You can smell the smell of heating capacitors, wet fingers on the potentiometers...very interesting...I love it!

the Mind series are dedicated to ambient with a sniff of angst

Mind 8

P a b l o presented me this ambient drone titled "lost souls" for me to experiment on. In Belgium we're facing our third covid lockdown in one year. Help organizations worldwide are reporting alarming numbers of domestic violence and abuse due to lockdown. Lost Souls immediately became Trapped Souls in my head. I tried to evoke such disturbing situations through sound. It was an emotional rollercoaster. Anyhow, this is the result.

Lyrics


Oh I need ya baby
Like the corn need the sun
I need you and you know
It’s true

Without you sunshine
I’d be so glum
It’d be all misery and heartbreak
Without you

And that smile
It lifts me up
It satisfies 
My restless soul

Oh God help me
When you prance and saunter
My poor heart beats so fast
I’m afraid it might falter 

When the good lord in heaven
Sat down to create you
The angles must have gathered around

To gaze in stunned wonder
At the beauty he sundered 
From this medium of flesh and bone

I can’t leave you alone
I’ve got no choice
There ain’t anything else
In this world that would do

I love you woman
And I ain’t no fool
I will not be parted
From this precious jewel

Oh I need ya baby
Like the corn need the sun
I need you and you know
It’s true

Without you sunshine
I’d be so glum
It’d be all misery and heartbreak
About you

And that smile
It lifts me up
It satisfies 
My restless soul

Oh God help me
When you prance and saunter
My poor heart beats so fast
I’m afraid it might stop

Like a lot of us these days, I have some extra hours on my hands. While looking to amuse myself at this most unamusing time, I made this. I hope it cheers you, too, and provides a few minutes pleasure. That is all it is for.

This music is also my version of whistling past the graveyard. One of many versions.

Please stay healthy. And let us be strong, and pick each other up when one of us is down.

dac insomniac + r.s.stropharia - darkspeaker I - impro-set live (15.12.2019)

Based on the Bruno Jasieński's poem "Morga"

Przy­je­cha­li czar­ną, za­mknię­tą ka­ret­ką.
(Był wie­czór... je­sien­ny wie­czór...
Bło­to - sple­en - za­pa­trze­nie...)
Wy­nie­śli coś cięż­kie­go, na­kry­te­go płach­tą.
Po­sta­wi­li no­sze na ka­mie­nie.
Ro­bi­li rzecz zwin­nie.
Lam­pa oświe­tla­ła ich ja­sno, bia­ło.
Było ci­cho... Deszcz śpie­wał w ryn­nie...
Ko­nie czła­pa­ły ko­py­ta­mi...
(... Coś się sta­ło... Coś się sta­ło...)


Przy­sta­nę­ło kil­ku cie­ka­wych.
Pa­trzy­li. Py­ta­li.
Do­la­ty­wa­ły po­je­dyn­cze sło­wa.
Ja­kaś roz­mo­wa ury­wa­na, krót­ka,
Pro­wa­dzo­na ści­szo­nym stac­ca­tem...

... 25 lat ... Pro­sty­tut­ka...
... sub­li­ma­tem ...
Pod­nie­śli no­sze. We­szli do sie­ni.
(Deszcz pa­dał... kro­ple tłu­kły o dach...)
Je­den świe­cił im z przo­du la­tar­nią.
(... Ta­niec cie­ni ...)
Po­nie­śli w dół po lep­kich, wy­śli­zga­nych scho­dach
Do ogrom­nej, skle­pio­nej piw­ni­cy.
No­sze sta­ły rzę­dem.
Coś czar­ne­go mi­gnę­ło... prze­pa­dło...
Może szczur?... Może cień z uli­cy?...
Je­den świe­cił la­tar­nią.
Przy­sta­nął.
Po­sta­wi­li pod ścia­ną.
Wy­tar­li gło­śno nosy.
Wy­szli.


Klucz zgrzyt­nął w zam­ku...
Jesz­cze ci­che od­da­lo­ne gło­sy...
Jesz­cze kro­ki cich­ną­ce na górę...
(... Jak my­śli ... jak my­śli ...)
Po­tem tur­kot po bru­ku za bra­mą...
I nic...
Ci­sza...
Ciem­no...
Zo­sta­wi­li SAMĄ, zu­peł­nie SAMĄ ...
Samą jed­ną na ubo­czu.

No­sze sta­ły sze­re­giem nie­ru­cho­me, na­kry­te.
Noga przy no­dze.
Z kąta bły­snę­ła para zie­lon­ka­wych oczu ...
Jed­na ... Dru­ga ...
Wpa­try­wa­ły się dłu­go, ba­daw­czo ...

Coś sze­le­ści­ło po mo­krej ka­mien­nej pod­ło­dze ...

Na gó­rze pa­li­ły się lam­py.
Chod­ni­kiem wlókł się ja­kiś pi­ja­ny ro­bot­nik,
Wiecz­ny po oce­anach ulic ar­go­nau­ta.


Uli­cą z świ­stem sy­ren ści­ga­ły się auta.

A place for sound freaks lashing out from the dark. 

So there's all kinds of stuff on this page, but after months of schizophrenic debates about who was playing with who and who took the lead while doing it, finally, the decision was made: all my alter egos got together and decided to form a band. From 2020 on new tracks are created under the moniker Gruppo Infernal. Only pure MMTJ tracks will still be named as such. 

Gruppo Infernal still relies on my work as Me, my Thumb and Jack, an ongoing quest for a liberating approach to sound creation where the human body acts as an oscillator amplifying the natural 50hz hum. Direct live recording, improvisations and delay loops only using analog filters and effects. No editing, no overdubs. Gruppo Infernal adds digital treatment to this original sound material. 

UnterPitch was an alter ego using samples & synths.
Bleached Coffins was a one-off project using guitars.

earliest work when I was still a pup:

Ughten is collaboration between two friends Chase Rockwell and Electric Supply Station.
A friendship spanning 25 years built on music, dancing and confusing the minds of people we meet.
Ughten is created by the simple melodies and ideas crafted by Electric Supply Station being torn apart and reimagined by Chase Rockwell.
Collaboration with no limits
