Remote Duets project
Hello! Thanks for your interest in this project :) If you know anybody else who might be interested in taking part please forward this link on to them and tell them to get in touch with me.
(TL/DR: download one or more of the tracks in the playlist below, record yourself playing along with them (just you, not my stuff on your recording), send it to me, I shall do magic with editing.)
The project is as follows:
I have made an improvised recording and posted it on Soundcloud here:
https://soundcloud.com/petemaskreplica/sets/remote-duets-tracks/s-Q6udlF5ZiEj
The idea is to have a number of musicians record duets with these tracks. I then edit recordings together that were recorded with the same original track. My track will NOT be part of this. So e.g. if Jane and Freddy both record a track to go with my track 1, their efforts can be joined to form a duet between Jane and Freddy, separated by the degree of my track. If Rod also records a track to go with my track1, then his contribution could become a duet with Jane or a duet with Freddy.
There is an obvious potential expansion of this universe but I'm keeping it to duets for simplicity's sake for now.
Durations of the track are:
Track 1: 3'08"
Track 2: 3'08"
Track 3: 3'08"
Track 4: 4'03"
Track 5: 6'52"
Track 6: 3'10"
Track 7: 23'26" (this is the unedited recording from which tracks 1-6 were extracted)
If you can only do a single track it will be gratefully received. If you want to do more that will be amazing! The more I have the more possibilities for combinations. The key thing is not to over think it - go with first thoughts and lo-fi sound, or whatever you eenjoy doing. I gbegan this thinking of it as an improv project but other approaches are certainly welcome. Do whatever makes the process of recording with my recording an enjoyable and satisfying experience for you.
I'm thinking of that part as a gift to you to be done for your own artistic satisfaction. The later mixes when you find yourself unexpectedly paired with someone else are a bonus experience, a different dimension. I'm thinking here about a range of processes - perfoming, creating, collaborating, recording, listening - and how they intersect and interact, and how we can reconfigure those relationships to work in a satisfying way remotely/virtually.
Send finished tracks to me via Dropbox/ WeTransfer etc: info[at]peternagle.co.uk
Any questions, drop me a line! Thank you x
Boring legal stuff: all particpants retain copyright in their own contribution. By taking part I am assuming you consent to me using them for this project. I'm not anticipating any money form any of this, but I shall put tracks up on Bandcamp and if anyone does bung big money for them I shall most likely donate it to Hundred Years Gallery/ I'Klectik while all this lockdown shenanigans continues. if someone pays a million for it you will get your share!
