Nothing special, but I like the neon highlights of the refracted light and the noise, which looks like high iso but it's just water mist from the waterfall - The Lagoa do Vento Waterfall (Levada das 25 Fontes) Madeira, Portugal 🇵🇹
Happy Friday, everyone. My first new album in a year is here. A Knife Into Flowers is six tracks of dissonant synths, surrealist adventures in distortion, transistor radio surfing and vaguely post-apocalyptic goodness.
To save you a little coinage, use a code for a free download.
Enter a code here: https://stevenraysound.bandcamp.com/yum
If the code you try has already been used, try the next one. Remember to let everyone know which code you used in the comments. If none of them work, let me know and I’ll generate more.
anharmonic rapture of broken proportions, physiographic decomposing digital synapses back firing into a regurgitating 8 bit circuit board of misstrung 1 and 0's.
Non-musical, heavily tweaked glitches and #noise. Signal: From my E352 "Cloud Terrarium" to my new M.I. "Clouds" directly to my mixer, with no effects added.
“The team found that a school of #fish moving together in just the right way was stunningly effective at #noise reduction: A school of seven fish sounded like a single fish.
As promised, here's some free download codes! First up, a baker's dozen codes for my #psychedelic#scifi post-industrial electro-dub concept album Psychedelic Ghost Stories.
Then you can slake your (audio) thirst with a long, cool drink of Metaphysical Shitposting, a woolly, loose-limbed journey thru #kosmische, #ambient, #noise and #soundscape. #Experimental and #weird but always a delight (I hope).
Same deal, listen & redeem the codes via the link at lower right
I had intended to raise the cost of Metaphysical Shitposting to my normal full-album cost of $7 when I released the 8th track, but then ... I forgot. LOL. I also intended to let people know before I did it, so they could still sneak in for the $5 price. So, anyway, next time I add a track, it'll go to $7, but for now it's still $5! So go grab it!
Or just give it a listen. Honestly, that's just as nice for me. Or nearly so 😉
This Friday, I'll be in #Chicago to play a #noise / #experimental show with my good friend Henna Chou, a cellist from Austin. We're at Elastic Arts at 8pm...check the flyer for more info.
If you come out, please be sure to say hi! I love meeting Mastodonians in the wild. <3
And if you or any of your Masto pals are around Chicago and like this sort of thing, a boost would be appreciated!
#NowPlaying - japanese underground #noise heroes, one of the only official albums released while they were active (in the '90s, 20 years after it was recorded). the blown-out live cuts don't grab me here, though i love them elsewhere. the studio side from '69 gets way more play in this house, dreamy/folky psych that i don't think the band ever embraced again. great liner notes too, pointing at the kazoo parts as evidence of mizutani's fondness for #zappa. https://lesrallizesdenudes.bandcamp.com/album/67-69-studio-et-live@vinylrecords
Interesting article about noise sensitivity. Very recognizable. I couldn't live without my noise-cancelling headphones and earbuds anymore. They've made my life less stressful.
So much to do, but can't stop watching & hacking on this pseudo fluid sim every now & then... 🤩 Probably will develop this further into a tutorial for https://thi.ng/shader-ast
I'm getting my music on PeerTube, and here's the next one! It's for 2 pianists, 2 percussionists & "no-input mixer." The outputs of the mixer are connected back to various inputs, and I can unmute various channels to get feedback. The percussionists are playing a homemade speaker instrument, megaphone & more.
