New Music – C’est What

I’ve always been interested in how sampling can create staggered, non-linear phrases. So, for this track, I sampled myself improvising at the piano. I created hundreds of ‘piano bits’ and assembled them to create new phrases which are the melodies you hear in this track.
Because this was my first time trying this, I definitely spent too much effort creating these samples. Most of these samples went unused. Instead of hundreds of piano bits, I could have easily created just twenty.
Connected to this approach is how sampling and electronic manipulation affects performance. I’m tempted to learn how to play this!
