Kamal Sabran-Adam James Davis: Re-Imagining Sound




"I was inspired by the concept of potentially infinite recycling, remixing and results from one source (or, to go even deeper, infinite recycling from infinite sources) and so I decided to create a follow-up to Re-Imagining using exactly the same track Kamal sent me before. Not only am I interested in how something can be infinitely recycled into infinite recombinations of itself, but also with how a process can instill it's own characteristics onto a copy of something; distortion, if you will, like how a photocopier does. Thus, I added my own sustained chorus sounds, which were not part of Kamal's original track and the only feature not so, as a reflection of this. I also feel Re-Imagining II, as well as other works, is an exploration in rhythm outside of standard periodic pulses because of the aforementioned re-cycling processes and because of the "daisy chaining" of effects units, both of which I consider to be examples of a more conceptual rhythm rather than the kind we are familiar with when something pulses across time."
