This NFT piece is a minimalist exploration of rhythm, harmony, and texture, created using the Roli Seaboard Grand piano and the Arturia CS-80v synthesizer. The Roli Seaboard Grand is a groundbreaking instrument, offering a multidimensional playing experience with its soft, expressive surface that allows for continuous control over pitch, timbre, and dynamics. The CS-80v, a software emulation of the iconic Yamaha CS-80, is revered for its lush, analog sound and unparalleled expressiveness, making it a favorite among pioneers of electronic music. Together, these tools create a rich sonic palette that forms the foundation of this project.

The piece consists of two identical two-bar tracks, one playing at 35bpm and the other at 36bpm. This subtle tempo difference creates a drifting effect, where harmonies, rhythms, and textures continuously evolve, producing unexpected and mesmerizing patterns. To further enhance the vintage, wobbly tape sound, the CS-80v was processed through the Arturia Tape Mello-Fi, adding warmth and character reminiscent of early analog tape loops. This project pays tribute to the pioneering tape loop experiments of Steve Reich, inviting listeners to immerse themselves in the hypnotic interplay of shifting rhythms and harmonies. Experience the drift effect and discover the ever-changing soundscape it creates.

I hope you enjoy the music! Love, Fendel

Dear YT, I am minting this as an NFT just to confuse people back on earth in August, 2021. lol. I couldn't sleep of course, so I got up to watch the sunrise. Zahora will arrive later with the tools to fix the drive pod. Oh, and I almost got in a bar fight last night with some drunk guy trying to sell me his junky old XT-Landcruiser 4016 model for 15 tezos! Nobody even uses Tezos here! Shenanigans of 5075 I tell you. Miss you lots, Enoch

Recorded with: Nexus6 synthesizer, LABS, Elektron Model Samples *Special thanks to @wwworonin for the artwork.

Dear Hic Et Nunc artists, fans, collectors, and beyond....

It’s Enoch Root here sending you this NFT from the year 5075. Actually NFTs haven’t existed in years. They were converted to Galact=k SunRa tokens with a special Interstellar Space I.S. Wallet in the year 3026. I won’t bore you with the details. You folks back on earth just started minting NFTs, and as I understand the party is just getting started. One piece of unsolicited advice from 5075: Keep minting your digital assets and supporting each other. You will be rewarded beyond your imagination. 
This is the operations control room here on cargo ship Meadowsweet. I know, “it’s a digital version.” The Federation doesn’t allow cameras these days. And that’s ok I guess. It’s not like we are into cattle rustling and train heists! Hmmmm… wait we actually do like those. They’re good for business. 

Keep on flyin’....Love, Enoch


Operations Control Room

Hi YT, I finally arrived in LA after flying all night. JF was right on time to meet me with the new grav boot. It should only take a few hours to install it. Ol' Meadowsweet will be good to go soon enough. Nice view huh?

Dear Robert Plant, 

In 1994 four Jazz musicians formed a band at Berklee College of Music in Boston. We all moved to Seattle because in ‘94 this was the place to be. Our band Bebop & Destruction played at lots of rock clubs. We’d occasionally cover your songs to draw people into listening to a Jazz band with an attitude or a drinking problem. Maybe both. We recorded several albums and before the copyright laws changed in 1999 we somehow did not pay for a mechanical license to record your song. We made 2000 CDs and I have exactly 247 left in my loft. We never intended to use anyone’s work without permission, but we were kids, and honestly we didn’t know a thing about it. I've felt bad about it for 20 years now. This is my formal apology minted as an NFT. I am giving away the track, so feel free to collect it. Maybe you could even sell it on the secondary market! In the meantime I will be sure to save a copy for you if you miss this. 

Thanks for all your music, 

Love, Marc Fendel and Bebop & Destruction (Jose Martinez, Dan Heck, Geoff Harper)
