dropped glass –
its ring
outlasts the fall

by: Darren Bourne

halF unusuaL is “an evolving space inspired by play in the spirit of ‘hai’ (meaning “fun” or “unusual” in the word haiku). Here, improvisation connects the unexpected, mining the boundary between music and non-music to shape sound worlds that feel oddly familiar in their oddity.”

You can find Darren’s music on [Soundcloud](https://ift.tt/lGrMB70) and %5BYoutube%5D(https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCb2bmRZgyBACkW6lnkTWHSw/featured?app=desktop), and check out his [website](https://ift.tt/oUcHuqE) to find out more about his publications and merchandise.

Electronic Reality Appliance (disquiet0709)

https://ift.tt/EKcnObC

Recorded, edited, mixed & mastered on 11 Nov 2020 & 31 Jul 2025 by Jim Lemanowicz at Blissville Electro-Magnetic Laboratories of Massapequa, USA.

Synths, effects

Process notes –

In Nov 2020, I started a video series that was mostly small electronic instruments and guitar pedals filmed from above. When I first started the series, I recorded a few test takes and I decided to use one of these as the basis for an entire album I plan to release this year and currently is in progress. This one was (probably) a Korg Volca FM, an old Electro-Harmonix Microsynth & a TC Electronic Nova.

Besides this recording, I also will use different synths to layer onto the original recording. For this piece, I am using some wavetable-layered-samples (as kicks, more or less), the Cherry Audio Chroma and the Arturia Mini. Each one of these I generally increased the resolution/speed of short midi phrases I wrote. This broke down some of the effects I had and did a few nutty things but I really liked how it fit right into the piece.

There was a sweet accident of feedback in the DAW that I captured and layered on near the end, too.
