Mechanisms by Michael Calamas
This piece is an exploration in pulse through the emphasis of various tuplets and polyrhythms. The relationship between 4’s, 5’s and 6’s are fascinating — sometimes leading into one another like a fluid, other times being stacked in a more mechanical, calculated manner.
The electronic track features glass and metal sounds that were recorded live by the composer. The overall effect of the two parts combined is both intricate but also slightly haunting, emphasized by a recurring motive in the crotales.
