here is some of my solo sound work. i've uploaded some sounds here:
SLIGHTLY HELPFULphilosophy: i focus on repetition and the slow decomposing/recomposing of loops and samples. i'm indebted to the nature of the effect: taking a sound, and recontextualizing that sound. multiple effects can completely remove the sound from what it once was, creating layers of sound all within one sample. multiple samples at once create more layers. providing feedback delay to the entire output adds one last volatile layer to the sound.
equipment i use:
BOSS SP-303 SAMPLERthe cradle for the entire process. samples, recontextualizes, and loops any source i want. i draw most of my samples from old records, field recordings, and a bass synthesizer.
BOSS DD-6 DIGITAL DELAY PEDALthis is extremely integral. i use the delay to create feedback loops that every sound i make dumps into. the feedback loop is tempo-overlaid (sometimes) with the sampled loops to create a pulse. the dd-6 often creates sounds that i can't necessarily control, giving the sound output organic/spontaneous life.
BOSS SYB-5 BASS SYNTHESIZERi "play" this pedal by holding the cable in my mouth to create and manipulate synth waveforms. this often feedbacks into the delay loop.
BEHRINGER EURORACK 802a simple 4-track mixer, yet this provides a funnel for any input i wish. in a way, the mixer embodies the entire philosophy of my music inn that it creates a plane in which to manipulate and combine previously seperated conditions.
