Ether Diver<p>When I *did* start, I started with the same thing the track currently sounds with: fake "water" sounds. Noise through filters, mostly, especially <a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/QPAS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>QPAS</span></a>. I wanted to give the impression of a seaside without actually using recordings of such (although later, in the <a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/ProductionPhase" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ProductionPhase</span></a>, I did add some cassette recordings of surf, mixed low). The idea was to make it close...but not quite right. Off. Weird. Unsettling, even.</p><p><a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/PsychedelicGhostStories" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PsychedelicGhostStories</span></a> <a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/ProductionDiary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ProductionDiary</span></a> </p><p><a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/Songwriting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Songwriting</span></a> <a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/MusicProduction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MusicProduction</span></a></p>
Ether Diver<p>I think I also added just a touch of Hydrasynth, doing a few chord stabs, at this point, and then it was done! Kind of. It felt like it needed a fair bit more ... something, but I felt it was time to move on. When I returned in my <a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/ProductionPhase" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ProductionPhase</span></a>, the first thing I added was a more defined pulse. The <a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/Benjolin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Benjolin</span></a> was awesome, and in some spots it was all the song needed but in others... it more than meandered, it melted.</p><p><a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/PsychedelicGhostStories" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PsychedelicGhostStories</span></a> <a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/ProductionDiary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ProductionDiary</span></a> <a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/Songwriting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Songwriting</span></a> <a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/MusicProduction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MusicProduction</span></a></p>
Ether Diver<p>That's about it for the <a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/ProductionPhase" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ProductionPhase</span></a> . I'll answer any questions shortly and then move on to track-by-track coverage. </p><p><a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/HowItsMade" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HowItsMade</span></a> <a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/MusicProduction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MusicProduction</span></a> <a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/PsychedelicGhostStories" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PsychedelicGhostStories</span></a> <a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/ProductionDiary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ProductionDiary</span></a> <a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/Songwriting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Songwriting</span></a> <a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/EtherDiver" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EtherDiver</span></a> <a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/HomeRecording" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HomeRecording</span></a> <a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/MakingMusic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MakingMusic</span></a> <a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/MyAlbum" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MyAlbum</span></a> <a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/Workflow" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Workflow</span></a></p>
Ether Diver<p>The <a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/ProductionPhase" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ProductionPhase</span></a> started November 16 and went through Dec 15. I started with a couple of low intensity <a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/housekeeping" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>housekeeping</span></a> days. I rendered out the songs as they stood and went through my orphaned songs folder to see if there was anything worth saving in there. I identified two likely suspects and one more that was less likely but still possible.</p><p><a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/PsychedelicGhostStories" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PsychedelicGhostStories</span></a> <a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/ProductionDiary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ProductionDiary</span></a> <a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/HowItsMade" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HowItsMade</span></a> <a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/MusicProduction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MusicProduction</span></a></p>
Ether Diver<p>Back to <a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/PsychedelicGhostStories" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PsychedelicGhostStories</span></a> <a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/ProductionDiary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ProductionDiary</span></a> but instead of going to song-by-song breakdowns, I want to jump to the <a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/ProductionPhase" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ProductionPhase</span></a> first, so I can talk about *all* elements of the song in its dedicated thread instead of splitting it across a <a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/recording" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>recording</span></a> thread and a <a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/production" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>production</span></a> thread. Plus it dovetails nicely with the end of last night's thread.
