Back to Sound Forge full time with this one. Hadn't felt as inspired as this in years. Usually tracks take a few weeks min, but in one night I made 3 ambient/free form tracks. This one is almost borderline drum and bass and is my favorite. It didn't come out until nearly two years after the first two came out.

[XIZM011] Nic TVG - Transparent Lines 2008

I could feel the minimal movement coming, but not quite sure how. I think most people didn't even realize this one is at 170 with snares on the 2nd downbeat. A little loose to mix with and track titles getting a bit out of control.

[PCMS004] TVG Hates TVG - Sleepwalking with That Girl Drinking Paint Thinner 2008

Fada has some amazing tracks out on Materializm so check them out. This remix is quarter-step style.

[XIZM009] Fada - Laid Back Style Placement (Nic TVG Remix) 2009

The original intro used these lo-fi bells but the rest of the release was rather clean so built this quick ending out of them instead.

[PCMSEX002] Nic TVG - Mess (2140 Sample Rate Version) 2009

[PCMSEX002] Nic TVG - Mess 2009

Was feeling inspired by the J Tek labels as it reminded me of the Space 2 Pace project.

[PCMSEX002] Nic TVG - Molly's Playing Dumb 2009

At the point I knew I wanted to ditch the TVG Hates TVG moniker. You might be one of the lucky five who picked this one up under the name Nic before I stuck the 'TVG' back in.
Eschaton has remixed this track beautifully. Check it out on Pinecone Moonshine.

[PCMSEX002] Nic TVG - Amelia's Guitar 2008

Last of the TVG Hates TVG tracks. Golden Age approached me to make a throw-back type track. I wanted to do late 90s Reinforced mixed with the glitch sounds I was trying at the time. Mix down was a bit wack, so if I have the original files I'll probably rework this one.

[GA000] TVG Hates TVG - The House that Sandpaper Built 2009

Written for a breakcore competition. I knew it was more Drum Funk and wasn't too surprised when it didn't make it. Turned out great to balance She Looks for Ghosts though.

[PCMSNT001] Nic TVG - Who Took My Screen Door? 2009

Tim from Materializm recommended I add more pads which filled this track out making it one of my favorite remixes.

[PCMSNT001] Nic TVG ft Kodo - A Regressive Remix 2009

Part of The Next Generation EP. Star Trek reference perhaps?

[SWD010] Nic TVG - No Truth in Tuning 2009

Playing with convolution to recreate a Paul stretch effect. (Used samples from No Truth in Tuning and She Looks for Ghosts.)

[PCMSNT001] Nic TVG - Time Waits Until Plants Wake 2010

How do I solve not wanting PCMS to focus on my material alone? Start another catalogue series.

[PCMSNT001] Nic TVG - She Looks for Ghosts 2010

I've been producing since 2002. Except for a couple years off to make mainly noise projects, I have focused on Drum Funk and Ambient music.
Since 2008, I have only used Sound Forge and almost exclusively sample vinyl.
This page catalogues the material that is currently available. Much of it is download, but if you purchase something that money goes right back into future projects.
Much of my music is available through the label Pinecone Moonshine (www.pineconemoonshine.com).
Feel free to send me a message. :)
- Nic
All my music post 2006 is mastered by Macc at Subvert Central Mastering.
