It's a miracle I pulled this one off without the MacBook crashing... full steam ahead on both CPUs

You really should be a movie soundtrack composer..

The Sustain Series project continues with its second volume, 24 recycled forms created from old and unused material. Since the release of Volume 1 in November last year, more artists have come together to salvage, repurpose, restore and deconstruct each other’s pieces, or collaborate on a particular idea. What results is a growing variety of approaches and outputs, from minor embellishments to full disfigurement.

Volume 2 moves thematically, as if in four chapters, from the expressive openers, through enchanting natural-sounding pieces, before opening up to more ethereal expanses, and finally darker and more thoughtful ones. As it does, visions emerge of our natural world - its power, its beauty and its vulnerability.

Halftribe & awakened souls - Upstream

Filament and Place

Notwithstanding

This well known track by Zawinul (originally from Weather Report’s “Tale Spinnin’” record) is one of our favorites. This was our encore at UpFront on 9/30/22.

The Album That Never Was

Badia (Zawinul) - UpFront Exhibition Space 9/30/22

This is an improvised piece - just sitting at the piano, and playing whatever comes out. As the title says, it was a rainy day in May. 3:15 in length.

Pillars of Creation - Dust Two

Quick test of Eastwood Classic Tenor Guitar, Haken Continuum, and Korg Wavestate

quick and dirty ambient demo

Another wonder around on the CS80 and Oasys

After the Storm

As I continue digging though my old recordings, I found a song I wrote in 1979 and recorded on my Teac A-3440 4-track reel-to-reel tape deck. Punk was all the rage, and the Sex Pistols had just played their U.S. debut at Atlanta’s Great Southeast Music Hall two years earlier. Note that the refrain, “It hurts so good,” was two years before the hit single with a similar title. ©1979 by Geary Yelton

Beat Me (1980)

Processed ukulele, modular synth, and Haken Continuum

Anisochrony

First song from my live set at EM2012
http://event.electro-music.com

This song is a combo of at least three compositions from the year previous to this show.
You can hear a Zen Tambour at about 1:20 to 2:20 here (this Zen is tuned to D-Akebono). Learn more at http://www.exoticvessels.com/zentambour/

Otherwise I'm playing several hardware and software synths via several MIDI controllers, including:
Korg MS2000R, Roland SH-201, Omnisphere, Stylus RMX, Albino 3, Arturia Analog Factory, Audio Damage Tattoo, and Audio Damage FX. All hosted via Ableton Live 8 as a virtual rack and master arp-tempo conductor.

If you need a visual to go with the song, the following video was shown simultaneously:

Finding Solace (live at EM2012)

Eclectic multi-Instrumentalist. I just freakin' love sound, and the tools to create and shape sound.
