about

Volume 4 of the Guantanamo Patchbay series highlights a trio of single-take jams with an emphasis on 'zones over tones' (or 'drifts before riffs').

'Atypical Weather Patterns' and 'In The Blink of an Eye' were recorded back-to-back in a single day last summer in an attempt to integrate my modular into a broader noise set-up. They were recorded live with no overdubs, but were multi-tracked for some minor trimming / tweaking. The respective gear footprint of the sessions were spread-out across a sizable room and was ultimately characterized by my frantically running between multiple set-ups to keep the train moving to the best of my ability.

Venation Study, on the b-side, is a 15min synthesis exercise constructed/directed entirely by simple data abstractions and logic applications based on measurements taken from a sampling of leaves from rural New York. It was premiered in a philosophical thought-experiment turned reality at The Dark Outside Festival, broadcast via low-power FM transmission to transistor radios scattered throughout a dense forest in Scotland in the fall of 2015. Out of respect to the organization, this track will not be available in full for streaming/download, only an excerpt. The full version is only available via the small edition of c30s.
