Alex January - Sine Language

about

Part of the process of making a longer piece that I'm still working on.
It's an attempt at building a music language solely out of sinewaves.
It's also a sort of prayer, or a contemplation

Un dévouement par le dénuement

The only sound generator is a reverb pedal that is plugged to itself (hence producing sinewaves through feedback, like a very rudimentary oscillator) then goes through a bunch of loopers, set at variable speeds in order to add harmonics and subharmonics to the sinewaves.
That's all. No filter, no fancy waveshaper or modulator. A very minimalist setup, which is also, obviously, a nod to Radigue's work with feedback and tape loops
