Unreleased outtake from a forthcoming vinyl release

Let us Pkay

This is an oddity. Made by running pop music on the radio through a Hordijk Modular synthesiser. What is sense anyway?

Wisdom And Nonsense

Observable Anxieties

Today's offering is modest shifting groove study made with the Hordijk Modular

Another excerpt from a 90-minute radio broadcast for eatthisradio of real time free improvisations made on a modular synthesiser. No sequencing, no second takes, no subsequent editing or mixing, it is as completely raw as if it came from the instrument. The full show can be found here:

"For this very special edition, Richard Scott kindly provided us with a series of early morning compositions. Basically these are free works he makes while waking up. However, don't be fooled by the setting or the 'fleetingness' of these recordings; they are way more sophisticated than mere 'doodles'. Nevertheless Richard's recordings stay playful throughout these sessions. There is some free exploration of the instruments he works with but Richard never loses his sense of composition and aesthetic quality in this 1.5 hour collection."

Live in Legnica

A nearly-eleven minute piece entirely made up of simple modulations of a single musical gesture, realised on a Hordijk Modular synthesiser. Some kind of mildly threatening ambient music I suppose, or maybe not.

Face The Day

The mysterious Gibber machine meets some randy Brandenberg frogs and a failing old drum box in a loooong electrofunk dirge. Dedicated to Chris Watson, Stephen Mallinder and Richard H. Kirk
