Sometimes I feel like I've been tasked to dig up lost and forgotten technology and try to figure out how to give it a new chance to shine.
This Wurlitzer C110 jukebox was rarely seen in the wild. I imagine it was released during that very tiny sliver of time in audio history between vinyl jukeboxes and CD jukeboxe...

Here is a photo I found today digging through the archives.
This was taken on our Space Cadet Headphone Concert around the time of the Space Cadet book/soundtrack launch.
My family attended this performance and my daughter really wanted to join me on stage so she just sat there and stared off int...

Traditionally around this time of year, I would be hosting some Music to Draw to sessions at some cozy venue in Montreal. It's one of my favorite events to host. Given the current lock down situation in our city, I am trying to set up the studio to do a live...

Here it is. The first Kid Koala mix tape. Remastered from the original 4 track cassette. Recorded using 2 turntables, a mixer and a Fostex 160 four track recorder in the 1990s.
These were turntable experiments made from a stack of vinyl records (some of which I'd had since I was a 3 years old). It was the summer of 1995...

I'm posting work in progress clips from the studio through Patreon Lens. These may include little clips of early mixes, clips of tracking instrument layers, brand new sounds I'm playing around with and discovering in the studio. It's just part of my exploratory process when I work. I'll be in the stud...

It was the middle of the night on a leap day. Everyone was asleep in the house. And I decided to hit LAUNCH on the Patreon page because it was one of those quiet moments of clarity (mixed with a healthy dose of trepidation).
I waited several minutes. crickets. A click into the digital abyss...

Your phone speaker needs more clavinet. *Studio Nerd Alert* "Oh Yeah!" sung through the same style EMS Vocoder used in the 70s Battlestar Galactica series for the Cylon voices. "Somebody Is Calling Your Phone" as voiced by the Type & Tell program on the Magnavox Odyssey 2 computer from 1978. I was just a...
