Portland, Oregon-based composer Daryl Groetsch’s output under the name Pulse Emitter forms a catalog of nearly one hundred physical releases since the early ‘00s. The full scope of his wide-ranging experiments in synthesis and electronic arrangement encompasses everything from expansive new age drift exercises, to purely textural noise sculpting, to post-Berlin School cybernetic prog compositions. Pulse Emitter approaches electronic composition from the perspective of a master craftsman, harnessing a fine-tuned sense of narrative development and a penchant for juxtaposing contrasting synth voices from far-flung corners of his arsenal of softsynths, app-based programs, and hardware instruments. While he conjures time-lapse vistas of galaxies and nebulas in our mind’s eye, the sophistication of his arrangements and the universal beauty of his harmonies pushes the lens inward on the self, resulting in a journey that is as personal and internal as it is celestial.

Huge fan of all things hauntology and pretty much anything on the Ghost Box Records label. I make my tracks up as I go along, using a combination of free sound samples and any other sounds I think might sound weird once good old Paul has Stretched them beyond all recognition. I can't play or read music, and the only instrument I own is a gob iron, and I can't play that. All my efforts are produced solely with Audacity and sound samples.

I have more than twenty years experience in a diverse musicologist approach to music creation and mixing. I also provide recording services to non-profits and volunteer organizations such as AA and community groups. 

You may also find a collection of natural ambient recordings from the colorful sounds of nature afforded me here in southern Louisiana which has some of best rain and thunderstorm material (and floods unfortunately). 

Aside from collecting and playing with analog synthesizers, Many moons ago I did put out a sample CD called Electro Crash Vol 12 for M-Audio Pro-Sessions (now out of print). 
 
Music creation influences are mainly analog sequencer and electro type music although I like to work on ambient, 70's electronic, space music, minimal, breakbeat, hardcore, acid-techno, drum and bass and most recently an interest in meshing ambient with dubstep and electro. 

I prefer to program all of my own beats and program all my synth sounds rather than use loops and presets (but will use loops if the situation requires it). So doing extensive complicated music for me is sometimes not possible, so my pieces are generally short and minimal in approach.

The picture in my bio is of a kitten I rescued when I lived in my apartment in Los Angeles in the 00's. The keyboard is a PAIA 2700, I still have it. Yes that's a scandinavian wood chair on my dining room table. I no longer have the kitty with me, he is remembered by this photo. He escaped one night and I never saw him again.
