about

Workingman's Drone returns with Year Four, twelve more monthly installments of carefully crafted drone music to be issued from January to December of 2021.

For the sixth volume, catalog entry WD42, I have used four low-frequency oscillators in Behringer 140/150 modules (themselves recreations of the iconic Roland System 100 sections) that have been driven into audible range and tuned/panned/filtered via slightly resonant low-pass filters from 2HP's LPF module and Disting's Mk4 module, with multed copies of these signals then sent into Mutable Inst. Clouds and Strymon's Magneto for alternative harmonic pitch deviations and a wider, thicker stereo image. This recording continues Year Four's ethos of exploring non-traditional signal sources as primary voices, such as low-frequency oscillators, self-oscillating filters and even no-input feedback configurations, as these tools often yield interesting and unique sonic results that so-called "standard" synthesizer voices may not.

A few more detailed thoughts about Workingman's Drone as a series, and where it sits in the landscape of ambient and drone music in particular: 17463.space/wdy4.txt
