Cloud Session by Jarn Wood
All sounds created from scratch in Bitwig Studio (except for part of the rise sound in Cloud Mode which was a sample from Spitfire Audio Cinematic Percussion)
Extensive use of Audiothing's Outer Space tape echo and BABY Audio's Parallel Aggressor plugins.
1. Cloud Mode - when I made this I was happy with the rhythm track but the leads sounded kind of wimpy. I experimented with a couple of things and ended up with something that reminded me of Depeche Mode.
2. Cloud Harmony - experimenting with having the same melody repeating over different extended chords.
3. Cloud Rainbow - I was listening to "Rainbow Islands" by Apta when I made this one, this is my attempt at what computer game music might sound like.
4. Cloud Echo (Bitwig Version) - the LABS Version appeared on my last EP, this version is me recreating it using the Bitwig synths! I used Polarity's "Random Melodies" tool on this one. The tape-echoed arpeggios are inspired by Ffion (Thomas Ragsdale's floaty techno project).
