Monday Night Mixer

It’s February 1st, and it may be my first day fully sober since a week before New Years, which means 2010 has just started for me. My New Years Resolution was to try less noise for a few weeks, but like the standard-fare rapidly ballooning facebook women who LOL to everyone about the weight they promised to keep off while posting pic after pic of themselves birthing Heinekens, I’m finding myself making nothing but noise.

My first actual recording of 2010 features me losing my mind and coming to with a sander wrapped in a t-shirt resting on an acoustic guitar with an ebo taped to the strings.

The Throw Away Music Series

I spend alot of time working on initial ideas that never end up evolving into anything usable for any project.  Normally I just pack these quick one to two hour experiments up into a folder, where it then lays forever forgotten.  I figured that instead of doing that, it could be cool to post them on a somewhat hidden blog instead.  Here’s tonight’s throwaway experiment. It utilizes a source sound of the spring of the cup holder in my car (when you expand it to allow for a drink to fit in), with basic drum tracks and a very basic oscillator.
