Video: Disrupter + Memeshift Live PA

April 25, 2010

Tagged as: Ableton, circuit bent, live, live pa, techno, TR-707

This was a live set that I webcasted with my friend David (a.k.a. Disrupter). It was really spur of the moment and features David’s custom circuit-bent TR-707 and Korg Electribe ER-1. I was using Ableton Live 5.1 along with a Behringer BCD-3000.
Most all of it is live and improvised along with a [...]

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.

What To Do As An Unknown Artist/Musician

July 13, 2009

Tagged as: buzz, indie, marketing, NIN, promotion

I came across this great post via Hypebot via Nine Inch Nail’s site where Trent Reznor talks about how to get noticed if you’re a ‘lesser’ or unknown artist. I’m sure there’s loads of them.
I forwarded it to Nathan, Louis, David, Eric and Brandon and got this great conversation starter back from Nathan…
“I totally agree. [...]

Community – 2007

July 3, 2009

…so many different styles of music you know?
Recently, I got this SWEEET track – a remix of another track called ‘Community 2007′ from Audio Soul Project. A duo I really like called Peace Division did the remix and a fellow named Ron Carroll penned the lyrics.
I think the lyrics really say it all.
Community 2007

DJ Mix: Kira mix, February 2009

Tagged as: Downloads

Thumbnail image for DJ Mix: Kira mix, February 2009

Mix I made while waiting. I was anxious to get the party started – I mean, c’mon, Loco Dice’s mix of Hard South Americans AND the Claude von Stroke mix of Samim’s Heater? The toms of Danilo Vigorito’s Heka Dark Side took it to a darker place while Slutbox’s Filthy Fibber into Stimming’s The Anger [...]

A Sad Day: Telefon Tel Aviv’s Charlie Cooper Passed Away

January 27, 2009

Today is a sad day for me. Telefon Tel Aviv’s Charlie Cooper has passed away. Telefon Tel Aviv created some of the most beautiful music the world has ever known. I’ve played their tracks out at parties, cafés and art openings too many times to count.
Their music was also with me during the quietest moments [...]

How to Start Making Electronic Music

December 31, 2008

I love electronic music. I love making it, listening to it, promoting it and of course, helping other people create it. While I didn’t write these myself, I thought I’d share some helpful PDF manuals and guides I’ve compiled to get you started.
In writing this, I’m also assuming that readers have some kind of multi-track [...]

Track: All Good – Memeshift mix

Tagged as: Ableton, Downloads, dubulator, fwdthought, remix

Thumbnail image for Track: All Good – Memeshift mix

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 [...]

Track: Chud

Tagged as: 80's horror movies, c.h.u.d., Downloads, Plaid

Thumbnail image for Track: Chud

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 [...]
