RPM 2009 - Feels Good (The Album)

Once again, I have attempted to make an album entirely in the month of February, for the RPM Challenge. Once again, I succeeded, and nearly drove myself mad. You can stream or download the files below.

I can always get you a hard (CD) copy if you prefer - that is, if you still roll that way. Just drop me a line.

Also - all questions, criticisms, praise, or confused rants are always welcome in the comments! I am open to any and all discussion about instruments, methods, cocktails, etc.

Love,

Calm Domino or Durr

More Nord Micro Modular fun. I forgot how much awesomeness is trapped inside that little beauty.

This is a single patch I made the other night... it's performed all with knobs, in one take. There is very little 'sequencing', as it were - mostly just lfos and oscillator sync doing tricky things. Some slight fx were added afterward in Live. Not terribly exciting, but fun to build.

Calm Domino or Durr by wi_ngo

I'm breaking out all the old toys and messing around, trying to prepare myself for RPM 2009.
I encourage all to try it - it's quite an experience.

Rock on.

Oh, and the title is an anagram. ;)

Fire and Ice

A little synth anthem using the beloved Nord Micro Modular, which I have taken to patching once again.

The drums are TR-606 samples by Goldbaby.

The toy piano is a Schoenhut 'Fancy Baby Grand' sampled by Kent Williams

Right Justify the Means by wi_ngo

Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I've tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.

-Robert Frost

Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

-Macbeth, Act V Scene V

And, Hey!

Also check out the collective I'm a part of, too. We also made an RPM album, all of us using Monome minimalist interfaces. I contributed a track and a remix of a remix (a 'double remix', if you will). Check it out here: miximal
