It's been so long since I've made any music I've kind of forgotten how. I was just noodling about and thought I had a sound I liked so I bounced it out quite quickly.

Thanks for the kind words both. Chris it is a pretty good idea but I can't take any credit for that, I got it from Pendle @ SoundDust. He uses it to build his Plastic Ghost Piano and I thought it sounded like something cool to play with.
I told the [good Sister](http://alonetone.com/sistersavage) that I wanted to try using vocals in a track and she offered to do me some abstract, stylized, vocals that I could play with and this little number is the result.
Working with wet (pre…
I'm trying to experiment with intentionally combining two different sounds. Since I seem to find this difficult I am starting with using a drone as one of the sounds taking my inspiration from the opening tracks of the Brian Eno & Jah Wobble…

I've had a bit of a love/hate relationship with this one.
I enjoyed making the beats and think that part came out pretty good but everything after that felt rather haphazard and didn't feel right to me.
I was close to abandoning the track…
No rhyme, no reason, just a colony of mournful machines piping their clangorous, grinding sonorisms at each other across an barren electronic landscape.
This will also be some of the source material that I will process later into something…

This is the first track made with my new Reaktor instrument 'Super Scanoid' which might just have well been named '1950s Sci-Fi Soundtrack Generator".
The sounds it makes with this sample (a bouncy pizzicato cello) reminded me of the score from…
A rather more fundamentally experimental piece with Reichenbach's new *drift* mode. In this mode a probability matrix controls periodic changes in the loop length and/or position.
Once more I am using one of the awesome [Rekkerd mixed bag](http…
A demo track for a new Reaktor instrument I'm building codename: Mimetron.
Loop Guitar 1 is a long, flowing, ambient piece. Mellow with a few moments of grit.
Mimetron is a 3 voice sampler that is driven by incoming audio. It has 3 channels…

Sister Savage has a little star in this track!
Melody based on 'ah! vous dirai-je, Maman,' by Mozart.. the original composer. I think it's the first and second variation of 12, but that was like 15 years ago that I learned the piece so I have…
Written today.
recorded on an iMac with the internal mic and no headphones (!) so it's probably going to be muddy as hell, but that feels about right for now.
LYRIC:
Fill up the glass, Bartender
Ply your art
Quench the fire in here, now…
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…
the first multi track piece that I actually finished "in the box" in Cubase. An ambient kinda thing that grew out of playing around with the Line 6 DL4. Not sure I like the bow parts, but I may re do it later
Had a guitar lesson today. Jammed on some chords. The chords happen to be the same as (or similar to) those in Jimi Hendrix's Hey Joe. We just chose them randomly as a basis for experimentation with different voicings.
Anyway, got home and…
more tabla/club music. this one needs some melodic work, perhaps some more instrument layering, more chord progressions... anyhow, should be enjoyable enough for now.
Oh man, love this. Especially the second part (~1:45 - 3:30) which has great "movement". I'm sure there is a musicy word for it but I don't know it. I do know this is brilliant though. Encore!
Worked on this track at the end of January.. Then the RPM came and it did not fit with the other tunes... so I decided to get off my behind and upload it for you all to enjoy. Takes place at the zoo,
the plot is, of course, two chimps in love...
i call it miramar after the naguib mahfouz novel which i was reading at the time, just like in the book all the characters meet in the middle for the umm kulthum concert

Very nice - glad you're back to making music. I'm also a big fan of Permut8, but was unaware of Boscomac's page; thanks for including that info.
Liking the underpinning energy.
this sounds positively haunted. really digging it.
Psychotic mermaids. Everywhere. Not for the aquatic paranoid.

what a unique idea! Thank you for this great aural experience!
This is awesome. I'm transported to a quiet but alarming place. Very cool.
Dig this
A fabulous compilation of sounds, dark colors, bitter flavors, a caress of eeriness. Love it!
This is amazing in my denon's
Works for me! Love it -- Rock on!
Ah we had some fun. :)
This just came up in my itunes shuffle play and I was all "damn, like this, what is it?" a little digging and I found myself here :)
Traffic jam clowns!
Touché Igor :)
...then I, without special reason, descended into the abyss of black of bass. Will I find there what you need? Or, on the way, I lost myself?
Dig! Love it! Very groovy!
Rediscovering... very cool.
Very nice work, I love the way the ambience flows. Also the Reaktor ensemble looks like a nice piece of programming.
cool trip we have here

All kinds of fabulous sonic shapes in here, another great track!

Love the feel of this one.
Okay that was awesomely weird! Kudos :)
Fun experiment.
Great beat.

Love it.
Love it. How do you consistently come up with this much great music? Those little Glubots must be working double-overtime!
This track makes me a Happy Machine :)
Love the sounds you've used here.
Okay I mightn't have expected 43m of fan noise to be quite this cool but it is!
