Ok, so like when I was twelve, I ran away and decided to live on the streets of Hollywood…

  1. That was a nice audio piece. Can you share more?

    1. heh, loads more – just gotta dig them out of hiding off old hard drives and CDROMs. Stay tuned, I’ll drop the beat a couple more times before the month is out. (:

  2. Those old analog synths are really neat. More fun to use and repairable, unlike the digital ones that lock the user into what the designer wanted.

  3. Those are the coolest circuit boards I’ve ever seen. I glad you opened it up and took pics!

  4. Really enjoyed the “Runaway” piece. I love the way the music wraps around that strange, convoluted story (the sort of weird stuff you’d overhear on a bus or a train) and leaves it behind – as if the music is breaking free and running away from the story.

    1. There was a significant chunk of the 1990’s where I carried around a battery-operated Marantz tape recorder and that old Canon half-pixel digicam to a lot of local bar shows where friends of mine played in their bands. I picked up a lot of interesting recordings then, and later in the early oughts used them in mixes I did at parties. It’s funny now as I turn the half-century mark I get to utilize all of that material as grist for the blog. Kind of remixing the remixes, if you will. :D

  5. Old-school analog… You can’t duplicate that flavor with a digital box.

    Agent T.W. Lee sends…
