first outing for my "groove" case https://modulargrid.net/e/racks/view/2430896

After quite a long hiatus this year - mostly just lack of time in which to make music sadly - back to exploring the groove as a concept.

And The Circle And The Tree

I create original experiential music from NOSIGNAL Multimedia Lab in Chicago. The Hard Times described my music as "creepy, haunted, but also a little bit uplifting." Prolific.

THIS IS OUR 2ND ACCOUNT.  ▼ This music project is 100% non-profit and is only created for experimentation purposes ▼
▲ Humanfobia is a dark experimental music duo inspired on nightmares, paranormal and horror movies. From Rancagua, Chile. members: Mist Spectra [Visual Support & Female Vocals] // and Sábila Orbe [Sound Programmer, Mixer & Male Vocals] ▲

Since moving to Dumfries and Galloway Taylor has  been focussed on improvisation, software based modular and iPad performance tools. Typically resulting in ambient and generative sound design. He is part of Sonic Labs, an improvisation group based at The Stove, Dumfries.

Taylor Nuttall is a composer, artist and sound designer. Seeking to avoid specific genres, his work is often a hybrid of influences that  incorporates found sounds and seemingly disparate though often very personal content. The environment, sustainability and climate change are a constant underlying thematic.

‘Is This Just One Day’, a 30 minute evocative soundscape was produced after winning a commission for the Sounds of Silence program by Aerial Festival, launched in September 2020. Taylor has been involved in a number of collaborative projects most recently working with artist and curator Dominic Smith to produce ‘Triangulation’ an EP released by Etched Traumas in August 2021.

After working extensively in the arts for many years leading multimedia arts organisation Folly and as a founding director of Abandon Normal Devices Festival, Taylor is currently a board member for Full of Noises, a sound art and new music organisation based in a public park on Cumbria’s Furness Peninsula.

Having recently moved from the Lake District to Dumfries and Galloway Taylor Nuttall lives on a small holding near Castle Douglas with a small flock of sheep. 

Taylor Nuttall trained as a visual artist and has an early exhibition career with artworks featuring painting, print, sculpture, photography and installation. In the late 80’s and early 90’s he began to explore the potential of creativity using computer technologies. As well as exhibiting these works in traditional gallery spaces this led to a number of pieces being designed to be experienced online as virtual artworks. These virtual artworks also began to explore the use of sound. Taylor is now working with sound, drawing upon composition and musical skills he learned from playing piano and classical guitar as well as re-learning more robustly about sound design, composition and music theory.

I love listening to music. I love making music 

I love technology, but only as a means to an end when it comes to music making. 

I'm after music that has life not music that is perfectly constructed 

Here is my music
