Recent events have sparked me to change my musical venturing from the somewhat pathless olt project to a more vivid, uncharted area for myself in what I’ve chosen to term Transmissions. I work predominantly with live, processed feedback from my home computer run through Ableton Live, as well as bass and guitar feedback to create a space for listening. Not many people actually want to listen to me ramble with feedback for 20 minutes or so, but I want to meet every single person that does.
olt signified a transition, from trying to make music unsuccessfully to suddenly having an output and making multiple pieces of music at a time. Stepping back to look at it now, it was a very formative period and I feel as though I’m moving more into a collaboration/live setting, incorporating the self-generated noise into a room with other self-generating noises.
I hope to include these creations in classwork that I’m doing for my Bachelor of Theatre Production at the VCA, keeping the ball rolling in terms of output and also still releasing, hopefully at some point, the planned split 3″ CD release with Reuben on my good friend Damien’s LaMachine label. He’s not had the best time of late and I wish him the best.
If you have any work that you need a soundscape for, please let me know. I’d really love to incorporate some foley sound into my practice too.
