Musical experirments with electronica, computers, sequencing, filters and noise rock.

A Pro-Tools studio was built equipped with a Digi 002 rack, mixing board, computers and mic'ed instruments (drums, keys, bass guitar). The following are recordings done over a 2 year period starting in 2005. Experiments commenced with musical forms such as techno-electronica, noise rock and jam rock. Other experiments in noise and sound creation often commenced.

Experiments with recording and 'Pop' song structures

The following recordings were done over a 4-year period in NYC from around 2001 to 2004. Most recordings during this period were experimental jam sessions that resulted in fixed songs structures. Experiments included singer/songwriter material, instrumental compositions, and indie-rock structures. Many pieces have an 'un-finished' quality and are not very refined. Their 'incomplete' nature is what makes them interesting and complete. These recording DO NOT have a underlying coherence but instead are meant to experiment with different musical genres, sounds and content.

Experiments in Computer Generated Noise

The third 'Volume' in the SFTUNOTHDB series I began taking 'found' sounds and manipulating them on the computer. I was really interesting in this volume in understanding what the computer could do and how audio could be manipulated in different forms. The program 'pure-data' was used in conjunction with audio samples to create this entire recording.

Experiments in Computer Generated Noise

The second 'Volume' in the SFTUNOTHDB series explores the relationship between instruments and computer technologies. With this Volume I was interested in understanding aspects of MIDI technologies and how they related to the computer. I juxtaposed this with 'acoustic' instruments and traditional 'electronic' instruments in order to better understand the relationships between the two very different control devises for sound creation.

Experiments in Computer Generated Noise

The first 'Volume' in the SFTUNOTHDB series was some first innitial experiments with computer generated noise and beats. These experiments were conducted over the course of a 2 month period using basic 'WAV' editing programs. This work proved a stating point for future computer related works that span several volumes.

First experiments with the traditional 'Rock' band structure.

mmpc was a first experiment with the structure of an electronic band format. The music was primarliy 'Jam Rock' based but became highly experimental with electronic improvisational formats and time progressed. 'Jams' were extended sometimes reaching an hour or so in length. Songs structures began with 'cover' songs and some originals, often evolving into experiments in controled noise. The following is our one 'album' of original music and other various recording.
