Encephalograph

from Ear Spread by Joseph R. Ellis

/

about

This track features the Behringer Poly D analog synth sequencer clocked by a BeatBuddy via midi. The BeatBuddy and Behringer provided the rhythm. The lead was created using a Moog Mavis mounted in a NifyKEYZ Eurorack keyboard enclosure, which was also clocked by the BeatBuddy so the arpeggiator would also be in sync. It was all connected to a Behringer USB mixer and captured live in one performance (no multi-tracking or overdubs).

The title was inspired by the idea that this song represents what goes on in a person's brain when they have insomnia. An electroencephalogram is sometimes used in the treatment / detection of this ailment.
