//
MIHRAS GIHTAROS KASETAY/ the altered english pronunciation of a Lithuanian phrase meaning 'Dead Guitar Cassette'_
/
This composition features four movements built around a handful of field recordings of an abandoned out-of-tune guitar_These guitar recordings become the unique source for texture/ melody/ and digital manipulation heard throughout the composition_
/
This composition adheres to the STIR method of simultaneous recording and composing_In short/ the STIR |Single Take Improvisational Recording| Method allows the listener to be more active and participatory in experience of absorbing the record_The STIR Method/ one finds/ lends itself to illustrate nuance/ chance/ chaos/ and the elusive present better than traditional planned or orchestrated ambient compositions_
/
/
Three of the four compositions |save ŽMOGUS| are free of traditional synthesizers/ and instead are sonically built around various digital processing techniques and manipulations of the unique source material field recordings_
/
All tracks were edited on a combination of Logic Pro X and a Fostex Multitracker X-55 four-track audio cassette recorder_
