Charlie Hoistman: Skittery I (excerpt, 2011)
“Skittery 1″ is a short excerpt from a longer 25-minute electronic piece made with SuperCollider, my preferred noisemaking environment. I had made lots of pieces in a kind of Fripp & Eno style long-delay, sound-on-sound method, using steady tones with long attack and decay. I wanted to try a very different texture from this, so fed a sequence of some of these same tones through a short clipped envelope with an extremely short attack and release, which had the effect of chopping them up into short staccato blips. As I recorded the results I tweaked the note and delay length to alter the texture. Harmonically, the piece uses a pentatonic scale using Just Intonation.”
