Slub: process-based sonic improvisations; live generative music using hand-crafted Macintosh and Unix applications (in networked synchrony).
With roots in UK electronica and tech culture, Slub build their own software environments for creating music in realtime. Only custom composition and DSP software is used - everything you hear is formed by human minds. The result is a rich, multilayered sound; fully controlled, but unpredictable to the point that every performance is different.
20010203_(folded) and 20010307_(folded) were folded down from two earlier, sprawling 20+ minute compositions (20010203.mp3 and 20010307.mp3 respectively).
