A few moons past, I was asked by the Daevl.Master to participate in an experiment dreamed up by Blue Deceiver and Martin Spernau involving composition with a stringent set of parameters: all sounds had to be sourced solely from a set of five original samples. No additional instrumentation, synthesizers, what have you. I, having a particular fondness for these kinds of limitations, immediately agreed.
Well, the project is over and public now, and you can hear what I and 7 other artists and alchemists (including Sugarknife remixer and all around instigator BlueDeceiver) did with those five base elements by pointing your browser over to the DaevlMakr.com 5 Way Path page. All of the tracks are available to stream or to download, so it amounts to a nice little V/A compilation. If you’re interested in hearing what the sources were, or giving it a shot youself, the original sample pack is still available from this page as well.
I also have to echo what BlueDeceiver said about these tracks – it’s incredible how different they are from one another. To me, that’s a testament to the creative powers of the contributors – each artist’s path took those original 5 elements in some very different ways, and it’s a beautiful thing.
