One Two Four Six (disquiet0246) by plusch

As a learning exercise, I decided to do the audio and sequencing with Pure Data (https://puredata.info/). Pd's output was recorded into Audacity, where it was normalized and trimmed. I used Reaper only to arrange the large scale structural blocks. For the pitched material starting at 0:14, I patched some amplitude modulation using sin and sawtooth oscillators. The B section at 0:33 was similar, but with the pitches multiplied by the Golden Ratio (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_ratio). For the unpitched rhythm, I used Pd's noise object with filtering to create the different timbres. Simple sequencing was accomplished with a counter and Pd's metro, mod, and select objects.
