Tibetan money's scary [Ankhtifi reworked]

P a b l o presented me this ambient drone titled "lost souls" for me to experiment on. In Belgium we're facing our third covid lockdown in one year. Help organizations worldwide are reporting alarming numbers of domestic violence and abuse due to lockdown. Lost Souls immediately became Trapped Souls in my head. I tried to evoke such disturbing situations through sound. It was an emotional rollercoaster. Anyhow, this is the result.

Random Spirits

Loop based track with live improvisation

Lament 4 D

somewhat out of my comfort zone but great fun to do. 
Listening in stereo is recommended, in mono if you like it straight up without the whoosh ;)

Holy Shitshow - Heavenly Water - open collab [Gruppo Infernal version]

In loving memory of Domenico a.k.a. Domenicko – Blissphemy - Arle Quinn 
Many years ago I recorded Domenico's voice - just one verse and chorus he'd written. My experiments back then didn't match and we forgot about it. Covid-19 took away our chance to work together again. I decided to finish the song in his honor. No experiments this time but a ballad, like he would have wanted. On 23/4/2022 Domenico's friends gathered to commemorate him with music, dance and laughter and I was asked to perform the song on stage with Mark Zark on guitar and Emsie Phreddie on bass and, of course, Domenico's voice. We stretched the time between the verses and at the end switched to a largely improvised up-tempo beat so the DJs could take over and get the party going. 
Recorded with a phone by someone in the audience, so don't expect too much. 
And yes, it's something completely different than my other stuff, but I like to think he would have loved this. For you, D

And now for something completely different...

On A Sunny Day

Native

Five-O'clock Fever

Lust

Niksen is a Dutch/Flemish expression for the art of doing nothing. A deliberate act of setting aside structured tasks and embracing stillness. To be stripped of excess and distraction. Mind wandering isn't aimless—it's a mental playground where ideas grow and imagination thrives. Doing nothing isn't lazy; it's an essential pause, a breath in the rhythm of life. It’s where inspiration whispers and the chaos of the world recedes.

Niksen

Echoes in Distortion: a tribute to the sonic rebels forged in the crackling hum of amps and chaotic rhythms, this song aspires to channel the groundbreaking boldness of early Cabaret Voltaire, the relentless energy of Black Tish, and the brainsickness of The Butthole Surfers. Melodic but unruly, unraveling yet structured—it twists and bends, paying homage to the underground architects who aimed to reshape sound itself.

Noxpox RL1 [ Gruppo Infernal version ]

This interview really smacked me in the face. I really felt sympathetic to this guy who' s obviously oblivious about the situation. Tried to put me in his shoes and it felt like pure noise. So i tried to emulate the effect of this interview on his state of mind using sound. 
This track is the first born from Me, my Thumb and Jack with UnterPitch and Bleached Coffins. Got tired of determining whether it was a MMTJ track ft. UnterPitch or vice versa. So from now on new tracks will be created under the moniker Gruppo Infernal. This track was recorded using techniques from my different alter egos as a celebration of this new phase in my musical quest. Hope you enjoy.

live in the living = Live recording in my living room

Flies of the Lord

A place for sound freaks and aural addicts. 

So there's all kinds of stuff on my page, but after months of schizophrenic debates about who was playing with who and who took the lead while doing it, finally, the decision was made: all my alter egos got together and decided to form a band. From 2020 on new tracks are created under the moniker Gruppo Infernal. Only pure MMTJ tracks will still be named as such. 

Gruppo Infernal still relies on my work as Me, my Thumb and Jack, an ongoing quest for a liberating approach to sound creation where the human body acts as an oscillator amplifying the natural 50hz hum. Direct live recording, improvisations and delay loops only using analog filters and effects. No editing, no overdubs. Gruppo Infernal adds digital treatment to this original sound material. 

UnterPitch was an alter ego using samples & synths.
Bleached Coffins was a one-off project using guitars.
