Backward Through Time

To live and die in a small Austrian town I once drove through on a bus

Please Touch

Joy of the Worm

A second track featuring short-wave radio transmissions, this one seemingly bouncing off the ionosphere from somewhere in Japan. At least it sounds like Japanese to me. The synths are the IK Uno Synth Pro and the Korg Volca Modular.

Phantom Oscillator - Transmission No.2

LYRICS:
-------------------------------------------------------
The flashing light is indicating error, error
A wave of fear, a rumbling of terror, terror
Push the button, summon the repairer, repairer
The technician!

Arriving on the scene
Resequencing the gene
Talking to the machine
With a list of simple rules
And a tidy bag of tools
Who will save the helpless fools?
Who will save them? Who will save them?
The technician.

As the only unit who is fit to, fit to
The technician has identified the issue, issue
The virus is in the soft tissue, tissue
The technician!

There’s a bump in the road
There’s a bug in the code
A system overload
There’s a fly in the soup
A redirection loop
There’s a dupe within the group
Who will save them, who will save them?
The technician.

The mechanical voice repeating warning, warning
The broken beings all aborning, ‘borning
This cannot wait until the morning, morning
The technician!

With a flinging of the dung
And a twisting of the tongue
The ladder skips a rung
The clock has slipped a gear
With the deadline drawing near
Have no worries, know no fear
Who will save us? WHO WILL SAVE US?
The technician.

Shielded Reasons

Natural Phases

Changes may be subtle compared to the WIP posting but wanted to be able to sleep at night!

Feathers and Flowers

Connections

One of the plays from the Buendiana cycle, based on the plots and images of the novel "One Hundred Years of Solitude" by Gabriel García Márquez.

«El brillo mágico del pez dorado del coronel Buendía». Op.16-02. (1983)

Atonement

a brief live improv on the haken continuum

timbral planes

This was a fully improvised live gig using only Buchla modules and thrid-party Buchla modules.  No keyboard, no controllers, no samples, no computer, no iPad, no pre-recorded playback. . . just knob twiddling going into a RC-20 looper and then an Eventide Space reverb. This is a direct recording from the mixer.  You can see the archived streaming of this gig here: https://youtu.be/2-GgM3RhvjY
