Gletshn [disquiet0349] by Tim Bamber

Nice to have a prod to visit this.. I've always wanted to make more glitchy stuff.

I had a quick wikipedia, as my usual starting point for inspiration.. I like the idea of the glitch as an 'unexpected input'... a 'transient fault'... or "such a minute change in voltage that no fuse could protect against it" - although I wouldn't want to apply that concept to my Bus Limiter :)

Love the no-input mixer stuff and malfunctioning hardware too, but I don't have any :( so this is a software homage.. I played around with a paulstretch-ed field recording of some city ambience in Iris2, adding lots of LFOs with sharp attack or pinch curves all working upon each other and on different effects, mainly pitch and distortion but also chorus, gain, HP filter and reverb... a couple of passes and then a little editing.
