The beginning of SADIST takes us back to 1991, when
guitarist and keyboards player Tommy and drummer Peso start
auditioning musicians for a brand new project. These
auditions lead to the first band’s line-up within a few
weeks. The line-up is completed by bass player Andy and
singer Fabio.

Within few months the band was performing original material
at local clubs, where they caught the attention of the indie
label OBSCURE PLASMA RECORDS’ owner.


cool track,man. fuck the thesis, make more

I like the beginning and from 2:00ish on. The drum part in
the middle sounded like an unfitting addition, made of drums
that sounded too normal, not glitchy relative to the
beginning.
What software/hardware was used on beginning?

track made in ableton.

that begining is some weird vst plugin called "bitspeek".
shown here. (try to not mind that anoying asian
dude). i found it boring to put it on some vocal (which it
is intended to) so i put in on a synth line that is also
modulated with several envelopes. it also sounds kinda cool
on drums. but it's funny for maybe one track than it's
getting ind of boring.

with tha drums in the middle section - it's actually the
same drums till the very end. the part from 2:00 is actually
that same drums. the "glitchiness" of the drums is basically
made by creating a loop within each sample and changing it's
length and the sustain. between 1:55 and 2:05 i'm making the
loop very short and the sustain quite long so you get this
weird squeaky sound. there is also some bit reducing effect
added because without it that squeak got annoying very fast.


there would be a much better effect when the track would
last about 6 minutes and the loop length would be slowly
getting shorter so the track would very slowly evolve and
finish completely different than the begining like in some
old autechre/gescom stuff.

but i didn't really have enough heart to listen to this
transition for so many minutes over and over again creating
other sounds for this track so i made this short breakdown
to chck if it sounds good. afterwards i added this
additional drums at the end and it kind of ended completely
not where it was supposed to end.

yeah well yea

yeah but it isn't really that mind boggling is it. and it
does like one single sound.

that should be more like a pluggo plugin than a standalone
one.
