Incunabula

Welcome to Clone Sound! I intend to use this space to explore all different aspects of sounds, particularly in the realm of synthesized electronic music and sample experimental music. The title "Clone Sound" represents a series of entries I will write about characteristic sounds that readers might be familiar with, and my attempt to deconstruct, explain, and then replicate these sounds.

The title of this entry, "Incunabula," is derived from the latin word incunabulum, a primitive form of a book. The derivation incunabula refers to the birth, beginning, or principle part of something. Incunabula is also the title of the first album by Autechre, a duo of experimental electronic producers who have been very influential on my music, and who will definitely be brought up a number of times here.

Stay tuned for a proper introduction coming soon.
