earcon's Funkiller CD is now available at at CD Baby.

These are great solo, art brut electro tracks made with the Elektron Monomachine synth.

One of the tracks on the CD is my drum and bass remix of the song "Minto." Twas posted here previously but this is earcon's new-and-improved remix of my mix:

"Minto (Tom Moody Remix)" [2.9 MB .mp3]

Also check out a re-release of an earlier earcon disc The Noise of Experiments (under his jenghizkhan alias). More doomy and ambient, with late night TV field recordings layered with crackling static and digital drones.

The completed version of something posted earlier. (Minor tweaks may still be done.) A work for oboe, bass clarinet, xylophone and laptop.

Update: Added and subtracted some notes, and removed the "room reverb," which was annoying me.

The samples from the Reaktor "Massive" groovebox are generic club stabs (heavily reverbed piano and organ chords, etc.) that are supposed to be further deformed by the software but I exported the map and have just been writing tunes for the samples. The compositional principle is obedience to a certain innate structure that is revealed through working (including "necessary" variations and puns).

A simple little ditty in 3 parts made with acoustic guitar samples, beatbox and various Rhodes and horn stabs. A bit reminiscent of Ryuichi Sakamoto's '80s digital stuff but much more basic.
