Uncanny Lobby is the 3rd track from my ep Adventures In Atlantis DLC. This project was part of a cross-disciplinary collaboration with Leftist Legume. They wrote a short science fiction story which was handed to me as it was being drafted and I created a soundscape to represent the narrative as it emerged.

You can read the full story here: https://www.decentralizeddossiers.com/post/virtual-beach-resort

The full Adventures In Atlantis DLC ep is available from Vacuum Noise Records: https://vacuumnoiserecords.bandcamp.com/album/adventures-in-atlantis-dlc

Thanks to Misha Boseby for adding some much needed extra sizzle to the cover art/design.

Uncanny Lobby (from Adventures In Atlantis DLC out on Vacuum Noise Records)

The eighth track from my Adventures in Atlantis DLC ep release, it started out as a drum loop that I cut out of a Ministry song that is now so buried under layers of glorious noise that it has almost completely disappeared from view.

Rage Quitting Utopia (No Safe Place Left)

This track is featured on the amazing Vacuum Noise Records Autumn compilation alongside a whole host of other amazing internet music artists!!

https://vacuumnoiserecords.bandcamp.com/album/autumn-compilation

This collaboration was born after VDMR and I connected through he September Headless Blood Idol livestream event. They sent me a folder with a few tracks they'd been working - this amazing mix of insane autotune/vocoder vocals, brutal rhythms and thick slabs of droning blackened droning noise - that was absolutely unique.

Using the stems for one of these tracks as the source material I pulled everything apart and treated each piece of sound like a completely malleble sample. I brought VDMR's sounds into a blank slate project and began twisting and teasing everything into a completely new mutant structure. The result sounds completely unique from the original track and unlike anything I have made before. 

I love this so much!!!

VDMR & doktorb  - Upper! Downer! (Relapse Ad Infinitum)

This is my remix for TPC's NAPKIN 7 ep. Every remix included in this project is freaking genius and you should definitely check out the whole project!!

Thickly Painted Closet - dedicated To Adorno (doktorb's Ctheory2YTP Pipeline mix)

This track was created to help celebrate the 5th Birthday of one of my favourite net labels, Space Anemone. It was created out of a loops I sampled out of Micheal Jackson meme videos where songs had been attuned so every note was C producing a deliciously uncanny effect.

This is an old track that was released all the way back in 2019 to inaugurate the wonderful Engram Records. I hadn't posted this before because they'd originally uploaded the track up on their SC when the release came out. Anyways, now that there is enough water under that bridge I wanted to have a copy of it up here because I am extremely proud of this track!!

The Happiness Cage

Konnektiv Hellscaep

This is probably my favourite track I have ever made and it has been sitting on my hard drive for far too long. It might become part of an album project that I have had kicking around which is intended as a follow-up for ultimate cringe compilation but at this stage I am not entirely sure. In any case here it is for you to all enjoy. I hope you like it (whoever you are :))

This track was taken from the Pause and Reflect Vol. 1 Compilation which you can find here:

dream threads

This two track ep. was created for issue one of the Brazilian mail art project entitled Revista Postal de Arte or REPOAR. These tracks were frankensteined together out of collage experients I conducted over the first year of creating sets for the Headless Blood Idol Community Group Show livestreams.

blurstNRG

ur NRG dont lie

After making a completed album playlist for blurstNRG it occurred to me that I should make use of the fact that I've decided to take out a pro subscription (wisely, or otherwise) by posting full versions of my albums here. Although i am going to serialise the uploads a track at a time not to inundate people's feeds.

In any case, I always regretted not uploading every track from ultimate cringe compilation because this album was such a milestone for me creatively. And, in many ways, it's a pre-cursor to blurstNRG which would never have came to be had I not done this first.

In any case, here is track four.

And for anyone who hears this and feels inspired to purchase the whole thing. You can find it here:

we're really at the end of the ultimate cringe compilation (7/8) and i that you'v learned, as the meme goes, that the real cringe was the friends you made along the way :)

brittle drumz wage warrrr

This is the first finished draft from an album I am working on called 'enough'. I've decided to upload everything that I create for this project as I finish it to keep me honest about keeping on keeping on.

It's been a hell of a time recently and enough is about what that means (for me and anyone else caught up in this shit).

So what is enough?

Do I have enough? Or have had enough? (Am I willing to tap the mat and yell uncle?) Or, if I'll stubbornly keep stumbling along, refusing to give in, then how can I become the version of enough that my life and the people in it need me to be?

Have you had enough of inane questions? I have...

And, I don't know any answers anyway, so i hide in front of my computer chopping samples together into weird little sketches, all the time hoping that the answers will be transmit to me through the sounds that claw their way out from my Audacity projects.

No such luck (yet) so I gots to keep on chopping.

on Escape

in this house the violence of you is the air that we breath. an ambient condition or aggressive non-presence that supercharges the moment, like trying to keep calm in a room decorated with DayGlo wall paper and lit by 5000k light bulbs. this uncomfortable nothingness burns my likeness into your retinas and stains my memories of you. make no mistake, it hurts to spend time here, like being buried alive under the weight of all those unmet expectations i tried and failed to live up to.

the violence of you

this track is the answer to a zen koan that no one is asking. it is the sound of an army of dead cats bouncing. if you've ever wondered what an army of dead cats bouncing sounds like, well... now you know (de nada). this track was *supposed* to sound like a lil ugly mane instrumental but alas, it does not. then again does lil ugly mane even sound like lil ugly mane? i mean, each of his albums is so distinct it's almost as if they were made by completely different people. i don't have this problem. in my case, i open up audacity hoping to do something profoundly different and it all comes up 100% doktorb. so here, have another doktorb, it's on the house (me)
