Tim Exile has announced the release of a generative groovebox and sequencer for Native Instruments Reaktor.
Scapeshift is designed for creating evolving, morphing and cross-pollinating rhythms, melodies and textures.
I started building it in a hospital bed as a tool to soundtrack videos. I was documenting my recovery from major cancer surgery and I wanted a tool that would be fast and flexible and output ready-mixed music.
But I’ve ended up using it for way more than that. It’s become an inspiration machine that can take me all the way to a finished track. I’ve already written and released a full EP with it. Right now I’m listening to it in Wander mode, getting my mind melted as it weaves through continuous variations.
Scapeshift is available to purchase at Tim Exile’s Patreon store for $59 USD (ex. VAT).
