bodyfishers
This is meant to evoke being chased at night in a 1970s city. [more inside]
You're So Dangerous!
An upbeat ditty about falling in love, blah blah blah. Cobbled together during my currently-on-hiatus 52 weeks project. Inspired by Holiday-era Magnetic Fields. [more inside]
The Fall Season
I wrote this on a train going into the city. [more inside]
Took to it Like Water
The bones of this song were a proposal for a corporate jingle I was writing... [more inside]
synthesizer post
just havin a play
Petrichor
So this is another song, audio is taken directly from the youtube video here. This is a live performance, did a session in the lighting hire and install company I work for over the weekend. This video forms part of a competition entry for our band. [more inside]
Reasonable Excuse
Piano, guitars and drum Instrumental, some unresolved tension. [more inside]
Small Speakers
Something fairly new. This is two of us playing live, me on bass and singing, and synth and drum machine from Magnus. [more inside]
xmas arp
merry synthmas
Hey Moon
Based on the John Maus version of Molly Nilsson's original.
Needles and Fire
A song about alternative histories and intangible futures.
seasonal swells
bit of a chord sesh
Embark!
I figured out how to use the arpeggiator on my op1 (actually the 'endless' sequencer). Brings to mind seeing out from the home village on an epic quest.
Return to Maridia
My train rides lately have been spent either a) playing with my synthesizer, or b) playing through Super Metroid on my phone. This captures pretty nicely the feeling of wandering a submerged subterranean maze, looking for secret side tunnels while kinda low on life (though with a couple energy tanks in reserve).
solo correctly
Some synth experiment from the vault...2nd half goes more analog...
Goblin Rip-off please help
At 0:32 I start ripping off a Goblin riff and I can't find the song that I am ripping off. It's not off of Roller or Profondo Rosso... Any insight would be appreciated.
3 kids on the square
the big synth at the beginning is live-performed on a Roland JX-8P on the patch called "Van Halen"!!!
savory for me
Just an experiment of guitar electronic fusion I've been playing with. I'm planning on doing an album-full of these types of songs soon.
The Guardian of Phobos
Piano vs. Electronics. Kinda epic even though it's not all that long! [more inside]
Whoa
From the Prehistoric EP (2008)!
Hot Collie Bounce
You Can't See It
My son asked me to record his heartbeat for some school thing a few months ago.
I had this heartbeat lying around so I added some Moog to it and Bob's your uncle it became a synthpop song.
A Legacy Denied
Finally finished my latest project, VOIDBREAKER. Ominous space synths, gritty breakbeats and a consciously gritty production. This is the fourth track from the EP just released on Spotify. [more inside]
Blank Maps (Cold Specks cover)
Got a MIDI controller, which I'm superdy duper excited about, and figured I'd put it to work by fulfilling Greg Nog's Mefi Cover Challenge, covering Cold Specks' Blank Maps. Quick 'n dirty.
Pool Rules
A loud, frenetic jam in F#, dancing between half-time/double-time, with synth slap bass!
a new kind of beat
No drum beat or melody. Just some interlocking synth arps. For the Sunday crowd.
Snow Drift
It was snowing and what better to do than mess with the arpeggiator? [more inside]
Robot Bambi II: The Return of Robot Bambi (Big City Nights)
Game Night
I just loaded up Ubuntu Studio with some soft synths, and recorded this CarrotAdventure-inspired piece. It came out sounding like a game show theme, hence the name.

Resistor - Peace on Earth
Have a merry Synthmas with this peaceful electronic soundscape from the Men's Snarehouse. [more inside]
Resistor - Uni
An upbeat synthwave / retrowave instrumental. [more inside]
Lama (Malcolm Holmes' OMD Remix) by @Ummagma
Just as the seasons can see a categorical change in all the features embodied in this one unifying phenomenon we call 'the weather', so too can a song be totally turned on its head from the original version, doing a near about-face.... that is what happened to this track in this remix by Malcolm Holmes, famous for his participation in legendary synthpop group Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark (OMD). [more inside]
Turquoise Migration
Piano, strings, and electronics on a journey across a strange, wide landscape. [more inside]
Road Race
Instrumental with big tunes and riffs, and a driving cadence that's perfect for cycling (especially if the weather should force you to ride indoors). Bandcamp download (with artwork).
Bivball Instrumental
This is a short song I wrote to accompany my brother's ad for his new iphone game. (Bivball is the name of the game).
Fun project with short turnaround. It's a little clunky, but on the one millionth listen it suddenly levels up to "pretty good" (try it, you'll see). Comments welcome. Thanks for listening.
I. Tell Me Again
I put together a short EP (I'm calling it Earth and Sky) that loosely orbits around two maybe-related stories. This is the opening track. [more inside]
Malkop
Retro, funky, electro
Men's Retreat
New recording of an old song with the following Garageband synths: "hip hop kit", "pop flute" and "shimmering harpsichord" (IIRC). Song about good friends who have, by now, all moved away. I'd love any thoughts on this. [more inside]
Coma
As in comet. Carbon 7, doing the free-form space jazz thing, again. [more inside]
Paranoid Shepard
This is an endlessly rising Radiohead cover vignette; a section from Paranoid Android rises a whole step and repeats itself, and does so again, six times total, before returning to where it started, as a kind of large-scale take on the Shepard tone. [more inside]
The Golden Age (Beck cover)
A synthed out, vocoded take on Beck's extremely non-synthy song off of Sea Change, as an excuse to fiddle around with Reason 8. [more inside]
Resistor -- Cordless Phone
Greetings to the Unknown
Fast catchy tune with a thumping chorus - but the piano takes the star turn in the verses. [more inside]
Separate Ways
Pensive piano interspersed with electronic outbursts and a broad, burbling middle section. [more inside]
Resistor - Can't Believe
I can't believe you've done this.
Electro-dance-pop.
[more inside]
Falling (Theme from Twin Peaks)
In honor of tomorrow's blu-ray release, I recorded a new take on the classic Lynch/Badalamenti theme, "Falling," from Twin Peaks. [more inside]
Collisions
Uptempo, hard-driving instrumental for synth+piano, with elements of trance and classical. First track on my Anthem of the Heart EP. [more inside]
In A Soylent Way
Carbon 7 doing our mellowest, jazziest thing yet. Joined again by flautist Fred Mitchim. Kept to a pretty sleek 9 minutes. [more inside]
Robot Sunrise
Another song from my newish free EP of quirky electronic cheese, "Part Time Drum Machine." I sort of picture a mechanical sunrise operated by heavy robots intent on bringing light joy. You know. [more inside]
Metric Groove
From my new (free!) EP 'Part Time Drum Machine', this is an instrumental keyboard-based track driven forward by a cheap synth bass and Casio-ish beats. A different kind of style than you may have heard from me before. [more inside]
