As of 30 May, Ovi Share Nokia is over

This means a bulk of the audio posted here will be gone by late spring.  Unless.

This is a sleepy blog now, with most of the current action going on the so-called annex on Tumblr.  Not sure when or if I'll reup the dead links. 

Given the odd environment online re hosting, audio sharity and whatnot--wherein whole domains get nuked whether or not files are indeed posted by their creators/copyright holders (um, any nosey visitors dropping by--this is my stuff I'm posting), it gives one pause.  The so-called cloud seems a noxious gas.

If I do reup, I'll try to simply replace old links/embeds with new, and leave the posts are they are but without pesky dead links.  And if so, I'll announce it's having been done.  Till then . . .

Balmonce Part-video

Balmonce Part

ye olde J-card

audible and otherwise

Much of what's going lately is ad hoc and such.

And posted here.

Rocker Wait

Rocker Wait


Screwdriver found in the road rocks in the strings of a beater acoustic as Stylophone, Monotron, other such abide with the cheep karaoke machine and Dora the Ex. echo.

Doppeltron Flip

This is a drone improv on Korg Monotron with some circuit bent Speak & Read and Speak & Spell somewhere in there. Actually the audio/video is overlaid, one bit being played much slower.

Turning Reed

Turning Reed


Bass, Kay acoustic and Stylophonic reediness.

Wither Thou Goest

Wither Thou Goest


A big production, even for its time of reverbosity.
Had meant to post it. But a glitch in the one of its kind master recording inspired notions of digital fixing, which mostly happened and slightly didn't. Accelerating only the procrastinating process.

So now's it posted with the rest.

Meantime, mostly non-songs are continually going up in the less archival Tumblr version of audiokayness. Stuff of Berna, Gleetchlab and Monotron & so on.

24 July 2010 Tape Trio No 2

Probably this needs no explanation. Handheld tape recorders record oscillators & stuff, rewind and playback said stuff. Video of the rewind & playback, including disembodied hand that rides the pause switch on the er, um, lead tape recorder.

Died Laughing

Died Laughing


Provisional super full-length title: Died Laughing At the Fat Lady At Buckroe Beach.

But without lots of context (the sort that music hopes to obviate if only to get straight to the mood of things) that may seem cruel or unPC or whatever else. Needless to say, the shorter Died Laughing gives it a broader reading at least.

Piezo'd tiny toy instrument is played slide and later used in a feedback loop. Other such piezo fun with toy spring reverb mics, battery springs and the like.

Don't laugh too hard.
