From the vaults [part3]
Under the bury&disinter moniker I put out a split EP with Somme on Static Caravan and Cactus Island. Before the offer of the split I had been toying with releasing it myself but didn't think there was enough material. I thank my good friend Robin Saville of Isan for the beautiful remix he provided and hang my head in shame that it never saw the light of day...

From the vaults [part2]
Another retro slab of mp3. This was probably the last Wauvenfold track Tom and I ever "finished". It never saw the light of day officially tho it did make its way onto our MySpace.

Surround Panner
The Surround Panner was created for a multimedia show by the band Cipher. As the show was to take place in a cinema they wanted to make use of the surround system in the venue. To this end I built a Pd patch that allows the user to move 2 channels of sound around a 4 speaker set-up individually using joystick controls.

skuffle
Skuffle is an installation commissioned by the birobox workshop project. Birobox perform music using live sampling, loop pedals etc... I wanted to make a piece that would reflect this method of working in some way...
The result is Skuffle, software that remix's live audio inputs.
The Skuffle program consists of 3 samplers and 3 sequencers, each sampler grabs a new sound from an input (in this case sounds captured from the main room of the event, mainly bands and DJ's) and plays this sample back according to its sequencer.
The sequencers themselves combine a few methods for generative composition.
