Test Tone Generators -  A songwriting & beatmaking arm of the Sound_Projects stable. Was several years in the pondering state and finally materialised between 2010 - 2013. A backlog in older styles and ideas spewed out at first and then it developed into some gnarly, noisy stuff.  
Accessibly diverse and in constant development. Sounds & styles will vary all over the shop, hope something grabs you. 
Several one-man-band live shows happened and a retrospective of the project will be compiled shortly. A computer meltdown and loss of material forced the hand, but a yearning to make music collaboratively took over and there's something new afoot!

Test Tone Generators

Rough mix of track I started work on in a caravan at a festival in Germany a while back, which was then followed up by some work on a patio south of Lisbon, Portugal. Just checking the mix at the minute before uploading to the TTG Reverbnation page...

Anfang des Endes - Test Tone Generators

Welcome to the Sound_Projects Soundcloud -  hosting material from Test Tone Generators, Big Lummox, Riverdog, Spherical Velocipede, Eastern West Franchise and other projects in and around the curator Simon Doling.

I am a musician, producer, sound engineer. Arts facilitator & promoter. I played drums from an early age, cutting my first seven inch at fifteen and moved to London from North Hertfordshire shortly afterwards to play in bands such as World Domination Enterprises, Terminal Cheesecake, Oil Seed Rape and (very briefly) Collapsed Lung. I also played bass & percussion with Thule and Wide Receiver too. In the last few years I've sat behind the kit with former Can vocalist Damo Suzuki, as part of his network of instant-composition musicians and collaborate on and produce varying musical projects. 

Since my early twenties I was a sound engineer touring worldwide with a host of artists, as well as booker & promoter of shows in numerous places. I've production credits on varying european releases over the years and also managed and booked a variety of artists as well as running a successful youth music project in Suffolk where I now reside. 

I'm freelance, delivering music tech workshops in the community. I also accompany contemporary dance classes playing the drums. I'm occasionally engaged as sound artist and compose, remix and DJ too.
