#Movuary day 3 brings you a classic example of why I should not be allowed to make music like this, whatever this is supposed to be. I don't know how to classify it, and I wrote it. Creapy broken jazzy dub and bass? I dunno...

#Movuary day 4 is far less complex or refined than anything I've done so far.
I had a bad night's sleep, and a roaring headache, so I woke up and made this thing. Pretty much just slapped it down and said "to hell with it."

Posting for the forth time, because I keep breaking stuff.

#movuary day 6. It's the log song from Ren & Stimpy Show. Some may recognize the first part from something else.
Short, boring, to the point.

I am just so pissed off today. I will make no further comments.

#movuary day 7 isn't a track. Not exactly. It's an attempt to simulate shortwave radio conditions using a groovebox, which is, let's just say, not ideal, and certainly outside of the intended scope for such a thing. This was done by automating the parameters of a compressor, a phaser with it's frequency turned down all the way, and a couple of different high pass filters over time. The radio noise was sampled by plugging my Tecsun PL-990X shortwave radio into Move's line input, and tuning to a frequency somewhere around the 40m band with nothing going on.

I did this soon after I got my Move, but touched it up a bit since then.

#movuary day 8 is a thing that I put together in about five minutes. I call it the Dance of Doom.

#movuary day 10:
a Total Loss.

Several years ago, I had a dream. In that dream, someone (not me) was standing, watching as everything they knew and loved was burned in a fire. There was a sequence playing in the background. This is my attempt to somewhat re-create what I heard, at least in part, in this dream.

#movuary day 11: Ya Got Me.
This is based on samples from my Franklin Language Master 6000 SE talking dictionary. I sampled the really dirty pulse wave it produces in test mode, as well as some common phrases. This was all made with just three tracks, because I couldn't think of what to do with a fourth one. It's pretty busy as-is.

#movuary day 12:
This is not a keygen. It is, however, a sequence I made from memory after hearing one in the early 2000s, not having heard it for years before that. I have since heard the original. I got some notes wrong, but oh well. I'm keeping it like that.
This also happens to be a variation on the Alf theme, composed by Alf Clausen. An Alf for an Alf. How convenient!

#Movuary 14: Bad Brailler.

This is a much extended version of one of my earliest Move projects, using a bunch of samples I recorded of my Perkins Brailler from 1962 as the drum track.

#Movuary day 18: Xander Square

This is an idea that I sequenced originally in May of 2006 on my Yamaha Motif, now redone in Move. It's still about as finished as it was in 2006, I.E. not at all, really, but I'm posting it anyway.

#Movuary day19: My Paradox.

I woke up this morning with the chord progression from Black Street's 'My Paradise" stuck in my head, so I moved it... kind of. It's also a good excuse to have some solo fun with a synth lead sound.

For this one, I hooked up a MIDI keyboard, though I played most of the e-piano part on the pads. I made about 90% of this sequence without using the Move's screen reader.

#Movuary day21: Happy Modulation.

This is a track made with FM sounds. The drums are from a Yamaha PSS-170. It's way, way too happy for these times.

#Movuary day 22: Heidenröslein.

This is an extended and remixed version of a one-shot loop I made on October 11, 2024, the first day I had my Ableton Move,

This is an arrangement of Franz Schubert's Heidenröslein. Those who know me well will know why I did this.

#movuary day 24: Jazz Is Broken.

So, Onj sent me an unfinished set to play with, thus, I played with it. This originally had drums, keys, and a pluck/almost e-piano sounding thing. I added a sign wave lead and an organ, hastily recorded with my Hamond-suzuki XK-2 a few minutes before leaving for the airport, so I didn't have time to do anything truly exciting with the organ. It was a one-shot recording. Did weird broken stuff with the track, because jazz is broken.

#Movuary day 26: Sliding Sideways.

This is what happens when I don't at all take anything seriously, and do something odd with the four random sounds it throws at me when creating a new set.

#Movuary day 27: This Is A Doob.

Here is a silly minimal thing with Softvoice TTS saying "this is a doob" a lot throughout.

If you know, you know.

#Movuary day 28: a Sad End.

Well, here we are at the end of this Movuary journey, with a sad, slow thing in F miner that makes me wish for better times.

@BorrisInABox Do you have a zip of your folder like Andre does? I'd love to download it if so.

Andre Louis

@jaybird110127 @BorrisInABox It's actually a folder higher in the dropbox but you wouldn't be able to see that without a direct link. Patrick, feel free to send him the root Movuary folder, if you like.

@FreakyFwoof @BorrisInABox To be clear: what I mean is lossless audio of completed things, not project or other files you can use on a Move. I don't have a Move.

@jaybird110127 @BorrisInABox No, like I said his folder is sttored next to mine, but you couldn't get higher in the tree without a link to that. I fully understand what you were asking...
