Michael Amason - As a Sacrifice

from Volume as an Independent Musical Construct by Various Artists

/

about

I created a base layer of looped and re-re-re-re recorded sound from broken effects, dead guitars, and empty synths all recorded on a four track cassette tape. Then all the audio was fed out at specific volumes into my computer. From that I only observed the recorded sound visually and randomly edited the entire piece based on the structure of the waveform. The piece focuses entirely on the dynamics of volume and the happenstance drones created from constant editing instead of traditional musical structure. What is rendered is a musical work that endlessly sacrifices it's musical potential.
