Is the moth sample the one that starts around 1.19? Either way, really sick piece!

That BASSSSSS. This is the soundtrack to sleep paralysis. The granular vocal that starts at 1:19 makes my spine crumple.

YAY - yeah, I love that vocal sound. OMG, sleep paralysis? Now I have a new thing to be afraid of... Sorry about your spine tho. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

nope, that's a voice.

check out 2:03, the rhythm layered over on the bass. The shade was a four-sided column of maybe 9-10" height. He got in there and started banging around. I put an alligator-clipped stereo mini mic pair on opposite top edges and hit record. I got this thumping like someone slapping an upright bass, and then "tingggggs" whenever he hit the bulb. It was absolute magic. I ended up making a quad piece from it, essentially placing the audience inside the shade. Only performed it once. Still one of my fave recordings.

lol no. But it was rad. I go onstage with empty samplers (Samplr on one iPad, SpaceCraft on the other) and just start grabbing stuff. Great week - played 3/21 with drummer Bill Harris from Chicago – that one got wild, total blast - and Thursday night with Ted Gordon, who is touring to promote his new book [I]The Composer's Black Box: Making Music in Cybernetic America[/I].
