Two recent articles

I recently posted two articles for a forum I manage: a Granular Synthesis and Microsound Primer and a Euclidean Rhythms Primer. Both of these topics have been of interest to me and made their way into my work in the past year, so I wanted to collect some resources I’ve found helpful. Check them out and drop me a line to share techniques, clips, finished tracks or if you’re interested in more.

Bonus podcast mix: Max for Live/Monome experiments

I’ve been exploring Max for Live and my new monome grayscale 64 using Stretta’s MFL Monome Suite and thought I would share some of the results. Max For Live/Monome experiments (31:00min, 51 MB MP3) is an aimless mix of four different pieces I’ve been working on:

  1. Slim demo, slightly eerie and broken
  2. Silver Keys demo, distorted and glitchy
  3. Monome jam session, starts overly busy but finds its groove halfway through before finding maximum chill
  4. Spectral Drone demo, a cinematic space drone
