Feeling down about the fires in LA. Made this rather emotive IDM thing for todays Jamnuary. For those interested I made heavy use of this Max for Live note splitter device to send notes randomly to 3 destination synths. Makes for an interesting composition strategy: https://maxforlive.com/library/device/4849/midi-note-splitter

Kids Menu (“Normal” Bio):
EarthCry is Anthony Thogmartin’s solo music, serving as an outlet for his more electronic musical ideas, as well as a place to try experimental genre mashing, developmental frequency blending, and odd instrument combinations. Staying true to live roots, an EarthCry show can consist of any combination of live instruments, mixing, slicing, looping, and cutting overtop of arrangements that come out differently every time. All the while, electronic controls are always facing the crowd to encourage a deeper experience of interaction. His most recent release “Sun Path” “…emerges as an album meant for this moment. A soundtrack for the collective consciousness of today’s higher-level thinkers, intent on assimilating all of the old to push forth the new.” – Lost in Sound. Other notable musical outputs have been his debut album "Hear the Earth, Heal Yourself, Heal the Earth, Hear Yourself", a voyage into 6 solfeggio tones. He has also released 2 "Mother’s Mashups" which are combinations of 2 songs that mysteriously fit together in fun ways. As a beneficial operation, EarthCry also donates earnings to different ecological initiatives around the world.

Philbo Schwaggins has been a resident of the North Central Texas Plains bioregion since 1989. From early on they enjoyed being outside and enjoying the abundance of nature. Academically, they earned a Bachelors of Science in Psychology with a minor in Horticulture. They proudly achieved the distinction of “grad school dropout” after deciding not to complete a Masters of Science Degree in the interdisciplinary field of Sustainability, focusing on regenerative agriculture, environmental ethics, and people’s relationship to the natural world. In addition to working and learning about fungi, plants and people, Philbo also enjoys playing music, exploring inner- and outer spaces!!!

Since early childhood, Philbo has been making music. They’ve been doing it so long, it’s surprising they’re not better. However, making art is not solely about perfecting technical skill, it's about an interplay between creator and observer. If it sounds good, roll with it. Though Philbo enjoys many genres of music, their solo production and performance has largely been electronic dance music and DJing wild parties of rebellion and liberation.

I'm from Pennsylvania & I enjoy rapping in the studio!!
