Charivna Kulya

This is a slow, ethereal soundscape as a remix from different tracks from Magic Bullet - an experimental project from my old chum, Mick Magic over at http://www.mickmagic.net/

The finished mix was constructed from samples, loops, timestetched drones and reassembled sections made into pulses and beats, deconstructed and reincarnated by Conny Plankton into this Dark Ambient Mix.

Heart Of Darkness

This started off its life as an experimental night made many years ago of a computer-based pinball machine recorded onto cassette tape. The recordings were digitised, cut up, arranged into loops and some converted into Midi Files to be used as different presets for the mighty Hive VST synth. The epic mix began to develop - chilled and ambient but with a dark atonal undercurrent running throughout: A Heart of Darkness indeed...

Sync

 As Autumn Slides into Winter, a new series of recordings from Conny Plankton does emerge: Fresh from the Chrysalis, the loosely connected theme this time round is connecting up multiple VST synths to play simultaneously – a new set up for recording, which also brought in various hardware synths and other devices to join in the melee. The results are as unpredictable as ever, as the mixes evolved under their own styles and directions. Enjoy folks!
