean “minimal” – “clean” and “essential.” These two I rendered through sound in this piece.

“Essential” made me think of Junto Project 0530: Minimally Viable Music. I’ve been finding many opportunities presented in later Juntos to touch back on that concept and the methods I used to complete that project.

I started outside on a relatively warm October night for New York/Long Island using iPad/Audiobus with Burns Audio Spectrum through some Bleass and AudioDamage plugins. Spectrum is a suite of iOS plugins that use open source code from Mutable Instruments.

I used two earlier short sections of this 36 minute piece. One was a false start, a recording of about one second. Both were placed into their own track in Ableton Live and using Live’s warp modes, “cleaned up” to produce something more intermittent, cleaner, more essential. Both were then treated to a number of Max For Live devices before being committed to flattened audio tracks and ultimately mastered with Ozone 9.

This original version of “Sanitized For Your Own Good” was submitted as part of ​Disquiet Junto Project 0616: : Definition Jam. The Assignment: Explore, in music, the nuanced differences between two closely related words.

Album Review: Gene Clark – No Other (1974)

https://youtu.be/Gu4KRduDiuk Gene Clark was the best songwriter in the Byrds early period. Many consider this a lost classic & his last great offering. Some call it a forerunner to late 70s blockbusters like Rumors, though less conciliatory to pop norms.
