Maybe should have saved this for Halloween. Another oldie, this was really just a demo - keyboard, drum machine and voices/effects on a cassette - the whole thing recorded via the built-in mic of a second cassette player. Hi-tech or what ? Although…

Another one created by bouncing tracks between 2 ordinary cassette recorders. Includes some of my earliest samples [made on cassette], not to mention chanting Buddhist monks and the voice of T.S. Eliot reading from 'Four Quartets'. Tried to fit…

This track and the preceding (Hammer Into Anvil) flow amazingly well into each other. Reminds me, for some reason, of late nights at the Roundhouse in Chalk Farm (which probably dates me more than I'd like). Another pint? oh, why not ....
This, folks, is the very first Frankenstein Sound Lab track, all the way from 2000 - pre-computer days, this was recorded on an ordinary cassette recorder. Listening to it prior to posting, I think it actually stands up quite well today.
Hard to believe this is 11 years old; seems very up-to-the-minute, especially with the Great Tribulation (once again) seemingly upon us. Really cool synth work. Much (all?) of it seemed to be in 7/8, one of my favorite off-kilter time signatures.

Another oldie from the cassette era, circa 2001. The title ? Cant remember...think it might have been in Esperanto, but why now escapes me...probably meant something at the time.
Having done 5 versions of 'I Reached Out To Jesus..." on the RAWHEAD & BLOODYBONES album I rather thought the subject had been well and truely milked dry. I was proved wrong by SKITZOFARI PROJECT, who did this wonderful remix - the version…
The basics of this track were conjured up with a neat little programme called i2sm that converts photos or paintings into sounds [its free - google it]. The music here was generated by a photo of, yes, a Sunflower in an urban backyard.
Soundtrack for a film of a street packed with consumers [January sales, etc] speeded up slightly to give a sort of manic, desperate air... must consume ! must consume !
@captgene - yeah, it was recorded on an ailing 4-track cassette nearly a decade ago. I did toy with the idea of totally revamping/adding to the whole album, but... in the end, decided to let it stay how it was.
Someone said, this song sounds like a meeting of Leonard Cohen and Brian Eno in a Bucharest nightclub. Someone else said, it sounds like someone fell down the Nick Cave well. You decide!
A composition written backwards. I started with the relative harmony/coherence of the final measures and retrogressively dismantled it, concluding with the relative chaos of the opening.

this is awesome...
Wow mate you are out there. this is good sick but good.
Nice mix mate. Sunderland I remember going to see me granny there back in the 60s Roker I think it was.
huge space...fat sounds...heavy, dark groove...broooooooding mix!
Everything I've heard from you is very easy to listen to.
hi
Nice and moody; my favorite kind of sound.
cool, dude. Love the synth.
good !
interesting stuff
like the hard panned percussion groove loop...gives it a heavy-swing, fly-wheel effect.
I too have been experimenting with i2sm.... Check out my posts 'Experiment #1 & Nanobots in my brain' for 2 of mine. Great fun. LG

Possibly Cohen & Eno pushed down the Nick Cave well...by Tom Waits ?
Good stuff !
Nice !
Trip through a sonic landscape
A ride on a mutated ghost train !
You know, I could just imagine Jerry Lee Lewis recording this.
Interesting, in a Stockhausian kind of way.
Nice. I like this.
Zappa influenced ?
Hah, yes - Groucho in a boat on the river with his guitar...and the duck. Nice reworking.
Reminiscent of Sun Ra - thats high praise, btw.
Really enjoyed this. Excellent !
I dont understand a word of it...but yeah, I like the sound it makes.
Would be excellent as part of a film soundtrack. Drifting slowly through a cityscape is what it says to me.
It works great as an instrumental, in my opinion.
Like a strange updating of Doo Wop - like it !
