Radio vs. Static

A literal translation of a subjective experience

Radio Vs. Static was born out of the frustration of the quality of today's music. After scanning the FM dial numerous times over many years, I decided that co-channel interference was more aesthetically pleasing than the over-hyped and generic pop-culture music. Over the years I've slowly migrated from rough live improvisations using analog synthesizers and recording equipment, to more refined and dense digital productions. Recently I've begun to explore the capabilities of software synthesizers/effects and the complex sounds they are able to produce. I enjoy listening to bands that challenge and push the evolution of music as a concept in our modern and global culture and try to do so myself. I hope you enjoy my music as much as I enjoy writing it (^_^).... -Skipton

"Insider"

"Insider" is probably the most abstract piece I've done to date. I wasn't intending on it becoming the horrific monster that it is, but as most monsters that end up confined to the rules of it's maste...

"Fault Condition"

Fault Condition" was a song that was desperately waiting to come out. I think that if I hadn't gotten it out soon it would have burst out of my chest. It falls into the classic MS-20/TR 808 Radio vs...
