Butade's Daughter from Descent by David Prior

'Butade’s Daughter preceded Other Spaces by some years, and was created entirely in the studio, without the interpretation of a live performer. I used a bass guitar that was in the studio was working in and combined it with material generated in Cloud Generator, an early granular synthesis tool developed by Curtis Roads at Les Atelier, UPIC, Xennakis’ studio outside Paris, where I had the privilege of working myself in 1997. Like Other Spaces, my intention was to make something fragile to the point of disappearance.' David Prior
