Imminent Quench (4th Interchange)

Imminent Quench fuses an 8-bit synth with more modern electronic sounds.  This song features the most automation I've ever put into a single track.  Automation allows me to manipulate any setting and dial on my DAW as much or as little as needed to fit the moment bringing a more dynamic feel to the overall song.  The most basic kinds of automations are used for panning sounds and fading volume in and out.  Here I also applied them to knobs in the mixer to adjust FX levels on the fly, not to mention going a little nuts with the pitch and tempo.

After listening to the last few tracks I've posted here, I get the feeling I'm in a bit of a creative rut.  The music is all starting to sound the same and bleed together.  I guess that means it's time to try something new.

Hold on to your butts.

New Track - The Electro Monster

This track is brought you by Insomnia.

It's been sitting on a back burner since I first started it many, many months ago.  Every once in a while I'd listen to it I remember why I'd put it away.  When I couldn't sleep yesterday, last night, and then again today I didn't immediately consider working on music I just sort of ran out of other things I had the energy to do and was surprised when things on this one started to come together.  If this song  goes off the rails a few times feel free to attribute that to madness that comes with being exhausted and a complete inability to catch any z's.
