So, I thought I had lost this mix one day, but thank goodness I found it on my computer. This is unique in that the beat comes from my old casio keyboard that has preset drum loops with some auto-fills and different drum sounds I could alter when the beat is playing. I recorded a scratching sound on the synth at the same time the beat was playing, and then added several other layers with both the casio and synth.

MEAT! :: Free Music Podcast

This track is a result of a improvised jam session with Anthony Shawn and myself (Jeremy Scott). We jammed for a couple hours one night in the new studio and recorded some cool sounds. This one is a pretty simple little groove with a cool bass line. The MEAT! of the song is about 1:50 into it.

In the past, we’ve recorded tracks in layers, starting with the beat and then adding synthesizers sounds on top. A couple of these tracks I’m talking about are Concrete and Fruity. Fruity being one of my favorite out of the two. So, we are revisiting this experiment with Anthony Shawn and myself, and calling the project Old Jessup, but this time, we’re coming up with this stuff live. Stay tuned for more of Old Jessup.

This is a recording of me learning a new instrument. I purchased a copy of Ableton Live to play around with and as soon as I learned the where the gas pedal was, I went ahead and turned “record” on and this is what happened.

I love mad scientist experiments. I feel like I just created a monster.

This one is a strange novelty I was playing around with. The entire piece is done only using the text-to-voice features built into Mac computers. No additional effects were used.

Haywire Transmission :: Free Album Download

Here’s another free album download, Haywire Transmission.
Haywire Transmission is a collection of electronically written pieces that I was working on before I joined the chilljam.com project. After the dissolution of my previous band, Stars Burn Out, I needed to find a new creative outlet. I didn’t really know any other musicians that were available and accessible. So I picked up a copy of FL Studio and started playing around with writing music with my computer for the first time.
When I joined chilljam.com, I found ways of layering these song parts in a manner so that I could trigger them in our improvisational environment. Many of our earliest sessions involved quite a few of these songs, however, we were not regularly recording during that time so many of those original jams are lost to time.

To download the album:
1 Go to the Haywire Transmission Listen :: Album page.
2 Scroll down past the player and you’ll see a link labelled “Download this Album”.
3 Simply click on this link and the album is yours, complete with the album artwork.

Street Corner is something I was putting together for the film we’ve been working on.
We’ve hit some delay with the film production but I thought we could go ahead and release the track anyway as a separate release.

“Minimal” is the word here.

I was shooting for something with a dark, quiet mood without being drawing too much attention. Something that could work a feeling in the background without interfering too much with the visuals that would be showing on the screen.
