Video Highlights

 

Here are a few noteworthy music videos collected.  Everything else can be found via my YouTube page

They'll Come For You

 

An interesting exercise demonstrating how a new monosynth I had obtained (Analog Solutions Leipzig-s) has some gritty, fat low-end basslines that reminded me of Nitzer Ebb, an EBM artist from the 80s/90s and so I did this track in tribute, only somewhat seriously.

Bluetooth God

 

A somewhat angst-driven industrial track that came out of nowhere, but I was quite happy to introduce my newly acquired DSI Mono Evolver synthesizer to the rest of my arsenal.  I shot various footage from driver seat of my car, from train tracks to even going through a car wash.  This track aims to express some idea about religion and technology, false idols and whatever else one can read into it.  The taped up eyes were inspired by a small budget movie called "Ink."

 

Analog Journey to the Moon

 

At the dawn of my hardware synthesizer acquisitions, this video captures my enthusiasm for live electronic production.  Not a masterpiece by any means, but still fun to see where I was headed in my early stages of gear lust.

People Running

 

Another video that is humbling to share, and in fact I kept hidden from the public for much time but now I look back at it with some intrigue as it was all improvised and just... well, I think my YouTube description said it best: "improvised - very weird performance.  Not sure what's going on here, it was an odd mood.  Just a documented moment of being musically stoned."

Night Drive

 

This little synth jam is a great demonstration of the elegance of warm, analog synth sounds.  While it's easy to crank filters up with distortion, etc., sometimes taming the beast can yield much more favorable results.  I think this muted, somewhat dissonant patch I did on the Korg MS-20 is one of the best sounds I've created with it.   

Combined with some footage of my travel through Baltimore one night.

en-TRANCE

 

Somehow this trance-like jam I did ended up being posted on a 3rd party site which led to a flood of hits and responses (many negative) but my performance and effort is worth sharing.  With over 5,000 hits, I say it was worth it.
