Honor thy failures

Calton Hill, Edinburgh reimagined by Vlad Suppish.

"The original piece immediately caught my attention - melancholic and wistful, a truly rich sonic source, open for interpretations. Plans for it were epic at first but the compositional process became rather an exercise in reductionism.

"As a main tool were used Make Noise's Morphagene. Despite of dazzling possibilities it has I've decided to keep everything relatively simple, intuitive and immediate. Prepared loops on Morphagene were triggered by hand with Pressure Points while processing it in real time. 

"The recording process felt more like a live recording. A flute was added later as a cherry on top of the most climactic moment. 

"The final piece is not perfect. Mistakes were plentiful but sometimes in emphasizing them is the character and a beauty of the piece.     

"So honor thy failures as a hidden intention."
