How I Did It

Audacity
Sawcutter 2.0
Samples I Used
The entire piece is constructed from Loveshadow source material.
Original Samples
I used Loveshadow's tracks to make patches for my synthesizer, and then wrote a new melody.
Process
I took the "May" track and sampled it to create a synth patch for the primary melody. I snipped, morphed and edited the other tracks to add atmosphere around the melody. I used the "bye" track to get some odd beats for the piece.
Other Notes
Though I had had a vague understanding that Loveshadow was a pre-Raphaelite reference, I was fascinated to read up on the story of the painting. I wonder about people like the model Miss Clive, whose stories are in the midst of but in some ways lost to history.
