snailsnail's noise works

noise works

hello

Treebait Consortium - the musical arm of snailsnail - produces occasional exercises in noise. It is now more or less consigned to scoring Over My Head films and so little gets done around here, although much is envisioned. It'd really like to play live really.
snailsnail is indebted to those who help by playing on some of these tracks.

You can press the play buttons next to the tracks to listen here or right click and save as on the download links to keep and listen later.

All the tracks here are Creative Commons licensed allowing you to basically do what you want with them providing you attribute me and link back. Check this link for more info.

This New Model Sound Experiment
Credits:
Effects and Mix - snailsnail.

Created to be the soundtrack to the (very) short experimental film New Model Experiment [YouTube Link] this was largely generated automatically from stills from the film using RGB Music Lab. The resulting midi files were then applied to a variety of instruments and effects and mixed together.

Mix - snailsnail.

A lost and found track remixed 5 years after it was first made, hence the title. I've no idea how I first made the track, although that's a Microsoft Speech Synthesiser in there.
