A Page of Madness - Full Soundtrack - Live version for Salt Beyoglu by Sumatran Black published on 2018-05-27T21:12:50Z This is the live performance from April 28th at SALT, Beyoglu. Here's a little background. Since this was my first live performance as Sumatran Black I wanted to reduce the stress levels as much as possible and simplify the live work flow. Essentially the core of the soundtrack was composed and recorded prior to the performance (you can find that version on Bandcamp- https://sumatranblack.bandcamp.com/album/a-page-of-madness-a-sumatran-soundtrack). I divided up the score into chunks or "pages" that I could cue whilst the movie was playing via Ableton Live. In addition to this I created a large array of send/insert effects that I could manipulate during the performance. I think there were 8 main effects sends that did a variety of strange things. Once the main compositions were completed, the design of these effects sends was the most time consuming aspect of the project. Some of the effect manipulations were very carefully planned out and timed to the exact second (if I played it right ) and I also allowed myself some areas where I could improvise. Also, there was a technical issue with Page 1 of the live recording, half was missing, and so I recreated that Page in my studio as best as I could. Live, one take and no edits. I hope you enjoy it SB Genre Soundtrack Comment by Trevor Kowalski Powerful stuff 2018-05-29T02:30:43Z
