"The bellero shield" is a meditation on my tendency to artificially isolate myself from others, and my attempts to combat this tendency. The title and dialogue samples come from an episode of The Outer Limits with the same name. This track is a "demo" and has yet to be finalized and mastered. It is the first intended for an upcoming release, the complete arc and theme of which are undetermined as yet.

Live set at Exploded View gallery  utilizing homemade percussion boards, sequenced noise, loopers, vocal drones, and feedback

I wouldn't call this a vocal ambient set, but I used my voice for about half the sounds here and it felt good to do so despite inner resistance. When you're afraid of something, do it in public.

Missing the bookends, where audio was tied to video, but will fix that and remaster for publication. Presented here for simple listening rather than "official" release.

Skincage May 7 2016 at The Loft in Tucson, Arizona (Opening For Negativland)

Source material is a homemade electric 3 string guitar/zither, tuned by ear and played with ebow and bamboo skewers. Multiple takes were chopped up and recomposed.

Finally, some new music. This may well be track one of the fourth record. It's called "cloudbuster," in celebration of the fact that it started raining during the recording process. The rain was mixed in as the last layer, and it is the only sound source besides bells and my voice. Recorded live on my kitchen table.


Cloudbuster (7/4/12)

Remix for Gray Girls of the track "Ueno St" off the album "Honey I"

(Miami guitars, Tucson trains)
