085 – Tilted
In an attempt to freshen up my ideas a little, this piece is a sample of a section of music (uncleared, as I am not releasing it for any profit whatsoever). It should be extremely tilted and barely recognisable. It has been stretched and looped, effected and then had more of the same for good measure.
It has a haunting, ethereal, ghost-like feel to it. I have kept the volume low on purpose. It really needs headphones and a quiet, low lit space.
So although I can’t call this all my own work, I do hope you like it nonetheless?
If you work out what it is from, you will no doubt have a v.clever brain that can reverse engineer easily.
*UPDATE*
It’s a 90 second sample from Beethoven’s 9th. The rather surprising thing for me was that my twitter pal @hiddenplace pointed out this to me… I had no idea… http://www.expandedfield.net/. At least the idea was a good one, if not unique. I may well experiment a little more with less obvious classical pieces though.

Okay, this is my final answer. I’m guessing that the source material is from Beethoven’s 6th Symphony scherzo movement.

Nice try, but it’s from his 9th. However the sting in the tale for me is that it’s been done before and in a much grander way! ;) – http://www.expandedfield.net/
