Everything

Best Of

Improvised song on my old Yamaha keyboard through a guitar effects pedal.  The coolest part of this song is the unintentional recorded feedback matched up with what I was playing.

Standard

Multi-layer improvised song on Korg Radias keyboard with some quality portamento.

Octal 73

Waveform artwork is a section from one of my acrylic paintings I made when I taught a paint night at my house.  I composed the basis for this song on my phone while my girl went into a haunted house and I was scared so I waited outside, hence the name of the song.  I went back over this song multiple times with Korg Radias later, and also with Kaossilator to add effects.

Haunted Wait

Collaboration project between Bismuth Sky and NOSTRUMUVA.  If you put a neodymium magnet between two bismuth ingots and then put another large magnet above that, you can get the small magnet to float because bismuth is diamagnetic.  Bismuth Sky provided the bass track and I improvised Akai EWI4000s over top of that and ran it through audacity to provide more of a drone ethereal sound.

Diamagnetic

I wrote this song right after buying polishing supplies to fix a scratched fake marble sink in my old condo.  I was upset but trying to calm down.  This is a multi-layer improvised song with me on Korg Radias keyboard and also using a Kaossilator.

Polishing Supplies

I was trying to make a relaxed dissonant melancholy song, in the style of Erik Satie (think Minecraft).  This was improvised on my Korg Radias and recorded to my BOSS RC 50 Loop Pedal.

Regular Day

Specifically, imagine the Rock Biter in The NeverEnding Story trying to hold on to his friends as the Nothing takes them away.

"They look like big, good, strong hands, don't they? I always thought that's what they were."

My little sister and I often joked about getting "weak hand syndrome" (WHS) when we were oxygen-deprived from laughing too much.

Resilient

Nulla apparet ratio.
Si causa est, non invenimus.

Translation:
There is no apparent reason.
If there is a reason, we have not found it.

This girl tried to believe in a purpose, but she encountered too much pain and no longer believes in justice.

Non Invenimus

There is a mystical place in the ocean, and if you jump in with your eyes closed, then you become the leader of a bunch of deep sea creatures that worship you, promise.

Guider Of The Deep

So this is an avant-garde dubstep song.  I began with TEOP1 and intentionally tried to be slightly offbeat and a bit random and to drag it out, then get it all to come together and pull out a primary melody with an electronic lead ("dimension" instrument on TEOP1) with a few piano sections ("pianistic" instrument on TEOP-1) and add in dub bass.  I went through 2 cycles of adding it to the 4-track on TEOP1, copying it out from COM to laptop, filtering in Audacity, copied it back, added more layers, then back to laptop again.  Normalized to -14dB with -1dB soft limit.  This song represents how I felt in the middle of the night at 3am while soldering random circuits for a supercapacitor experiment I was doing, and likely breathing in too much of the lead solder fumes.

Late Night Garage Experiments

Ambient soundscape of being inside of a heart.  TEOP1 keyboard with multiple really low modulated wumps, then a few lead layers mostly triplets of dissonant 2nds and 7ths, intentionally with no rhythm.  Then simple Audacity cleanup to -14dB normalization and -1dB soft limit.

Inside The Heart

I'm going to start doing some live looping performances on TEOP1 so this is a random practice session that is kind of Jam Band / Scat / Funk.  There is a 4-track on the TEOP1, so I can start out with drums or scat and then hit a key to end the loop, then just keep playing live and kind of overdub onto the other 3 tracks, and then also add in breaks by holding on one of the tracks while playing a B section.  I just live improvised the bass loop and then improvised the organ and keys as I went.  Random mood today, sorry to my dubstep and ambient fans :) This one is weird.

Attentive

Some basic ambient jamming out on Tidal Cycles with simultaneous TEOP1 keyboard at the same time.  If you want to watch me code in Haskell and play the keyboard at the same time, watch here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-g_n5ztNvvk

Multitasking

For reasons unknown but time will tell...
Multi-instrumentalist, all types of music, all types of methods.
Occasional collaborations with other artists.
Sometimes I post the sheet music if it's piano.
Lately, my favorite instrument is a TE OP-1 Field keyboard.
