porch tune

Eight bars in G. Play them, turn things on, and keep what you make as a file. Then look at it beside what a room made of it.

LAST NOTE TEMPO 60 bpm

The score: change the notes, or write your own

Bars split by |, notes by ·. Each note is a pitch and a length: G q, F# h., D' e. ' is an octave up, , an octave down, r a rest. Lengths: s e q h w, and a dot adds half.

The whole recipe is this link. Send it, or write one yourself: it sets the score and every switch, exactly as the dials would.

Boweach note is drawn from a string: a softer start, a breath, a vibrato that blooms
Floora low drone joins early, swells, and leaves first
Wobbleeach note wavers and lands a hair early or late
Triangleone small strike, off the beat, past the middle
Held breaththe second-to-last note rings into the last

What it became

The first one, on the night it was written: the tune as it left the page, and as it sounded played aloud in a room.
