Some new work in progress, this is a very rough live recorded track. More coming soon. The excerpt and inspiration for this is from Japanese Lullaby by Eugene Field.

Sleep, little pigeon, and fold your wings,–
Little blue pigeon with velvet eyes;
Sleep to the singing of mother-bird swinging–
Swinging the nest where her little one lies.

Monomeet 2009

Monday, March 2nd, 2009

I had the absolute pleasure of attending the 2009 Monomeet in Princeton at the weekend. Although I didn’t perform, I was able to see some amazing sets by some truly talented individuals. Along with meeting Brian Crabtree (creator of the Monome), Edison (finger ninja of the Monome) and a huge bunch of the east coast monome community. It really was an amazing day. Videos of the event are up on Vimeo at Monomeet 2009. Finally a big thank you to those who arranged the day, and made it possible for us all to meet at the Terrace Food Club, in Princeton – it was a total experience.

Binary 10.a (snow mix)

With 14+ inches of snow this morning, I thought I’d make a snow mix of Binary 10, which I’ve just finished. The Binary album is almost finished, with 10 tracks in the bag and only 2 or 3 needing some subtle tweaking to get them finished off. I’m aiming for mid to end of this week to have it finished, behind schedule for the RPM Challenge, but unfortunately “Monomeet 2009″ in Princeton this weekend ate up a good days worth of work. This track sounds nothing like Binary 10, aside from the intro.
