I'll be interested in hearing it for sure.
So how much of that song was you and how much was the Greek fellow? I've been thinking about doing a couple collabs with other artists and I've been approached by a few, as well, just never had any experience working on music with other people outside of my dozen+ highschool metal bands (LOL)
What was your guys' process, if any?
Never heard Blue Sky Black Death, will have to check them out.
50% of the sounds are field recordings that I would go out and record with my H4n (TV static, closing a piano bench, electricity noises, the piano line, etc) and we would sit and create ableton clips of our favorite parts of those recordings and make loops that way. We often take the field recording loops and cut them into midi clips using the "slice to midi function" in ableton and quantize sounds to create a rhythm, or sometimes we could take sounds and bring them into Melodyne and create melodies out of inanimate objects because it analyzes the pitch of things in interesting ways.
As far as the melody and bassline at 1:40, that is Kostas. It is played on the Roland V-Synth GT. I play the string/synth line that comes in around 3:15 which is a Reaktor synth patch. The piano around 5:40 is a just a slice of an improvised piano piece that I recorded with my H4N and we chopped that little loop out of the field recording and looped it...and also reversed it at sections.
The resonating wind you hear throughout is a feedback loop created with a Pluggo plugin called Feedback Network.
