Drone Practice I [Still Alarm] ft PULSAR 23 & LYRA 8

A back to basics approach for a short series, practicing minimalism in rhythmic elements, finding a more steady pulse to build additional layers around, and focussing on smaller but rewarding harmonic payoffs over time - I want to find a space between emotive but still.
The PULSAR-23 is sending outputs from the BD module, and then LFO and CLOCK to the CV-DELAY in of the LYRA-8 - this causes the voices to react to the source when the mod wheels are dialled in. In the full session, the CV touch pads are used to make smaller changes in the LYRA-8's voices, the raw CLOCK-output provides rhythmic link between both instruments and the BD modules movement causes smaller changes, more like a traditional LFO might.
The LYRA-8 is primarily used for sustained notes outside of the mod-reactions described, with a harmonic relationship tuned by ear steadily. The usual coin trick is used at points to hold open additional intervals and allow for evolution in chordal qualities.
There is lot of movement in the FX parts for typical 'drone music', but the piece is still built on core dronology concepts.

Daniel, this is a real musical cosmos. How many mystical lives and unusual images. And this constant ostinato is a real catharsis for hearing and visual thoughts

Thank you for the kind words

what are the alligator clamps for?

This is how the instrument is 'patched'. You connect different patch-points together and it results in different sounds.
