Phase – Blur – Again – Chris Muir

4ms Catalyst Sequencer drives four voices of plink, joystick note system drives a fifth voice.
4ms DLD captures phrases, and then I can move the phase of the Catalyst to create plinky/plonky points that are offset in time.

The Lunar Asylum is a loose accumulation of musicians that have been playing together for over 50 years. Almost all of our music is completely improvised. All communication is telepathic by nature. We seldom crawl out in public.

“Ever since Covid hit, it has been hard to get together. So I’ve been mostly making racket in my home studio.” – Scott Moon
