Miscellaneous (2006)

Collages of the stuff at the edge of the event horizon.


Live at Nowhere (2004):   [download mp3s]

This blend of space jazz,  rock and drum 'n bass puts everything I've been loving since college together in one wild package. It started with tracking Jimmy Gilbertson, the drummer from Terrene, and me on bass. Then I chopped up the beats, added keyboards, and recorded Ryan Leyva on guitar and Zach Price on congas. Inspired by FCS North, 78 Nova, and Squarepusher, this would have been my dream band if I hadn't left Seattle.

San Diego Sessions (2000-2002)

The start of what later became Vent Studios, these were all made in my bedroom in San Diego on Park Blvd during my years at MusicMatch.

  • Bezerk - I was living with a drum 'n bass promoter, and this is an experiment in crushed glass.
  • Bezerk (Palette mix)
  • SubSub - Too fast to be drum n bass really, but my favorite of the bunch.
  • Dub
  • About You - Sophy wrote the lyrics and melody, I did the backing music. Trip-hop.
  • Quicker On The Draw
  • Chrysalis - Juju is the epitome of the earth mother raver solistice girl.

San Francisco Acid EP (1999)

I can still see the computer monitor sitting on the cardboard box in my bedroom in the apartment half a block from Haight and Ashbury. I'm striding around on the phone working on my startup, SphereMedia, just out of school. And I got Acid 1.0 and started making breakbeat-tempo electronica.

Stanford Gumbo - 1998

  • Deconstructing Miles - My first time playing with an MPC2000.
  • Space Madness - Ambient spooky electronica.
  • Triple - Trip-hop instrumental in three parts.
  • Volcano - Hyper and strange. Includes a sample of my favorite instrument from the Batak album - it's a double reed mini-oboe from Sumatra that sounds like an electric guitar.
