Alberto Guedea: "JTB.wav" (173KB)
Review:  As this bit is a compressed compilation of all my collected bits that I have composed myself, I believe "JTB" stands for "Jeremy Turner's Bit" - but I am not absolutely sure. Guedea took all my composed bits and mixed them into one single bit so it is a multibit vitamin, in a sense. I think this bit is a conceptual culmination of about 60 of my bits, if my memory is correct - I may have lost count ;-)
As Guedea works with timbral distortion, this descendent bit has a buzz-saw edge to it which suits me just fine. This bit is also excatly the same length as the component bits that I had composed so its original starseed still remains a bit-in-itself. (Jeremy)
An aural feast of compression, I was quite taken by this piece since my own aesthetic preferences run towards the noisy and multilayered. The distorted timbre here has a nice, very visceral feel to it, a warm crunch you sometimes encounter on cheap vinyl pressings. (Janne)
