Soundscapes

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

My attempt at making a radioactive song :)

This is a live improvised algorithmic coding performance in Tidal Cycles.

Geiger Counter

This is a live improvised algorithmic song that I wrote in Tidal Cycles using Haskell programming language and recorded it, then I filtered through Audacity to achieve the effect I was going for, which was some kind of Tibetan drone.

Basalt

This sad clown ran between some buildings in the city to cry next to a dumpster when nobody liked his show.  This is an improvised song that was later heavily edited in audacity to achieve what a lot of people sounds like "underwater", but I just call it "creepy sad".

Pathetic

Ambient sludge.  Made with TE OP-1 Field.  Recordings of myself using these instruments: opening a soda can, crunching a protein bar wrapper, unrolling a thing of packaging tape, tapping on my old metal office desk.  We are all just selfish rats.

Rats Under The Docks

Ambient soundscape with lead soft glockenspiel on TEOP1.

Expected

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 began writing this piece for minimalist organ with the intention of having multiple overlapping sections, but then I got bored and added some funk.  When I got to editing in Audacity, I added a "Paul Stretch" to a section which is the thing that makes it sometimes sound like it's "underwater", but this time it sounded like an airplane, so I got obsessed with that noise and put it all over the track in different forms and made that the general theme.

Well Clear ADSB

Experimental meditation oscillation song. TEOP1 Field keyboard, started with a layer of mid-level digital organ with some weird timber effect in it, then added an almost walking jazz bass accompaniment, then went back and added a higher layer of some more ethereal stuff.  The point of this song is drone background for some thinking/working.

Preoccupied Oscillation

Collaboration between Brendan Dempsey (Bass Guitar) and NOSTRUMUVA (TEOP1, Soda Can, Tibetan Singing Bowl).

Occult Devotion

A winter track to freeze yourself with.  All TEOP1 again and then some large room reverb in audacity.

Ice Notes

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.
