I’m getting lots of confidence boosts musically lately. A long-time collaborator said I had really turned a corner recently, another friend asked if I'd been studying music theory, and members of the Disquiet Junto community have been incredibly kind and supportive with feedback.
Y'all, this is what it's about. Let's make more art.

Also in Disquiet Junto news: I was profiled on disquiet.com and had the chance to share some thoughts about studio practice, the importance of keeping a schedule, and how naming things is actually pretty easy.

My vintage Korg M3R got some play last night, on a meditative yet unsettling track I've called “It Takes Two to Dissociate”. Also features slide steel, electric guitar with ebow, and organic vocals.

The only AI that I will tolerate in my studio came out in 1989

Oh hey, the Sudre's Violin track "A Foolish Consistency" appears in the current episode of Disturbing Dreams. You get a solid hour of dark ambient and experimental electronica-- why not listen as you work? (My track is #4.)

Miles of mycelia forming a network, a sort of internet for the forest, letting trees send messages to each other. What would the protocol be like? What might it sound like?
A response to this week's Disquiet Junto prompt.

I’m on this week's Dead Code podcast, talking about ethics, open source, and why you shouldn't make decisions based on the moral choices of the worst person you can imagine.

What better way to spend a Sunday evening than with a playlist of atmospheric drones?

@disquiet creates a playlist of each week's contributions from the community, so check out what the other interpretations were at https://soundcloud.com/disquiet/sets/disquiet-junto-project-0663

The prompt was to make music to accompany a spinning hard drive.

I've been traveling in the UK these past 2 weeks, so I thought I'd miss the latest Disquiet Junto prompt. But inspiration struck at a kitchen table in Manchester & there was no resisting it. I had no gear at all, not even a pair of decent headphones. Difficult constraint!
As I had to mix on laptop speakers, listening with or without headphones will be different experiences & I don't know which is "right”

Disquiet Junto 0657 was an invitation to compose a pice out of overlapping tones that start and stop suddenly. I did a mix of broken pads, then exported, reversed, and slowed down, before re-importing for an aural foundation. More layers of broken pads, a couple of glitchy leads.
Enjoy the stereophonic "Tails on Tones” with headphones or a good pair of stereo speakers.

Just playing around with the (new to me) vintage Yamaha TX802. Sounds pretty good for 1983!

Today I finished mixing (I think) “A Foolish Consistency”, track 2 on the new Sudre's Violin album. Check it out!

I’ve been a visitor in a different field this week (design research) and it's wild. I've learned a ton, managed to cross-pollinate some ideas, and connected some people who needed to know each other.
Really cool stuff can happen when you don't say no to weird opportunities.

This was fun: I composed the theme music for an upcoming tech conversation podcast. The 70s, 80s, 90s, 00s, 10s, and 20s are all represented in the music in some way shape or form, from the gear to the samples to the sound to the technique.
How many can you spot?

All of the tracks for the next Sudre's Violin album, "Seven Souls”, have been written and recorded at this point. I'm going to take my time with mixing and production, but this one is coming into the world a bit earlier than expected.

Eeeeeeeeek, #DroneDay is next Saturday! I’m looking forward to performing this new piece I've been working on.
What about you? How about making some sloooooooooow music next week?
