and a musical genius (according to his own opinion)

Delta Berkowitz is a Techno Rock group with shit for brains and fermented fish for heart. Birthed and baptized in an outhouse, the shiftless criminals that comprise this supergroup subsist on your apathy and long for your contempt. Featured in such films as "The Drive Through Abortiatorium" and "Shucky Ducky's Quack Quack Attack 2" Delta Berkowitz is making waves in all the hot venues that serve beer too expensive to vomit up. Catch them on their 2016 "Auto Immolation Sensation" tour!

Hip Hop、Down Tempoが大好きです。MPCで作業をしてます。

and by the way,
the nail caught in her dress
during a conversation with whatever
and her absence of an open mind,

her brother was chasing a trap of nature
in dusty plastic woods,
where wild digital creatures straggle,

as yet with or without success,
we don't know.

Amomus means love for music. Also:

ׂ╰┈➤ I dwell in exploratory kind of music. I explore musical places that may have their origins in some dreamworld, one or another. When I find a feeling, I follow it - sometimes this even leads to a completed new track. It can be a chaotic process. I like it very much. 

✦
ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ I'm all about allowing yourself to explore your own creativity - even through most amateurish ways. As long as there's that passion for music that drives you - it can be an exciting adventure. Just follow your .....((..(...heart...)..)).....

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ My passion for music is endless and goes a long way. While it is a subjective thing, I'm all about digging for gems on Soundcloud. It's something you can look for in my periodical repost playlists. There is a chance you could find my selection alluring and wonder-inducing. And perhaps always a chance to find someone new worth following.

⋆.ೃ࿔*:･ Music is free. Make it free. If you've made some music, let it have a life in as many ears as possible. Let them explore their own relation to it. Freedom of art is universal. I love Soundcloud, because anyone who thinks they created something valuable - can give others the opportunity to find their own reflection of that value. It's a mystery of life.

.•*¨*•.¸¸♪ Soundcloud is a world of many interesting artists and creators. Once you start following them, you quickly realise that you will never be able to see all their latest uploads... because of the badly implemented repost syste... ://BOOM!//: Tuesday, APRIL 8TH 2025// I NOTICED THE ACTUAL Repost Toggle Button SLIDER// ON YOUR OWN FEED PAGE// After 10+ YEARS// MIRACLES ARE POSSIBLE// ((if you give them enough time)) :)))

“The avant garde is dead. That is its triumph. Let it lie.” - Chris Cutler in “Not As We Choose: Music, Memory and Technology”. (Highly recommended!)

“… there is increasingly less call to exercise an already too rare generosity of aesthetic hospitality.” - Chris Cutler

" Music is one of the great Mysteries. It gives life. It is not a career, nor a business, nor a craft. It is a gift... and a great responsibility. Because one can never know where the creative spark comes from or why it exists, it must be treasured as a Mystery. For the most part I believe creativity chooses you, not the other way around." - John Zorn (excerpt from the liner notes to 'Magick')

“Listen as if you were being told a secret” - Federico Fellini

“Experimental and electronic music was once not-so-benignly tolerated at the margins of western art music, but it has over the last decade or so moved toward a central position as something of the soundtrack of our digital culture. Where it once was merely tolerated it is now more engaged and doesn’t have to apologize to anyone”.  - Douglas Kahn 

"Through technology, voices are amplified and silence is broken. Spaces are shared." – Laurie Anderson

"I frequently hear music in the heart of noise." - George Gershwin

"'Tis an ill wind that blows no minds." - 
Malaclypse the Younger in 'Principia Discordia'

“Let us cross a great modern capital with our ears more alert than our eyes and we will get enjoyment from distinguishing the eddying of water, air and gas in metal pipes, the grumbling noises that breathe and pulse with indisputable animility, the palpitation of waves, the coming and going of pistons, the howl of mechanical saws, the jolting of the tram on its rails, the cracking of whips, the flapping of curtains and flags. We enjoy creating mental orchestrations of crashing down of metal shop blinds, slamming doors, the hubbub and shuffle of crowds, the variety of din from the stations, railways, iron foundries, spinning mills, printing works, electric power stations and underground railways.” — Luigi Russolo in 'The Art of Noises' (L'arte dei Rumori)

I was recently featured on the Studio d'essai program on Brisbane's Global Digital radio broadcast: https://studio-dessai.github.io/2017/11/02/sdecv/

I was thrilled to be invited by S♨ciété Cantine to participate in an international collaboration with some of the finest experimental musicians on Soundcloud:

Be sure to check out "Star Stuff",  an hour long mix of my more quiet and contemplative tidbits culled from years of messing about with bits.

I have some older sets on Mixcloud: https://www.mixcloud.com/scoxrox/ The first one, "Bumper of Life" is particularly special to me.

Steve Cox is a Hudson, Ohio based information technology professional who has been obsessed with music for his entire life. Though he quit formal music education in the 6th grade, he began banging on pianos and recording crude tracks using 2 Panasonic portable cassette recorders and overdubbing in the early 80s. In the 90's, he recorded a bunch of original MIDI compositions consisting of sequenced loops and live improvisations. The album, called "Steve Cox Vol. 1", is so legendary and underground that it cannot be found anywhere. Steve himself probably doesn't even know where it is. Starting in 2009, it became apparent to Steve that people were charging pennies for iOS Apps that provided more power and functionality than thousands of dollars in electronic gear did only a few years ago. A new creative burst ensued, and Steve reinvented himself as an iOS musician.

Steve calls himself a "recovering jazz snob". Indeed, until the mid 2000s, you probably couldn't talk to him about music unless you knew who Don Pullen or Phineas Newborn, Jr. were. A few years ago he discovered the music of Steven Ellison (aka Flying Lotus), and came to an epiphany that good music had in fact been made after 1972, lots of it even.

Steve cites the following influences:


Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, Harry Belafonte, Charles Mingus, Wendy Carlos, Joni Mitchell, Joe Zawinul, The Eagles, Henry Threadgill, Peter Brötzmann, John Coltrane, Albert Ayler, Ken Vandermark, Prince, Miles Davis, Don Pullen, John Zorn, Paulo Moura, Pixinguinha, Pachora, Marc Ribot, The Boredoms, Yes, Otomo Yoshihide, Merzbow, The Beach Boys, Liberation Music Orchestra, Orchestra Baobab, Aether (aka Diego Chavez), Art Ensemble of Chicago, John Cage, Rahsaan Roland Kirk, Flying Lotus, Flying Luttenbachers, Public Enemy, Ametsub, Pat Metheny Group, Daedelus, Olivier Messiaen, Steve Reich, Sigur Rós, Hermeto Pascoal, DJ Shadow, Yamantaka Eye, Autechre, Sergio Mendes, Burial, Evan Parker Electro-Acoustic Ensemble, Galt MacDermot, J Dilla, Lester Bowie, Beirut, Art Blakey, Clifford Brown, Arvo Pärt, Mahavishnu Orchestra, Krzysztof Penderecki, Herbie Hancock, Bill Frisell, Himuro Yoshiteru, Art Tatum, Hudson Mohawke, Last Exit, Marco Benevento, Pere Ubu, Nosaj Thing, Prefuse 73, Rovo, Sonic Youth, Zs, Jim O'Rourke, Gang Gang Dance, Tim Berne, Madlib, Four Tet, Dimlite, Count Basie, OOIOO, Muhal Richard Abrams, Weather Report, Derek Bailey, Merle Haggard, Edgard Varèse, Sidney Bechet, Steve Lacy, Sun Ra, Jim Brickman, Buckethead, and Parliament
