Sacrilegious K: The Traitor (the profane, the disturbed, the wrong)

[Download: audio | video | cover images]

A tritone sine wave is duplicated, phase inverted, and offset from the original at 1 ms per quarter note. The result is converted to MIDI twice with slightly different parameters for each. These MIDIs are played through the same virtual instrument. The four tracks are stitched together in reverse creation order.

A generated 220 hz tone is modulated with a 1 hz right sawtooth wave (to get sharp transients), and sent through a series of layered delays. MIDI notes are generated from that, randomized and sent through a chord generator, quantized to 128ths, and finally sent through a bass synth.
