Sunday, August 21, 2022: Three months ago today, Corduroy Institute added a second melodic layer onto Corduroy 73.
Most of the first melodic layer was riddled with uncertainty and rambling deviations which failed to convey a sense of purpose for this piece. The end of that improvisation, however, provided several glimpses of worthwhile avenues for exploration: A two-note Mel9 sliding ostinato to undergird the harmonic content and a V-Synth figure which relies upon just four notes.
After a lengthy respite, we decided to record a new layer in which we focused on maximizing the effectiveness of these motifs. This self-referential act was nearly akin to sampling one's own self. The reductive approach allowed the song to move more concisely, permitting the rhythmic content to shine through without being muddled by clashing harmonic content.
Unfortunately, our performance of this new melodic layer was not recorded by any video camera. Any expressions of satisfaction about this performance are forever lost to time, but let it be clear: Corduroy 73 appears to be complete in terms of musical content.
As the session concluded, it remained to be seen whether the piece would be given vocals. Furthermore, we still had to devise a way of contending with the problems caused by the occasional loss of MC-707 drums due to mistimings on the Scatter function.
Whatever became of Corduroy 73? Further details forthcoming.
