I made this track in one take on my ipad on January 7th, 2021.

Ramped Yearning

I made this track on my ipad in 2019.  It was put together to show a girl I had a big crush on back then what techniques I was utilizing at the time in my pursuit of making “noise music”. 

Long story short, she ended up getting back with her ex bf after we went on a few incredible dates.  Instead of abandoning the track, I focused the angst and gushing disappointment I felt into the slewing,  explosive violence you hear on this track.

On 9/11/23 I put two different versions of the original file through dynamic effect processing on my iphone in an effort to clear some old cobwebs.

i made this for you

A melody I wrote to an eight bar progression that was assigned to me by my piano teacher.  I may work on this song further, and if so, this is the rough draft for the final product.

This is a granular collage of a months worth of field recordings and random synth blips.

This is FEAR ROD playing live at the September Cleveland Noise Lunch, which was themed "Music For Plants".    Next to no post processing was used.

Music For Plants

Part of a jam session between my dear friend Alex F. and I, slowed way down, drenched in reverb that's being sent to other reverbs.

Flippy B. John

Spring cleaning.  I was pruning old presets and recordings on my iPad and came across a lone file entitled “Ch 6 - 62.6”.

Channel 6626

This is an edited jam session between NE Ohio noise artists Figure With Meat and Fear Rod that took place sometime around November 10th 2018.
The setting for this session was an overly cramped, musty basement that's filled to to the brim with the possessions of deceased family members.  
The initial plan was to release this on cassette tape, but that plan was dropped soon after recording.

Try your best to grit your teeth through the boring parts, there's some really neat timbres and rewarding sections.  
Please listen as loudly as you can
Enjoy
