Sword Fight (Free Download)

This week, it is almost like physical therapy. I pulled a muscle in my back, and have been nursing that back to feeling OK. DJing really should be considered an aerobic activity, as you use your back more than you would think.....

Regardless, it was a bit of a struggle, but here's the session. Enjoy this sessions grooves and beats!

[PREMIERE] Druum - Purple Haze

Just messing around with a Moog Subharmonicon, Syntakt, and Digitakt 2. Lots to learn still and this is just a raw live recording using the Tascam Model 12 then an import and real-time export through bitwig. Interesting I was able to actually able to mess up the beat matching even using midi clock. Again, lots to learn.

SaturdaySessions#1 - DAD - Moog/Elektron

Happy 4th Of July!

Had a play with the Moog Sound Studio 3 this evening. Just making noises hoping to get some good sounds or patterns. Mother-32, Sub-Harmonicon, DFAM. Recorded using the Zoom L6 recording directly from the microSD. There are some good spots. Enjoy.

Sound Studio Noise Sessions #1

went to the woods by myself and set up shop and dropped it for all the beautiful souls we have lost through the years. Probably looked like a mad man throwing down a mix all alone in the middle of the woods.

{SlackeR}Shoeless The Divide

After his acclaimed binary star-studded album Technicolor Dreamer and its epic intergalactic remixes, Scott Hardkiss introduces a new collaboration through his God Within label. It’s with buzzing Brooklyn-based indie-rock band The Veda Rays, an artsy, psychedelic noise pop quartet that, like Scott, are aiming far beyond this solar system. 

Scott originally bonded with the band’s drummer, engineer and mixer Jason Gates who, as a “brother in rhythm” also fascinated with music technology both archaic and futuristic, was enlisted to work on Technicolor Dreamer. The pairing flourished and as Jason formed his own Veda Rays project Scott became eager to get involved. “All Your Pretty Fates,” the lead track from The Veda Rays’ debut Gamma Rays Galaxy Rays Veda Rays, was chosen as the cut to get the full-on Scott Hardkiss treatment. Scott’s acumen at adding tasteful electronic beats and spaciness to rock n’ roll originals is well known through his past remixes for the likes of The Flaming Lips, Dean & Britta, Primal Scream, and even Elton John. The Veda Rays happily submitted to this treatment and the result is a hypnotic groover that showcases the band’s sublime vocals (courtesy of lead-singer James Stark) and instrumentation alongside Scott’s cutting-edge beats, arrangement and synthesized whiz-bang. 

The remix, found here in Vocal, Instrumental and Acapella versions, is a dreamy, Balearic, indie-dance delight guaranteed to mesmerize any interplanetary rave-up or cosmic disco. As an added bonus, Q-Burns Abstract Message saunters in from his Eighth Dimension to unveil a stunning Re-Edit of Scott’s mix that steps on the cosmic gas pedal for even more shimmery shoegaze-tronica. Beautiful, emotive stuff here, and a harbinger of both future excellence from rising stars The Veda Rays and another installment in imaginative, musical dance-fusions from Scott Hardkiss.
