"Level One" is probably my most mainstream creation to date. Think IDM meets electro meets circuit bent molded into a classy, quirky, beat infected tune you can sort of dance to.
5mb - mp3 128kps


"timeError" Call it sound art, minimal academic experimental, or hipnotic ambient whatever. This is a creation directly from my exploits of Reaktor, a modular soft synth for people who love steep learning curves and limitless possibilities. Dive deep into oscillators modulated by LFOs and 3 independent filters with just a touch of delicious noise.
6.8mb, mp3 160kps


"seed24A" So hip it hurts, seed24A features an ambient feel combined with dub-like drumbeats. Obscure voices and lots of synthetic colors with a touch of noise create a vivid atmosphere that's sure to please.
2.3mb - mp3 128kps


"Smoke Crack and Call Me" (radio edit) Some dude puts down his crack pipe, dials the phone and connects to my voice mail. Why? I dunno. What happens next is that I lift his voice, process the hell out of it and create a special tune around it. This fits more into the realm of psychedelic, dub, with a hint of bent and noise. SAY NO TO DRUGS - because you can act like a real idiot when you take them! You can almost feel the love, now can't you.
3.9mb - mp3 128kps


"Kitchen Sink" More sound effect than anything. It's my kitchen sink. Water starts, runs, then quickly shuts off. How fun is that? sinkrun.mp3 - 160kbps

Circuit Bending
No instrument is safe. No toy left unbroken! The quest for new sounds has led me to this - circuitbending. Also known as taking electronic devices apart and rewiring their guts in order to make bizarre, mutant noises that were never intended by the original designers.
