Sketch Book by Machado Mijiga
Sketch Book is an assortment of sketches I collected from the last 10 years of composing that had not been fully developed for some reason or another.
I try to make use of as many fleeting ideas as I can, so many of these sketches are transcriptions, resampled or orchestrated voice memos, or improvisations that I've added structure and sound design elements to.
I played all of the instruments, and the only samples used are of my own playing from phone recordings over the years.
I kept each track very short to focus on the themes and ideas, with a few sketches developing some musical vocabulary I've been working on, whether it be melodic, harmonic, or rhythmic.
Enjoy my Sketch Book. (Descriptions/inspirations available on each individual track)
