I love fugues. I really think it is interesting that
the fugue has
slight tempo variations. Is that written in your fugue's main subject?
No, I
just wrote a tempo curve afterwards, going with my intuition for
drama. :)
...
2:13 has some interesting stereo phasing too which I
thought was really
cool. What was that?
It's the Calf stereo phaser. I love that phaser a lot, but
have rarely
used it in such an obvious way. I did use it in the same way and after
the same accelerando in "The queen is dead", just before the grand
finale.
Thanks for sharing this, fugues rock really hard.
Thanks, Brandon!
Best wishes,

Hey hey,
this is a three (or four?) part fugue, which I wrote for synthesizers:

OGG version:

It is a proper expansion of the "fughetta" inside "The queen is
dead":

This time I did not use the samples supplied by Loopop for his "Mega
contest", but my own hardware synthesizers. The main voice is the
Waldorf Microwave Xt, a hommage to the Waldorf M (wavetable
synthesizer) sound used in the original piece. The rest is all
analogue, exploring both east and west coast synthesis.
Again, there is a lot of automation inside the DAW to make the piece
come alive.
The fourth voice is introduced towards the second half of the piece
and is actually a variation on the leading motif shifted somewhat in
time. I think this is called closed voicing, though I may be mistaken. :)
I hope you enjoy it, whichever techniques or instruments are involved.
Best wishes,
Jeanette
