About Me

No instruments or synthesisers of traditional form were used in the production of these tracks, the sounds originate from algorithms, distortions of environmental noises, and from electronic equipment such as long wave radios and mobile phones. These signals have then been processed by techniques including ring modulation, pitch shifting and micro-fragmentation, often to the point where their origin can no longer be discerned.

The intention is to produce sounds that lay between the rhythmic and the chaotic, and to experiment with the psychoacoustic effects of making common sounds periodic.
