Bee drone, May 16 2016, Noon - 12:06pm
For an installation at Moogfest in 2016, I put a bunch of sensors in a beehive and used the data to generate drone music. The sensors included air temperature and air pressure and some touch and light sensors to sense when bees were entering and exiting the hive. This is a six minute excerpt from an 8 hour recording which is available at Bandcamp (it's free!)
Sketch for Triangle Waves and Flute
A short piece on C Dorian, focusing on the tones C, F, and Bb. Recorded in Supercollider.

Excerpt from the extended Drone Poem, Heavy Storyteller Suite. [more inside]
Refuge in the boughs of the ancient oaks
way more fantasy/forest synth than dungeon synth this time for sure, but the story continues. might have hit the idea of a lullaby too hard on the nose. [more inside]
A Broken Clock on a Starlit Beach
Mostly electronic. An increasingly oppressive cloud of ambience over a basic beat.

LF System (acoustic ft Silk) and The Strokes
Corridor
Today's Looptober loop is blatantly Metroid-inspired. [more inside]
Shining Tor at Twilight
Broke my own rule and drenched this one in effects and keys. Very New Age. Not sure I approve of it.
Rescue
Optimistic little song using Just Intonation [more inside]
For JJ
Analog synth + vocoder
For Each One To Discover (AO)
One of my favorite vocal samples (mid century Henry Miller interview found on Archive.org) with some little pings and big booms [more inside]
Ask your body
Another AO jam - this time using a cellular algorithm to derive a melody and a few drum triggers that I mess with and layer under some drones. [more inside]
Accretion
Another Ambient Office Project, this one involving a custom 4-voice sequencer that involves the generation of melodies and then handing them off between each voice, in and out of sync to produce polyrhythms. [more inside]
Naturelle 2
I bought an old Steinway upright recently, on which I've been making pieces like this, which I call "naturelles."
Three more naturelles on Bandcamp, here: https://raygull.bandcamp.com/album/naturelles-1-4 [more inside]
Ambient Office : Twin Special
Two sequencers that randomly diverge from a programmed melody, while I try to keep control of them by resetting the values. [more inside]
Searching the Bogs
Literally, a seven-minute transition between two chords. [more inside]
Ambient Office - Feedback Edition
After reading way too much about cybernetic theory I put together a feedback patch to provide some period-appropriate music to my Serge system. [more inside]
The Foreman
Another ambient office jam - some granular textures and filter pinging over a slow chord progression. Needed something relaxing, then got too relaxed and needed a bassline. [more inside]
Accept Advice
Playing with feedback loops with a slowly shifting pattern. [more inside]
In the Castle
My kids complained they couldn't dance to any of my music so I threw and impromptu office dance party with them. [more inside]
Midnight
An all-analog Ambient Office jam [more inside]
Over the Fence
Bamboo forest / digital zither / bass loops [more inside]
Signal Tower
Semi-ambient modern synth pad instrumental with minimalist electronic bass, reversed electric guitar, and some pretty and deliberate vinyl crackle-ish soft static noise and a gentle mix of treated samples. Maybe sort of cinematic? [more inside]
Tense
Choral piano with granular drums [more inside]
Flawless Victory

Guardian
More songlike modular AO entry - with a heartbeat! [more inside]
Ambient Office v8 - Plod
Apparently my mood impacts the song that develops... [more inside]
Ambient Office v7: Backyard
A field recording of my yard activities, set to some dark drones. [more inside]
Ambient Office v6 - Find Your Rhythm
Working with found sound - in this case a snip from an old interview with Henry Miller sliced, looped and generally destroyed. Productivity advice from a dead man. [more inside]
To All Our Known Energies
Downtempo ambient generative probabilistic instrumental. [more inside]
Ambient Office v5: LoopLoopLoop
Three looped instruments with different beat counts between sequencing and looping. [more inside]
Subbing - Ambient Office v4
This week's ambient office featured polyrhythmic drums-bass-slewed marimba-and-sonar pings jam, songified here with some knob twiddling. [more inside]

Ambient Office v3: Pam Tam
Got so excited about playing with Euclidean rhythms after getting a new clock utility that I did a Friday/weekend AO edition. [more inside]
You Just Have To Pay Attention
Generative ambient piano + synths made in Sonic Pi. [more inside]
Wobbles & Drums
This week's ambient office jam, deeper and darker than last week. [more inside]
Rings and Marbles
I've been using a modular setup to produce background music in my office. This is me playing around with this week's patch.
lockdown feels ...
the isolation and confusion of a UK lockdown ...
Brittle Hope
Made this somewhat experimental ambient-ish piece last night, feeling a tiny bit of hope about the world. It's based on slowed-down samples of a hang-drum, with a keyboard part doing most of the rest. [more inside]
Wisdom Like Silence
Dark, ambient, noise, instrumental. Guitars, bass, programmed drums. [more inside]
StreamJam01
A bit of a collab that happened via an ill-formed idea for a twitch stream. User Carrot Adventure is in the mix. Can you guess where.
Pendopo Pod
