The Nose Fairy

Korg drum machine mixed via Kaos pad with overdubbed solo guitar improvisation using oscillating fuzz box.

What is that supposed to mean

Written almost 10 years ago on my daughter's birthday. Intentional major/minor interplay to reflect the happy/sad feeling of the passing of time. She was a little girl when I started this recording series, and now she's a young adult. I am so proud of her and all she's accomplished. Time flies.

Lorber Gets a Lesson (in glitch and stutter)

Gary Bock is a Western New York area guitarist. Since the late 70's he has played solo and in a wide variety of groups performing rock, progressive, jazz fusion, experimental and improvisational genres. 

In the 80's Gary continued to study his craft with guitarist Chad McLoughlin in Ithaca, N.Y. Chad has worked with such notable musicians as David Torn, Mike Stern, and David Sancious (among many others) and was the guitarist for the Mahavishnu Project.

In the late 80's Gary formed the band Art In Transit, who recorded the album 'Where to Now' on the One-Eyed Records label. In the mid 90's he performed and recorded with the experimental/improvisational group Quintet, who later morphed into the band Gazeuse. Gazeuse recorded the abrasive and edgy experimental/improvisational album 'Pet Anxieties'. The album was released globally on the Humble Lion Music label.  
 
Since Y2K, Gary has been performing, recording and involved with various group and solo projects. In 2006 his band Random Order independently released an album of original progressive rock material. Random Order continues to perform in the Western New York area, occasionally dedicating entire shows to the music of 70's era King Crimson. Haarm, an improvisational side project of Gazeuse, conceived in the 90's by Gary, released a self-titled ep available on Bandcamp.   

Gary's latest projects include an improvisational recording and performing collaboration with keyboard wizard Jeff Fineberg called Admin Zero (also available on Bandcamp), as well as a solo project called A Seasonal Ghost, which you can hear samples of on this site, among other tid-bits of joy.
