Deaf Yellow Fractal Deaf Yellow Fractal
I made this after my computer's speakers went kaput. It's a collage of various samples and I personally hold no responsibility for the overall sound.
Boxed Champagne Boxed Champagne
A song I did for one of my friends, showcasing my odd sense of humor.

This isn't even finished, but it seems like I couldn't fit any more tracks without my audio software stalling. If you listen very closely, there's a sample (about five seconds, chopped and screwed) from The Residents' 'Elvis and His Boss' from
Drunken Ramblings (demo version) Drunken Ramblings (demo version)
THE first song I ever recorded. I was all over the place and no one else was in the house, so I set my equipment in the living room and just started playing.

Albums
Have you performed in front of an audience?The band is still in its nascent stages, but I had a particularly startling experience singing Plastic Jesus with Andru Bemis. Sweat pouring down my brow, but always met with the fullest applause a small crowd can give. It pretty much overcomes my social anxiety disorder and turns that normally violent sensation into something really beautiful.
I also busk whenever I can, usually at new and exciting locations where no one will know who I am. However, I did do one local engagement just jamming with the members of Nanny Goat's Strut in Charlie's basement. That was nice, and I hope to do that again.
Your musical influences
After that concert, Bemis really had an influence on my music. His voice is somewhat of an acquired taste (very much like mine when I'm recoridng through a cheap dynamic mic), and he makes a modest (to use the term without a hint of irony) living recording Americana and channeling it occasionally into an original song that sounds very much at home with Guthrie and WIlliam Shakespeare Hayes.
Some of the stuff from Beck's Stereosympathetic Soul Manure and The Silver Apples (especially the vocal cuts) have been brought up in the same conversation in my music. Some really direct comparisons, and they seem to fit, really.What equipment do you use?
I have three guitars (Danelectro Dano-Blaster, an Indiana "stage acoustic" and a discount Valencia), a small off-brand keyboard I am in the process of circuit bending (as well as another cheap keyboard that runs off of mains). I am currently using my four-track cassette recorder while trying to find a more functional digital audio workstation.
