In a living planet even the stones breathe...

Night Sky Bulletin

World has slowed down. 
Hidden beneath a skin of fear.

All Silver was created during the first days of the Corona shutdown.
Made with passion and modular synths.

The Great Blue Hexagon

...continuing the refinement of the composition, I have explored the possibilities of "feedback", utilizing it at few soundscapes while merging them all into the basic metallic noise playing throughout in the background...

Thanks to the lockdown and the lack of proper work on these past 2 months I decided to (finally) open and old box of DAT I got from my storage place in Argentina when I was forced to close it and decide what to keep (bring it home on the plane), what to sell, what to discard.
These DAT (my go-to recording/archival media in the 90s)  included loads of tapes with Jams and impromptu encounters that I recorded there live and never ever listened to.
I realize now how good that attitude was,( just tape everything that happens at home or archival purposes), I did that all the time, stopped later, I promise to do it again in the future.

I discovered many gems, funny and intense moments, I include here one rehearsal for a song I composed in 1985 (one of my first proper composition) . I make a little bass solo that's pretty lame, but my partners live-at-home performance is awesome and I'm glad to make this available for you to listen and criticize.

This happened in Buenos Aires, March 9th 1995 at my home/studio in the Julian Alvarez street of the Palermo Viejo area. Recorded live to DAT (one mic for the guitar, one for the bass, a stereo AT mic for the percussion set.

Gabriel Kirschenbaum: spanish guitar
Ricardo Hambra: percussion (tabla, bombo) @udfmusic1
Daniel Diaz: acoustic bass guitar

Fractured Harmony

A tune titled in appreciation of the giant hexagon that sits at the top of Saturn.

Instruments:
Gold Tone tenor guitar, Burke A whistle

The Great Blue Hexagon (version 2)

Instruments:
WuYou tongue drum, Doug Tipple flute, Burke tin whistle, glockenspiel, bongos, egg shaker

Bright Sun Shining On Singing Chickadees In A Snowy Marsh (version 2)

This ambient piece is something of a departure for us, being somewhat calming as opposed to our more usual dark ambient/experimental output. It comes from the opening section of our second 2021 Lockdown Collaboration jam, recorded 06/01/21. 

The main piano soundscape was kindly provided by @anmoku. We also created a film for the piece and successfully submitted it for inclusion in "Dawn" online experimental music festival, curated by Glasgow-based Sound Thought, held over the last weekend of February.

Awakening

Original compositions played upon various acoustic instruments. 

At the moment, the majority of music I record is original folk tunes. Most of these tunes arise whilst out in natural ecosystems or shortly after visiting a natural ecosystem. The titles often reflect an aspect of the ecosystem I had noticed while the tune came about. Lately this is usually a species of bird.

Tin whistles and flutes appear the most often in my recordings; though mandolin, tenor guitar, lyre harp, jaw harp, dulcitar, and a handful of other instruments show up fairly often as well.

And here's some more music I've made along with my friend Dan Jones:
