Brilliant track - love the concept, the history it touches on, and the atmosphere created.

Revelatory piece. I'm here for all of this, the structure, commitment to form, and the story telling. Excellent start to end. Spirit Radios 4EVR!

Oh oh oh, I love that deep click. Instant love.

The static within and around the voice makes this particularly haunting.

It has to be magic... An overhwhelming track.

Dark Continent is the last of the tracks from my world percussion album "Skin & Wisdom" to be posted on Soundcloud.
The final destination of this global drum journey is Africa.
Thank you to all that have liked, commented, and reposted any these tracks from the album. This was a joy to create, and I hope these tracks have given you a sense of adventure and worldly travels.

Now that I have released 2 full albums of world percussion, it will be a LONG TIME before I return to this genre.

Always more explorations and different moods of sound to come!

Mood Exhibit - Dark Continent

Some months ago I was heading to the doctor’s when I heard a voice say “notice the tattoo,” or “ look at the tattoo,” something along those lines, which left me pretty baffled, unsure what this meant or why it suddenly popped into my head. But I made sure I would pay attention to any tattoos I saw at the doctor’s office. When I got there a young nurse admitted me and checked my vitals. She was pretty and had a calming grace about her. When she went to take my blood pressure, I saw on the inside of her wrist was a single tattoo: a red rose. Throughout the day I contemplated what this symbol was meant to mean and why I was supposed to see it but couldn’t really make any connection to it. 
Around this time I had started learning more about the saints. I was reading a book of poetry by St. Thérèse of Lisieux “the Little Flower” that I really loved. In it are the most tender of love poems dedicated to Jesus, other saints and her fellow sisters at her convent. 
But it wasn’t until a couple of days ago I found the novena prayer to St. Thérèse and was shocked and tickled to discover it is apparently common knowledge that she’ll send a rose to those who ask for her prayers. 
Now I can’t remember if I had, at that time, asked, but maybe she went ahead and sent the rose knowing I would catch up down the line. Either way, this beautiful haiku by El Wud evoked in me this memory and the desire to repay her kind gift.

So dear St. Thérèse of Lisieux, this one’s dedicated to you:


Curve of time—
a thought takes flight,
scent of a rose.

A Rose from St. Thérèse [naviarhaiku 577]

Disquiet Junto prompt 0683 instructed us to make a piece of music that is half in space and half not in space.

Radio waves travel at the speed of light, and when the first radio transmission crossed the Atlantic it was said that distance had been abolished. Without distance, there's no space. So half of the song is a story that takes place on a radio, and is about a radio, and was performed in part on a radio, removed from place and space.

There are no synthesizers or synthetic samples in this piece. Instrumentation was a heavily processed guitar played with ebow, a Schechter Damien 7-string guitar, shortwave radio, shoebox cassette recorder, and field recordings. The radio noises and vocal parts are removed from space through a custom convolution reverb I created using a spike of low-frequency AM noise as an impulse response, essentially placing the sounds in the ionosphere.

The story I tell in the song is true.

Naviar haiku challenge 578: details here: https://www.naviarrecords.com/haiku-music-challenge

With the exception of the gongs, a combination of a modified Dreamsynth bell preset and Gong Amp, everything was made with one monster virtual modular patch using VCV Rack (Mostly Surge XT modules). 

Probably not the best way to do it, I should have learned from how easy it was splitting things last week, but everything including the gongs was multi-track recorded as a single live performance. Apart from pushing my far from shabby CPU to it's limit I wasn't able to modulate as many things as I'd have liked, ran into the not enough physical knobs/sliders limit.  ,

Picnic in the Park  - Watch my video short! https://youtu.be/Z90D8qLSHjY?si=9lbkSdG-aeu_zr4H

A glorious day 
For a Picnic in the Park
Birds are chirping, 
Swans are swimming
Children laughing, 
The sun is grinning.
On a blanket of grass, 
We lay 
Side by side, 
Savoring each taste
Of food, drink, 
A kiss, 
On this lovely day.

Picnic in the Park

the idea of northern

griefing

I create original experimental, postpunk, and experiential music from my studio in Chicago. The Hard Times described my work as "creepy, haunted, but also a little bit uplifting." Prolific.
