This was my contribution to the REM Drone Orchestra for October 2024. I used my Deluge to build the structure of having a new voice come in at 1 minute intervals, then drop out over the last minute. Setting it to 64 bpm made it easy to lay out…

This was a more experimental composition for the Deluge Discord group challenge for October 2024, to make a song using no overlapping sounds. I started with an arp, then a structured beat, then a drone sound, then made some combinations of them…

I might have gotten a bit carried away with the Deluge challenge this month, to make a song using only ring mod synth sounds. I just really needed an escape from troubled thoughts, and this is partially a reflection of inner turmoil and trying…

I composed this in MuseScore 4 as I wanted to test it out. I wrote it as a recorder quartet and intended to perform it myself, but I had trouble learning the sheet music for the different instruments. So I used four different presets from Arturia…

It wasn’t a good month for making a full EP or album for the RPM challenge, but I still got in some fun sound crafting and song making time, and produced something worth sharing. I created several new presets for the Deluge synth community firmware…

This was a group effort, with eleven other people contributing drones for the March 2025 REM Drone Orchestra, with the topic for the month being "birds". There were quite a variety of different approaches. My drone involved taking a field recording…

This was for both the Deluge monthly challenge, for which I had to come up with the topic, and the Record Every Month challenge, for March 2025. I only spent a couple days on it at the end, but I think it turned out well. I used the Deluge for…

This track started as an attempt to make something for the Drone Orchestra for April. I used my own presets on the Typhon (Dystope) and the Minilogue xd (Sacred Calls), but I found it didn't fit the month's theme of chaos well enough. I set both…
