THESE SONGS I laid down first take, I'm just going to crank them out and see what happens, soon to perform with an ensemble. Feel free to contact me if you are a performer or expirimental instrument builder. I'm looking to get ahold of some vibraphones soon.
a new found freedom:
lo-tec tribal:
no effects added, echos are from empty rooms. voices half step up and down to phase. smacking paper tubes. resident noise, overtones. loosely tuned drums w/ loose bolts hanging off the sides vibrating other drums.... incorporating visitor noises such as... a singing dog named Tucker!
"I certainly had no feeling for harmony, and Schoenberg thought that that would make it impossible for me to write music. He said, 'You'll come to a wall you won't be able to get through.' So I said, 'I'll beat my head against that wall.' " --John Cage
Don't know if you heard about our promotion for mixing and mastering one of your songs for free, but I just wanted to give you a heads up. No strings, I just want to show what I could do for you. You'd be surprised what the right pair of ears can do. Click here for more info. Be in touch!
