Study For Steel And Paper

This is first of the four tracks of a new collaboration with my music friend Pete Swinton. I will be re-working some of his tracks from his excellent Butterfly and Ship album.

https://peteswinton.bandcamp.com/album/butterfly-and-ship
This track is a re-work of his track - 01. OSC Sine 63Hz 0dbFS.

It was mixed in the AUM app on my iPad and used  iPad apps such as Hillman Synth, Euclidian, Nembrini Delay, Grand Finale, Fluss and Bleass Chorus.

Butterfly And Ship (with Pete Swinton)  1. Sinyphasia

This is a one-pass guitar improv from last night, with no post-editing or mixing whatsoever. I feel the flow works really nicely so decided to post it. Enjoy!

The pic was taken in Stratford, East London, sometime before the Olympics.

UNFOLD

UNFOLD I (Jukka-Pekka Kervinen/Ulrich Langenbach/Martin Hoogeboom)

A collaboration with a music friend Encym (Roland). I have done a few collaborations with Roland now and it is always a pleasure to work with him.
This track contains a number of wonderful samples that Roland sent me earlier in the year. These have been manipulated with an apps such as Fluss and SpaceCraft and with effects added from a Nembrini delay, Other Desert Cities and Speaker.

The track was put together in AUM.

"If you watch close, history does nothing but repeat itself. What we call chaos is just patterns we haven't recognized. What we call random is just patterns we can't decipher. What we can't understand we call nonsense. What we can't read we call gibberish. There is no free will. There are no variables.”  ― Chuck Palahniuk

Ed Brunsden was kind and patient enough to interview me for  his blog Desert... Mountain... Dust...  - you can read it at https://desertmountaindust.blogspot.com.au/2017/02/tuonela-primitive-progressive.html

After silence, that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music. ~ Aldous Huxley

All good music resembles something. Good music stirs by its mysterious resemblance to the objects and feelings which motivated it. ~ Jean Cocteau

All music is beautiful. ~ Billy Strayhorn
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I've become addicted to drone. Again. I was the kid with his head on the piano, listening to the overtones die away, or pressing his ear to the steel hull of the ferry, enthralled by the sounds it created. I was the kid who formed wordless songs to accompany the sound of train wheels on a long journey, or hummed along with the fan on a hot day.

In the 60s I used to play my 45s on 16, or backwards, or by hand using razor blades as stylii.

I made cut-up tapes on a cheap cassette recorder in the 70s and experimented with reel-to-reel in the 80s. 

Thank you Subotnick, Lygeti, Coltrane, Jimi, Mimaroglu, Eno, Cluster, Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze, Frank Zappa, Pink Floyd, Kraftwerk, Throbbing Gristle...

I am not a musician. I am a scavenger of sounds. I use the most basic software to process those sounds, stretching and filtering until something emerges that makes a joyful noise. Or not...
