My favourite aspect of long-form improvised musical works is hearing how different performances compare; what forms remain the same between performances and which are open to in-the-moment reinterpretation.
When I worked on my own long-form improvised work Murmurations (for monophonic analog synthesiser over a drone) I played a few practice takes, two of which are now available as bonus tracks for you to enjoy!
If you have already bought Murmurations over on Bandcamp then return to the album page to check out the new bonus material. If you don’t have it yet, it’s chill and it’s £2!
A long-form melodic improvisation over a drone.
Murmurations is a deep exploration of the 2)5 1-3-5-7-9 dekany where each section uses a different 6-note (hexany) subset.
Performed on a Korg Monologue.
