Three tracks of PureSalem Mendiola, some of it through the Reuss Effects Understate clean boost pedal. This one's gentle and slower, after an intense week.

As usual, there's a send to convolution reverb on each channel, and compression/eq on the stereo mix. Also as usual, the panning is static--one track in each position.

The title comes from the meaning of the place name Cousane in Ireland, along regional road 585.

some good old fashioned printercore. a low effort entry comprised of some improv on a sliced up breakbeat and some keys. the vast majority of the parts are actually sliced up parts of a single improv (per part) in new orders and rhythms. i didnt even have access to headphones for most of it... but that's all good! it's nice to just sketch with what i have available and let it be imperfect.

Story

This is actually one of the first beats I made on my OP-XY when I first received it. I liked it but never made it into a song. I decided to pick it back up this week and mess around with it some, and ended up really liking the result. Most of the sound is the OP-XY itself, but the bass is running through a reverb on the ZOIA that gives it a bit of extra grunt and gristle.

I am on a trip so I installed GarageBand on my phone and spent some time in the bullet train to figure out how to use it to make a track. It’s hard to change DAW and I miss a mouse but managed to do something. A track is a track.
