Hi!

Sugar-coated electronic rasp. Conjured up the image of a dancing, pink 
dridder-lady: http://thorwil.files.wordpress.com/2012/10/driddee.jpg, 
even though I would create much different music given that picture, first.

This project started as a test of Ardour 3's new MIDI and synth-plugin 
features (still in beta). In this role, it served in uncovering and 
fixing a number of issues and grew into something a little more 
ambitious over time.

Using snyth-plugins and automation works great most of the time. Issues 
are that it is too hard to try one plugin in place of another (you have 
to delete the first, no way to just switch between 2 or more). There 
should be automation regions, including cloning for flexible arrangement.

This is a very calfed session! The kick, bass and lead all come from 
instances of Calf's Monosynth. I switched from Jammin to Calf's tripple 
band compressor. I don't know if it matters in sound, but it does in 
convenience.

Also several Invada LV2, SWH LV2 and Mdala plugins.

https://github.com/50m30n3/SO-KL5 provides a "piano".

Two archives are among the files available, one with the entire Ardour 3 
session and another with single tracks in wavpack format. Wavpack's 
wvunpack command can be used to convert them back to 32 bit float WAV 
files. if you load the Ardour session, it will complain about missing 
files. Chose "skip", as I removed unnecessary files manually, because 
the Cleanup function has (or had) a known bug that messes up tracks with 
compound regions.

I still use archive.org to host files, especially the complete session, 
but added Soundcloud to get a player that will actually show up on 
wordpress.com:
