The original CD (MPSCD001) was released in March 1994. Some notes on "CONTRASTS" (MPSCD001) - electroacoustic music composed, arranged, performed, recorded, and mixed by Carey Nutman. Track 1. Calm Study No. 1. (2.35). This is a minimalist piece. I improvised a simple chord progression using a Korg DW-8000 keyboard synthesiser. The MIDI data from the short improvisation was recorded into a computer sequencer and looped. Composed on the 19th of October, 1989. Track 2. Facing the Infinite, II. (8.45). In the late 1980s, Geoff Nossiter gave me a copy of a computer program that he had written for the Atari 1040ST computer. This program generates streams of MIDI data, which are controlled in real time by mouse movements. The results can be extremely avant-garde ! This is certainly a maximal mile from the calm of track 1. The sounds are mainly from a Yamaha SY-22 synthesiser. Composed in May, 1993. Track 3. Marimba Dance. (4.15). When is a drum machine not a drum machine ? When it is a Roland TR-505 with MIDI out, and the drum patterns are used to generate riffs which can be played by a quartet of (synthesised) marimbas. Composed in May, 1990. Track 4. Patricia. (3.30). This piece was composed in February, 1991. It started as a graphic score. My wife's name was writ large in the score, then turned into conventional dot notation. The dots occupy the positions of the original graphics - and it works ! Track 5. Ramps and Contraflows. (10.55). This work is divided by the Golden Se
