Excuse posting this which I just came across . Such fun. But some serious stuff to produce it. Now linked to Sonic Pi. … the mind boggles Seriously though you could record some nice samples to use with Sonic Pi I’m going to giver that a go.

Hmmm … hmmm… So if we scrape the page… figure out how to convert it to python and OSC… Yes! We could have our own ‘Sound Minions’ in SP! _Thunder rolls and Lightning Flashes_ Muhahahahaha!!! Dark Eli… (You know I’m joking, right? Yeah, joking… Sam… don’t look at me like that… Sam… Not the ‘Ban Stick’… Pleeease… Nooooooooo!) ---

I said I would have a play with this using Sonic Pi. Here is my remix of the sample Away in a Manger from Blob Opera. This track is a remix using Sonic Pi to control samples taken from the insanely great Blob Opera\* featuring the demo of Alway in a Manger. Three verses are played, with mixtures of the four parts sounding at different times. Each verse is increased in pitch by 1 semitone. Reverb and positioning in the stereo spectrum are also added. \*With thanks to David Li for a great project. https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?visual=false&url=https%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F950066239&show_artwork=true&maxheight=166 ---
