Pertinent Waves

New Old World

Close your eyes, chill out and relax with MOD. Listen to the oscillators working their magic.

It started simply enough. I was just looking to put down some quick beats and a bass line to improvise over. It turns out the two-part formula (first Dm and G, then Dm and C) is incredibly easy to riff over. And I couldn't stop. I kept adding more and more parts. The result is a completely gratuitous, self-indulgent, vintage synth overload. Of course the first solo is a Jupiter-8, followed by JX-8P, along with some heavy lifting from Junos 60 and 106, and a manic SH-101 riff, not to mention the driving arpeggiations (and quick solo) from a Prophet 6. The track is seven minutes long, but you can believe that the "jam sessions" leading up to recording went for days at a time.

Miles 2 Go

Live performance of the song Hidden Alley on the podcast Crunchy Something. The episode of the podcast featuring the performance will begin streaming later in June 2025.

Elixir

I have used this track many times as background music for various video or podcast projects that I have done. Usually those adventures involve me wandering off and/or exploring some area previously unknown to me. The simplicity of the sound -- a Juno 106 doing nearly all the work -- has always appealed to me.

Mapless

Good track for meditation, zoning out... finding zen. I updated the original recording, with a little remixing, remastering.

Mist 25

Remix of Fill the Space. Love the Moog baseline, the distorted trippy synths... Fun song to kind of zone out with.

Filling Space

This is an updated remix/remaster of Spiked Vanilla. Lyrically, the song is basically about people who try too hard to be "cool".

Lyrics:
Off-white paint, coating the walls
And it's smelling like more spiked vanilla 

Vanilla Scoop

This is an updated, remixed version of Pariah. When I went back into the original files, I saw that I initially planned to title the song Outsider. So that was the choice this time around. It's a heavy sound, definitely influenced by all the years of listening to prog rock.
