Solitary Choir

Long, ethereal, quadruple-tracked vocal samples recorded at my desk whilst home alone.

The story

Between jobs and waiting to move house for the first time; most of my friends away for the summer, and I, home alone for several days, decided to create a choir – a solitary choir.

I recorded four takes of each note from G2 to C5, singing for as long as I could before running out of breath, and occasionally re-tonguing the notes to create a subtle swarm-like effect. I spliced each of the four takes into a near-continuous, very long note, and then copied and pasted these three times but starting from different takes.

  • GREATEST Choir Sound

    I LOVE playing melodies and chords with this! Great sound with a sinewave sub sound. Beware me playing a lot of Vangelis Chariots of Fire. I first heard about Decent Sampler on YouTube. Shoutout to Venus Theory for the sounds.

    Great work on this one, it has a very nice sound and I can see it working well in a mix blended with other instruments. I'll give it a go.
