On my last two albums, I've slid down the path past minimalism and post-minimalism to slow, quiet piano music with changes. I'm still exploring the same compositional concepts, but with harmonic motion.
If you haven't heard the latest yet, you're welcome to check albums out: hollywood staircase and blue in blue in blue.
Here's the latest post from my blog! I discuss making "composite" sounds using FFT spectra for part of a current composition project.
My site is all hand-written, but I found that drafting as Markdown in my Joplin notebook, and then converting to HTML in the terminal makes me much more inspired to write.
A chamber orchestra composition I recently put on PeerTube! One of the percussionists is placing a contact mic on a large speaker to make flabby feedback; the pianist is using a contact mic/transducer against the piano strings; and there's lots of microtonal/noise sounds from the rest of the ensemble.
Welcome to it's only Saturday...two new pieces for you: variation of a variation, a soft pedal piano in Werckmeister III temperament and griffith observatory, an improvisation in five limit just intonation.
I'm setting up on PeerTube; here's another one of my compositions for MIDI keyboard, cello & percussion
The MIDI keyboard has DX7 E-PIANO 1 tuned to 19-EDO & glitchy "databending" samples. The cello has a wah pedal & small amp that feeds back with the cello's contact mic.
Hi everyone! I'm a composer & audio developer. I also like fountain pens, mechanical keyboards, software-defined radio, leftist politics & learning new things.
My music tends toward the glitchy, noisy, microtonal side of things, and I like to use Max/MSP and incorporate audio samples from my software-defined radio hobby. You can find my music at my site, SoundCloud & YouTube:
Here's one of my compositions I'm particularly proud of. It's for trumpet, trombone, percussion, and MIDI keyboard. There are cheesy Yamaha DX7 synth sounds, microtonal brass, and glitchy, distorted noise.
Just released a new short album / EP - "Trepanned Dandelion". Goes from tuneful electronic noise to electronic drone. Lots of microtuning. If you like such things, have a listen and hope you enjoy!
