Speaking of "tonal" arrays that are 12-tone, but very slow, here's a nearly 10-minute background that stands on its own, almost. Sounds like something Mahler might have written after he was already dead and moldering in his grave.
It starts with:
D#.D..G#.F#.A..C#.C..E..G..F..B..A#
F..A..C..A#.E..D#.G#.G..C#.B..D..F#
A..D#.D..G..F#.C..A#.C#.F..E..G#.B
F#.F..A..C..A#.E..D#.G#.G..C#.B..D
which takes about 4 1/2 minutes, then hits a low B, and goes to:
G#.A..F..D..E..A#.B..F#.G..C#.D#.C
F..B..C..G..G#.D..E..C#.A..A#.F#.D#
A..F..D..E..A#.B..F#.G..C#.D#.C..G#
B..C..F#.G#.F..C#.D..Bb.G..A..D#.E
Ending pretty clearly with that G# triad over E, with an added D-B-G# in the bass.
I'm thinking of it as a nice dark landscape that I'll mar with all kinds of human developments -- oil pipelines, shopping malls, condos, resorts, and a sewage treatment plant next to the rec center.
Or, more literally: I'm going to chop it up a little, process using Alchemy, plus filtering and sampling; then compose more active stuff on top of it.
But it's a good idea to document a nice background before I ruin it.
