Éclat Part 113

Avatar eclatcrew | October 24, 2023

This week's workshop comes to us a week late, because last week I was out in the Uckermark, in Brandenburg, communing with cats and nature on a residency at the wonderful Sternhagen Gut! And while it was extremely beautiful, the internet there was, shall we say, not great. So, here we are a week later, and I'm back happy to be on Berlin internet again (what a world right?)

BUT I come armed with a delightful folder of samples that I collected while out on a sound walk through the countryside! While I was out there I met some cats, creaked some gates, stomped some leaves, and generally had a delightful time.

You can download the folder of samples from WeTransfer here. The challenge today is to use ONLY these samples - EXCEPT for a kick drum, and other recorded instruments - but no other samples. You can stretch, warp, and effect the samples from the pack as much as you like though, so get creative.

Please upload your track to this Google Drive by 20:30 Berlin time, and then rejoin the Zoom call at 21:00 for our celebratory listening session!
