Name: Mr. Doom by Dr. Butcher
Duration: 2 min 1 s
Description: Mr. Doom was one of the many ideas for a "name" for the kind of music that I make. This was the theme song for the project that eventually became Dr. Butcher. I suppose it was a better name than Flopmaster Squanch, or the Rhythm Boobs. This version didn't make it to the second collection, and I regret not including it - this one is much better.

Mr. Doom

This was a collaboration with Matt Mangold who played recorder. I played the left hand bass drum of a set of tablas. We interacted with a digital loop of us in real time to give the illusion of more players. It evokes a macabre dance willingly or not of sickened villagers.

Matt Mangold & Brian Gomien - Waltz Of The Plague

Another Collaboration with Matt Mangold and Gerald Menke. We used distorted guitar, clarinet reed, tablas, tambourine, thumb piano and trombone in tandem with a real time digital loop.

Matt Mangold & Brian Gomien -Serpent In The Garden

I have put off uploading this for a long time. I wanted to add upright bass and a few other touches but I still want to preserve the intimacy of this track. It may get fleshed out more but for now I'm happy with it.

This was a sketch that I had made when I was first learning tabla. I created a digital loop from a sarangi sample and my little sister's parakeet chirping. The guitar was open tuned similar to bouzouki FADACD. It was later fleshed out with "Mohenjo Daro"

Hillsides (Sketch)

Music that NOBODY (of sound mind) would want to listen to... ever.
