A little something I’ve been kicking around.

S. Ex. no. 31
Good Morning. Here is a sampling of the week’s audio work, featuring a detuned Ibanez Talman bass and an Ibanez ArtCore semi-hollow body guitar. This is the pedal board set-up that I used for the Animation Adjacent Variety Show.
S. ex. no. 29: I like spiders
I think this one speaks for itself.
S. ex. no. 28 “About to Fall Apart”
My drums are in the basement, and I often stop and bang out something when, for example, I’m going to switch the laundry. Or, to pick up beach towels. Or whatever. I usually put my phone on the floor below my snare and record.
And that’s where this drum part came from.
The guitar was recorded one evening a few days later. I tried placing the two together and found they work well.
The blue water effect was film with my phone and an ashtray. And all the animation are scraps and stuff from my iPad that I stitched together. Thanks for watching!
Elvis Presley’s Oven
Continuing the “Celebrity Oven” series, I bring you Elvis Presley’s oven, from Graceland. As with Edward Gorey’s oven, I took the photo myself.
We stopped in the Memphis Drum Shop while visiting. They have an expansive cymbal room, and limited customer service. I was able to capture a quick 20 second iPhone recording using their demo drum set (ironically using no cymbals) completely unsupervised.
S.Ex. no. 25 Proof of Concept
This was just to see how looping drums mic’d with one microphone for a live performance would go, and it worked out!
