False Start pays homage to logreybeam’s electronica roots, and utilizes his growing analog synth arsenal. “Reminder” is wholly sequenced with SH101’s on-board sequencer — a ‘quirky beast’ that gave it an odd time signature and drifting tempo. “Scales of Vociferation” was mainly written by a scale-based, random sequencer patch that triggered various synthesizers.
Many of the beats and melodies on False Start are controlled and sequenced by MAX/Msp patches triggering hardware, then subject to logreybeam’s fine instinct for arrangement. Heavily used on the EP are: Korg MS20 [vintage], Roland SH101, Ekdhal Moisturizer and Sherman Filterbank.
Half of the tracks on False Start are collaborations — “Marinetti vs. The Golem” with lure, Vibrane on “Technological Forgery” and “Autumnal Tints” with Latrondex and his stash of vintage drum machines.
