i made this song up real fast. and i obviously threw it into the computer real fast. i have trouble with levels. but then again, that's what the songs about. let's hear it for Temper Tantrums!
This has your trademark thick vocal sound - those hits are just so nice and milkshake thick. Screw the levels, this thing sings and demands to be turned up no matter what. ANGRY GOOD!
This is another track resulting from a project in my digital music class at Oasis Charter Middle School (Spring 2007). Using a common pool of objects, my newborn daughter's baby instruments, I asked the students to create episodic sound illustrations…
102nd & Amsterdam is dedicated to by father, Raymond Boyce; this was the first of many New York addresses for him. My fathers stories of growing up in New York in the 40's and 50's cemented in my mind the idea of New York as The City, an idea…
i was born and raised on 135th. st. and amsterdam, im sure it was a far different place than when your father lived there in the 40s, yet this still evokes memories for me.e nice track
A couple of years ago i went through some pretty intense surgeries and i think this song describes the fear, pain and uncertainty that i felt during those times.
Again....thank you for listening.

Great sensitivity to detail, strong sound images. Put some more tracks up here!
Do you by any chance have any compositions that use the voice in a non-traditional way? I'm working on programming the upcoming season of Mobtown Modern, a new music series at the Contemporary Museum in Baltimore that I recently started with saxophonist Brian Sacawa. One of the programs that is still open is called "More Than Words" (January), concentrating on innovative treatment of the human voice. Let me know if you have anything that could work for that. By the way, do you teach in the DC area?

Every single sound source on this tune comes from a cheesy 70's Capitol Records promotional record. A great record, mind you, complete with faked dialogues between engineer and producer. At times, it's messy, so hold onto your faders.

Yay! More from A. Sweet! Who is drumming for you? Is it you? Lovely fills. Nice development and a good journey in the tune. Never stagnant. Good transitions. Oh, and the story? Love the present vocals. I'll bet the others here will join me in wishing you well.
You score extra points for coming up with the word, "bioelectrophilia" I'm sending one of my classical music buddies who wants to get into electronica (good electronica) over here to listen to your stuff.
This song is actually part 2 of a 10 minute set I did on my laptop. I broke it into 3 separate songs. Part 1 and 2 were my favorites, as part 3 just based itself on a copyright free sample I did nothing with. I like this one most because of the…

Oh my god, I would have loved to have a class in middle school where we got to produce stuff like this. Amazing.

I love this track. Is there a gamelan in there somewhere? How'd you get that spicy, non-western wink in the sound?
Your voice is so natural, I love it.
P.S. Great bunch of string players you've got here. Wow!
I've known people who fit the description of your father and (in memory) they sound and feel exactly like this. Bravo!

A Very cool idea well executed!
Oops! Forgot to log in. That was I.
The silky vocals--always curving smoothly, so effortlessly beautiful, nothing contrived or fake--I love your voice.
