Live Set Jams

Straight from the heart of darkness itself, the void where sound doesn't propagate, comes this dark and energetic monstrosity melody if you know how to find it in the wave overtures curving curvatures through the space between your ears activating your neuronal electrical hormonal drug releasing systems of cells that make you an illegal lab in your brain, a methodic  melody dialing in pleasure to behold. Listen. Crank the volume... or as they say, #pumpUpTheVolume. 

Straight Outta BadRectifier's Glow In The Dark Monster

The Mutant Bassdrums in BadRectifier.systems GlowInTheDarkMonster emit an awesome sound when driven by an Intellijel Metropolis and processed by a Roland System-1m. The GlowInTheDarkMonster is growing its range of capabilities each week.

Straight Outta BadRectifier's Mutant Bassdrums

Exploring Dial Modulations. Highly experimental patch Metropolis driving Mutant Bassdrums processed by forked independent Aira Effects and System-1m paths. The bass drums by HexInverter are kick ass. Processing them by the Roland Aira effects units, Scooper, Demora, Torcindo, and BitRazer and at the same time by the Roland System-1m is quite stunning at times and utterly hopelessly strange, bizarre, over the top, under the bottom, inside out and spacey back to grounded bass drums. A wild ranging wondering exporations of the possible sounds from these systems. The Metrpolis from Intellijel kept the pounding sequence going at 60 BMP and then later on, you can hear the pace change, up to 128 BMP, a common club beat pace. Oh, and least we forget the Korg SQ-1 provided LFO CV and Gate modulation to the various parameters of the Aira Effects units at various times. Recorded to a Zoom H6.

The Alpha Null Null One Chord as played by a Human Aggregator. 

My very simple alpha null null one chord on my awesome JP-8000. Every player starts at an alpha chord. 

I composed a song after reading about music theory all weekend. It is based in one chord, the first chord I composed, ever. As a player I'm a human arpeggiator beater, a human arp. Now it's evolved into a whole piece after playing it on many keyboard instruments. I consider it an independent standing piece on it's own merits to be enjoyed. Layering it into another piece set brings a union divergence unique potency pulsing life machine to the forefront. This has helped because many questions while composing are eliminated by some of the ideas in Music Theory, and by enough that my playing was informed to new skillz levels. Enjoy the piece. Now where did I put that link. Oh you know what, it's just below a ways, you can't miss it. Alpha Null Null One Chord, ‪#‎Alpha001Chord‬ ‪#‎HumanArm‬ ‪#‎BadRectifierDotBand‬

Actually the more I listen to it the more fucking amazing it reveals itself to be.

Alpha Null Null One Chord, Human Arp, on a JP-8000

The simple Alpha Null Null One Chord arpeggiated on a Roland RD-100 88 Key 32/64 note voice stage piano by a human arpeggiator.

The Alpha Null Null One Chord, Human Arp, on a RD - 100

The Alpha Zero Zero One Chord expressed upon three keyboards through time. Sub 37 from Moog. JP8000 and RD100 from Roland. Infinite variety flows out of possibilities seen and acted upon realizing now what is then the next stepping stone progressions forward. 

Then a new version on three keyboards with very different sounds yet a unified chord arpeggiation across the instruments, in-strum-ends providing coherence. A little music theory is a dangerous thing in the hands of a human arpeggiator beater. Chord connectivity. The awesome amazing reach of my very first composed chord, the alpha zero zero one chord comes from the innate observations that lead to codification of music. I feel the master coder of software flowing out through music theory as if it is a language designed for the most awesome sounds, which it is.

A tribute to my friends Harreson, Bee happy.

OPTIMISTIC NIHILISM: The fact that life is empty and meaningless doesn't mean we that we can't enjoy ourselves. 

"To play a wrong note is insignificant, but to play without passion is unforgivable." - L.V. Beethoven



Optimistic Nihilism Alpha 001 Pace The Wave

Two Roland Aira System-1m units driven by the two channels of the Arturia BeatStep Pro. One at 64 steps per loop and the other at 16 steps per loop in the middle that comes and goes. The chain represents the notes in a step sequence.

Dual Spacy Systems

The defining movement moment. No  it is not a stiff joke, it's not that bad really, bad as in BadRectifier.systems, We Fix The Bad In Systems.

