All I want to make right now are these gooey noisy chord / drone / texture things that slowly shift and evolve. No melody, no meter. Pure sound bath, dumb and beautiful.
The video features 100% wet Mood MKII using the “drip” delay to pitch everything down and chop it up. There’s no raw tape in the mix, it is all Mood (in spread mode btw, turn your phone sideways for stereo stuff).
if the theory of sam reich being replaced by .. evil wizard dalton reich (and i cant believe i am partaking in this discurse) is true..
i've seen some people asking the question about what those childhood tapes mean. Well i am one of the ancient ones that owned vhs tapes and you know you could replace whats stored on those tapes with overwriting it with new material but it would slowly degrade the quality as the magnetic tape the information is stored on isn't necessarly made to be re-recorded on indefinetly which would also explain the degrading quality of the gamechanger episode.
So my theory is that dalton reich wants to erase sam from history and to do this he is slowly erasing any proof that could hint on sam and dalton being two different people. One thing he appearantly needed to do is overwrite these old vhs tapes of sams childhood.
In three days I will cease to exist, my friend. I must now leave to prepare for that event. You must consider me a device which has failed its programmed function, merely that. I wish I'd learnt more of human kind. Your own concept of your creator. I've seen much to criticise of mankind, but I believe there's even more to admire. Had I more time, I might have even learnt to understand humanity's greatest of all achievements: the ability to feel love for one another. And I thank you for teaching me the meaning, at least, of the word friendship.
