New Album Release; A Lil Experimentation Vol. 1

5/01/2024 - New Album Release; A Lil Experimentation Vol. 1

A mixture of experimental music which is all single sessions that I made throughout the years and was under my other artist name Gas No Light but is now under my new name Game For Experimentation and all in album form. I like to put on FL Studio, the DAW I use, and experiment with sound and music. The album has synthy vibes, House music, and Drum and Bass/Jungle music, and mostly sounds I found around my house like spoons, electronic stuff I found in the charity shop, light switches sounds, cocktail sticks rattling and dog biscuits dropping in the metal bowl. It also has some unreleased tracks on there that are sort of experimental but don’t feel like it with tracks like Carry On and Moo Goes The Cow which wasn’t meant to be on this account but it’s up now so I leave it and anyway  it’s something different and like my other artist name Gas No Light where I make House, Jungle/Drum and Bass and Synthy vibes which isn’t experimental and is more of my serious stuff.  It also has some of Baby 3000 which is a unique baby doll that generates synth sounds from the built-in oscillator and makes noise with knobs on the head that molds the sounds one is an HP and LP filter depending on which way you turn the knob. For those who don’t know what an LP and HP filter is it stands for Low Pass and High Pass and it filters out the noise for a more smoother and harmonic tone and is how you make synths sound partly I think it does a good amount of work with the FXs and the messing about using Serum but it works for any I think. My favorite tracks on the album are Bombs Away and the last track Duck Duck Hoose which I made sometime in 2020 actually when we were in isolation due to COVID-19 well thank goodness that is over lol. I like Bombs Away as it’s a bit Jazzy and reminds me of Blues or Jazz and has an upbeat and jolly feel to it and I think is good for dancing or at least makes you want to dance. It’s a pretty fast song at 130BPM and is a mix of Found Sounds I recorded and music.  The other favorite on the album and that I mentioned before is the last Duck Duck Hoose the correct saying or game name is Duck Duck Goose which is a game you would play in school you ran around a group of kids and select someone by touching their head and saying “duck” you have to say “goose” as quick as you can or you will join whoever lost and is running around in a circle and around the children or you are out the game and sit out the circle is the alternate way to play it but the game might vary in different countries. I like the roughness of the song and the duck quack which is all over the track. Also, it’s a play on the word House which in Scottish pronunciation is sometimes pronounced Hoouse as in house but sounds more like goose which I made into Duck Duck Hoose instead of goose.

Trial & Error – Session 1

TRIAL & ERROR - SESSION 1

This post is an experimental post all about the experimental music I made using a cassette player, Tascam and FL Studio. I recorded the samples onto the tape player and used the Tascam device to get the sounds from there. The sounds are from my holiday videos and were when I went to a place called Flambards, an amusement park in Lizard, Cornwall in 2017, and also I used a public information film from the 70s. I also used RX7 to clean the file up a bit. This is the start of a series I’m doing with all experimental tracks using the cassette player and more experimental fun and is me trying to make use of the cassette player as I still haven’t used it that much I mean a couple of times. I’ve done some experimental tracks in the past so I thought why not do more with doing the Baby Bot and everything, also I posted quite a few experimental tracks on SoundCloud recently as I noticed I’ve done quite a few in the past but this is all for my website but all the links are in the description. It’s not one of the main genres I do but I thought I make more but something different from the Baby Bot 3000 and make something out of it on my website which is what I’m doing.

FLIM FLAM

Here are the tape recordings of the samples I recorded onto the tape and are from my holiday videos when I went to Lizard Cornwall in 2017 and a place called Flambards, an amusement park.

GRIM WUA

Here is what I recorded onto the tape and from the public information film which I think is called Dark And Lonely Water and is a PIF about the dangers of swimming in lakes and other water dangers. The other samples are from what I made ages ago and still have the samples of and some of my older track samples.

FINAL SAMPLES

Here are the final samples from what I recorded and that I Eqed and compressed not any effects on this one too I’m trying not to use the filters all the time as it will make it sound different.

FINAL TRACK

Here is the final track with all the samples from the tape recording and will also soon be released on all major platforms once I have enough tracks for an album.
