Built a new rack for nearly all the equipment to fit on. New spring 'box' takes up far less space, as well as being integrated into a setup that allows easier access and movement for everything. The link is to a short video shot during this recording, watch it to see what the new setup looks like. Other than some background samples of the 202, all sounds originate as springs or saw blades.

New model Racket

Track begins with a BOSS sp-202 feeding back into a Behringer mixer. Nothing but the signal noise creating the sound of the feedback loop. The headphone jack was run into the input of the mixer to achieve the feedback loop.
Next was two saw blades, and a makeshift bell run into a Behringer EM600.
Springs, and mic into a Behringer DD600 with the phase out running to a chorus pedal that split first to a DigiTech ps1550, and a First Act delay to a distortion.
Last was a mic into a DigiTech RPS1900.
With the headphone feeding the sampler I could record what was coming thru the mixer, (which was everything).

GNU Jun 12 Monkey guts

Beginning to incorporate a Roland tr-08 into some of the noise pieces.  The purpose will be using it to help construct "skeletons" of noise pieces for live performances. The only structure being the drum machine patterns everything else done as the moment dictates.
These were both made using the TR-08 and a Korg ES-1 with additional effects pedals on the Roland and an effects feedback loop across both.

Wait Ragz made a cover song 😯? What the fuck?
Yes that is correct, in the vein of Laibach I took a song and reimagined it in my image adding my two cents to the legacy of a piece of music.

First person to msg me the answer gets an Iconoclast tee-shirt. Bonus for a shirt and cd; name both the original & the Colorado hardcore band that did a cover of the same song (circa late 80's)I'll throw you a copy of my album American Sadhu as well. 

This is one of the few songs that regularly floats through my mind since first hearing the cover in '91. So in the midst of a noise paractice words were laid down amidst the cacophony.

Resurrect Consecrated Psyche

Every four years people care more about politics. What about all the time in between? How about the local issues on the ballot every year? We the people need to change things at the fundamental level using the tools already available to us. Or these jokers will continue to abuse the power we allow them to have.

Lost the use of GNU temporarily this month. So we had an impromptu jam at the Rejekted Kauses Noise Lab.

NOisE jAm MarcH

The aim of Rejekted Kauses is to create meditative atmospheres out of the noise found in rhythm, percussion and the cycling beats that can happen in the midst of chaos. Philosophically based in the idea of Iconoclasm and meditation; expressed in live performance as the 'noise shaman' of Northern CO.

Making noise music on and off in Northern CO for over 20 yrs principle member Ragz Rejected has found permanent boundaries within the personal noise project Rejekted Kauses. Having played FoCoMX numerouse times as well as hosting a monthly noise night at long missed GNU Gallery Rejekted Kauses has become a staple of Fort Collins noise over the last 9yrs.

Methodology involves piezo mic'd percussion rigs that include garage door springs, pipe, street signs, delay, and samples.
