Just listening to this again for the first time. Dang, Dorsch! Fantastic.

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.

Notwithstanding

This song needs a movie. Yup. It sure does.

This is a theme I've been recording on and off for the last 25 years.
This time I fiddled around with some sounds/patches I won in a charity auction to help orphaned kids from Syria. These patches were designed (and donated) by "The Unfinished" for the software synthesizer, Omnisphere.

"The Unfinished" (aka Matt Bowdler, google him), is a soundtracky kinda fella from the UK, who designs sounds for synthesizers in between doing... movie soundtracks. Any surprises here?

P.S. HIRE ME, I WANT TO DO A SOUNDTRACK FOR YOUR MOVIE... 
that, and I enjoy the concept of quitting my day job

This Song Needs A Movie

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

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