I totally fail at 4'33" for two reasons, this piece is 4'43" long, and it doesn't have much silence, if any.

An environment hearing is seeing the wilderness in the mind's eyes. Imagine walking in an alien jungle with your guide, Anomaly, keeping you safe... what do you see in your mind's eye that is making the sounds? what kind of creatures?

Thank you Roland for the Aira System-1m, thank you Intellijel for the Metropolis.

Hoping you had a #SpookyBoo!!! Live set style, no edits (ok fade in/out), one take.

My nascent modular and non-modular friends... started in the late spring... with a Teenage.engineering OP-1... followed soon by the Roland Aira System-1m, the four Roland Aira FX units (each with front panel effect and six virtual eurorack modules for a total of 28 eurorack modules in one 84HP row!), an Intellijel Metropolis, HexInverter Mutant Bassdrum 808 kicks, more eurorack modules... TipTop Z3000mkII, MakeNoise Maths, tons of Synthrotek kits, ... with WMD Gamma Wavesource and two Moog Mother-32 pure analog bliss on order... www.facebook.com/1416018635393736…1481853765476889.

I've never used just about all my Roland gear in a piece... the only Roland musical thingi I didn't use was the Aira FX Scooper! Oh, nor the PLUG-OUTS... oh and only one System-1m in use this time... oops, didn't use the VT-03 Voice Transformer... so most of my Roland gear is in play.

I used my Roland Aira System-1m, Aira FX units Demora delay, Torcindo distortion and the always wonderful BitRazer for the crushing of bits; not to forget the incredible venerable RD-100 stage piano and the majestic new JDXi, with a nice arpeggiation by the classic JP-8000.

In addition two Moog units are at play in the piece, a Moog Sub 37 doing it's own arpeggiated sequence, and a Moog Minitaur being driven by the venerable Roland RD-100 stage piano via Midi Din. A few other Eurorack modules are also used aside from the one's mentioned above.

#SpookyBoo

A requiem for all innocents caught up in the cycle of violence of all of those who use violence for political purposes.

The objective reality of Nature is a harsh mistress to us all, some more than others. Why do people choose to use the initiation of violence to solve political problems? They are driven by ideas that violate the rights of others... in pursuit of their dark visions that violate consent.

I wrote this dark piece as a requiem for all the innocents caught up in the violence and mass murderous acts of #all those who are dedicated to using and initiating aggression, violence, murder, weapons, destruction, ... to further their political goals. This applies to all who use violence. Self defense is one thing but the slaughter of innocents by any group of people is a war crime. War is never justice. As soon as one innocent is murdered those involved have become war criminals and need to be brought to justice.

Arpeggiating a chord and taking it where the feels lead me so that I could express the music that already existed in the realm of possibility. I actually arpeggiated two chords, one with each hand. The left hand sustained the dark notes throughout most of the piece. The right hand explored the other emotions.

The full title is Requiem For Innocents Everywhere And Everywhen.
It was one take till the emotion felt like it had been transcribed into music. No edits other than fade in/out and level adjustment.

Requiem For Innocents (everywhere)

The Roland JD-Xi is just damn extremely insane. This piece was created for, submitted to, and played at the Groundwerk Vancouver GW006 event. Six hours of jamming, then listening and selecting one six minute continuous clip. This is a complex set of layers with two synth tracks and twenty six drum kit instruments with evolving 64 step loops throughout the piece.

A live set jam session with the BadRectifier.band #GlowInTheDarkMonster. Amazing sounds. Added the Dave Smith Modular DSM01 Character module into the sound chain after the Roland Aira FX units Scooper sampler, Demora delay, Torcindo distortion and the iconic BitRazer crusher of bits. Sweet location for the DSM01 Character effects... it's new home.

Wicked Squirky Bass | Vilmos Anomaly | GW008

Mutant Waves pour out of my cerebral cortex and all places where harmony may not ever have existed and may not yet. Modular Synthesis to melt your brain.  Mathematically all music exists at all times across eternity time, so when one "creates" music one is really exploring an existing mathematical space of possibilities and threading a fabric across spacetime in the audio domain. An excursion into this possible existence space of music and sound extracts these mutant waves into your brain. We are not responsible for your brain melting into new possibilities, but we do encourage you to take a leap into the realms of the possible and explore.
