From six years ago, here's my feeble attempt at recreating a minimalist classic using an EHX Stereo Memory Man. Just posting here so it can be linked in an FB comment.

Cobbled together from four short field recordings made at the shores of Lake Ontario on the east side of Toronto. Some were reversed, one pitch shifted, and all were stretched. The title is a modification of Claude Vivier's great work Pulau Dewata…

Created using feedback between a landline and mobile phone placed in close proximity. No post-processing apart from fade in/out and normalization. Submitted to Sound-In for 15-18/8/2019.

Tin whistle and multiple effects. Submitted to Sound-In for Aug. 7-10, 2019.

Tin whistle through a variety of effects. Submission to Sound-In for 7-10/8/2019.

Five different channels of affected sound via Lexicon LXP-5, Zoom RFX-300, and EHX Stereo Memory Man. Original sound was created by a short length of wound guitar string on a relatively flat and slightly rusty piece of sheet metal. Mixed via an…

The theme this week at Sound-In was, naturally, the 50th anniversary of the first manned moon landing. I decided to try a first of my own; cover the bell of my tenor sax with a foil pie plate to see how the sound and response might be changed…

After recording S&F&TR, I thought I'd try to play a bit differently to the frogs, more of a 'human' style. They seemed to get considerably more noisy so I recorded this. Submitted to Sound-in for 10-13/7/2019.

Took a walk up to the local creek to try playing with some late-night bullfrogs (about 10pm). Kept to just playing short bursts, as arhythmically as possible. Submitted to Sound-in for 10-13/7/2019.

Tenor sax, solo. Submitted to Sound-In for 3-6/7/2019.

An attempt at imitating the sounds of a basketball game using tenor sax, in honour of Toronto's victory in the NBA (now IBA?) championship series. Squeaking of shoes, bouncing of ball, occasional crowd cheers (least successful).

Solo tenor sax. A comment on the return to relatively warm temperatures here in the Toronto area. Submitted to Sound-In for 12-15/6/2019

Half dozen wooden sticks from an old rocking chair being rattled together. Submitted to Sound-In for 5-8/6/2019.

Another stretched segment, this time without any noise reduction or pitch change, but with a much finer resolution. The resemblance to a super-fast steam locomotive gave the title. Submitted to Sound-In for 29/5-1/6/2019.

Created from a few seconds of sound caused by three FM radios interfering with each other. Stretching, pitch-shifting and noise reduction gave this result. Submitted to Sound-In 29/5-1/6/2019.
