Empty the Bones of You - Chris Clark

This was a track I made shortly after seeing Chris Clark. I really liked his dense, gritty textures found on ‘Empty the Bones of You’ and attempted to emulate a little bit of that in this track. The opening bar is me beatboxing into a MicroKorg vocoder. I made heavy use of pitch shifting and time stretching within the track.

Plaid ii: Original Electronic Music Track + Ableton Template

November 7, 2010 Music

This weekend, I found a little time to try out (finally!) Ableton 8.  I’d been using Ableton 5 since it came out and never got around to upgrading.  8 in hand, here’s the first sketches of an Ableton track I’m working on complete with template and exported mp3 of my progress. Download the track Plaid [...]

Short track I worked on this week.  Just a demo – raw and unfinished.   I was inspired by a sweet dj mix my friend Alex Brandmeyer made (he had excellent track selection).  Bug him for it.

This was a track I remixed off of my good friend Louis’s Dubulator project. This particular brand of Louis’ music is harder – and of course dubbier – than his more pastoral pieces under fwdthought. You can listen to my remix in this post, or download the original track, ‘All Good’ here.  You’ll also get [...]

This was a track I made after seeing Plaid play in San Francisco a few years ago.  It’s an oldie, but I was inspired by Plaid’s technique of having really fast, rhythmic percussion in the cymbal/hi-hat frequency range with other rhythms in the lower percussive ranges (like kicks and even snares) slowly merging in to [...]

Track: Kids

September 25, 2008 Electronic Music

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.

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 out of the [...]

This is a song I wrote nearly 4 years ago.  I think I’ve gotten all the arrangement down for it, and I’m happy with the sounds though I wonder if there might be a few things to finésse.  There’s a brief bridge in the middle of the song (made with my Alesis Micron) that I’ve [...]

Track: Gutter

April 9, 2008 Electronic Music

Track I made today after spending nearly the whole day waiting in the Oakland Social Services office for foodstamps. Humbling and frustrating at the same time. I don’t think this song is really connected to it. In fact, it’s not. I was feeling pretty mellow and simultaneously inspired. Enjoy.

Track: Darby

This song I made while thinking about Luke Vibert and Orbital. I don’t now if it sounds anything like those two, but I kinda like it.
