Shining through

Vox: Benedicite dominum
Rhodes; sometimes mercy
Mandolin: How can I keep from singing?
Additional percussion: cymbals and claps
FX: Full Blotter Granular plus various Renoise effects

I read Admiral Bob s impact statement in Mixter Plus ( I hadn t realised that there were such things there) and it confirmed my impression of the Admiral as a very relaxed, friendly and warm person — as well as being an extremely fluent musician. Yet in the navy Admiral is a very high rank, and I did have some trepidation in approaching this secret mixter.

I decided to work with one or other of the Gregorian chants thinking to use one that had not been used up to now. But I soon discovered that Radioontheshelf has remixed all of them. So I chose Benedicite and did my best.

Two days before submission date, I fetched my bass and acoustic guitar, freshly strung and set up,from the luthier. For a moment I thought of taking one of the Admiral’s tracks, removing his guitar and bass tracks, and playing the parts myself. But I had second thoughts, that would have been a very big shoe to fill!

As I am currently participating in quixit, I have become interested in tracking software, thus this track was made entirely in Renoise.
