welcome back to the singularity!

A second experiment with my new Rytme sequencer. This time Rytme is being fed into Logic to a track containing Kore 2 which is, in turn, hosting Kontakt 3 and the lovely Guzheng from Soniccouture (I bought the instrument before the new year but…

Originally conceived as a mellow-ish, Stephen Stills sounding number (at least the verses), then the chorus came to me out of nowhere and turned the whole song on it's ear. I think that was for the better. I have to admit that I surprised myself…

White Light was written in June along with 10 other "Off the cuff" tunes. Just before the great flood in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Our house was flooded and slowly being rebuilt. This is 4th of the 10 to be recorded.

Another remixed tune to add to the Goran Bregovic collection. Let me know what you think! I usually hate house/trance/ 4-floor beats but this was fun to remix and program.

I'll always try to be there for you . . .

So I got Stylus RMX and this was my first attempt to use it multi-timbrally in Logic. It was accompanied by Elysium playing Omnisphere and me playing Reaktor on the keyboard. I still have no idea how to come up with bass lines so this was me playing…

This is a live in the rehearsal studio recording direct to Zoom H2 of our band Airport Seven. See myspace. The "playa" refers to the desert where Burning Man happens. If that's news to you - google it and go.
