Daft Punk - Something About Us (cover)
I thought this was simply genius.  A cover of one of my favorite songs, by one of my favorite duos.  The performer is Randy George - a thereminist.  More videos by him (including a link to his site) can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/ooo6
(Thanks to Sander Dennis (a.k.a. Eprom) for [...]

This is one of my first pieces.  I made it completely in Reason 2.0 in 2001.  I’ve not much to say about it except that it’s probably the most complex ‘tonal’ piece I’ve done.  Lots of different melodies are in it.

Autechre - Gantz Graf
I’ve always thought these two pieces should be in conversation. The piece of the left is Marcel Duchamp’s Nude Descending a Staircase, No. 2 . I’ve always loved the piece. It has influenced me in so much of the music that I make. The visual ’stuttering’ of the painting [...]

Audio Soul Project : Community 2007 (Peace Division Remix)
Alexi Delano : What Is [...]

Richie Hawtin 2008 DJ Setup from Dean Koch on Vimeo
I totally dig this video and the things that Richie Hawtin is talking about. I’ve kind’ve come to the same conclusion about ‘djing’ with computers - when I ‘dj’ with my laptop, I’m really letting Ableton do all of the beatmatching for me, thus freeing [...]

This is actually quite an ‘old’ piece. I made this after seeing Squarepusher sometime in July of 2003. I was 23 and think I’d had a bad trip on some wierd mushrooms I ate. Ended up wandering around the streets of San Francisco gibbering to myself, freezing cold, wondering how I’d stumbled [...]
