Rotational Asymmetries

April 4, 2017

Electronic work for two vintage instruments. Slowly evolving. Warm. Buzzy. Minimal.

Composer: Mike Olson

Year of Composition: 2016
Instrumentation: A Moog Model 12 modular synthesizer and a Hammond M3 played through a 31H Leslie speaker.
Type of Electronics: Fixed

Number of Channels: 2
Duration: 7:40
Video Component: None

Recording

This piece involves the first use of my recently acquired vintage model 31H Leslie speaker. I played my Hammond M3 through it and recorded various elements that were used in the construction of the finished piece using my fragment-based compositional process. I also generated some repeating and evolving short patterns using a Dot Com Q960 sequencer driving my Moog Model 12 modular synthesizer.
