    Most recent video that I haven't shown here



    Made it while rewatching Inland Empire. I feel it shows.

    A nice man called Eclectic Warrior used a 1934 Danish stop-motion animation film to create a rather lovely video for Kemper Norton's Denaissance

    For the first time online, I've posted the entirety of my 1987 epic "The 'Pops' Science Story" in four parts on MySpace.

    A lo-fi mix of Casio samplers, guitar noise, abused drum machines, tape loops and a sci-fi narrative torn from the pages of the Weekly World News and Fortean Times, with fake news broadcasts over a bed of experimental noise. I produced it in a weeklong creative fugue on a four-track cassette deck, I released it on cassette as an "audio comic". (And 128 kbps MP3 is not much of a loss) I guarantee you've never heard anything like it.

    I think it's held up pretty well over 20 years.

    Figured it should have been a cult classic by now... Brian Eno liked it, called it "strangely addictive" and bought a copy for his daughter working at the BBC. Steven Grant always mentions it fondly. But I think I sold maybe a half-dozen copies over all.

    The Copyright Office called me when I submitted it - they wanted to know how to categorize it.

    I always wanted to release it in illustrated form... at one point imagining a rough, asymetrical, Ted McKeeverish look.

    Anyway, it's strange and unique and you can hear the entire thing now.

    I'm in a Portland, OR-based band called Jana Osta. We recently recorded our debut EP which is available on myspace. Think The Melvins versus Sonic Youth and Rush.

    Thanks for listening, guys!

    Quickie first draft, just guitar and vox. Not a new song, but a new recording. Hope to have a more filled out version next week. Doumbek, maybe mandolin, something in the bass range.

    Hypothetical question:
    this is a lie, but nevermind


    If I wanted to take a drum loop from one song, bass from another, then whack a couple of samples over the top - all from other fairly well-known songs, is there anyone here that could do that for me? Or is there a simple way for me to do it? I have garage band, but have never really even investigated what it can do.

    I'd like to be able to really just say... okay... clap and bass from Safety Dance, syth stab from Funkytown and the Godzilla theme dropped in occasionally... whack it all together, yeah? Except not necessarily those specific examples. Can that be done easily now?

    It is relatively easy to take a whole clip out of a song and sample/repeat it in Garage Band. It gets much more complicated (a.k.a. nigh impossible, at least with GB) to extract an individual track... say you've got a segment of drum/clap/synth from Safety Dance, and want to dump the synth bit and keep the drums/clap. Once it's bounced down to a single album track it's all one animal, and not designed to be separated. If it's a stereo track you can extract just the left or just the right, but not just the guitar or just the vocals.

    Okay, so what does it take?
  15.  (4916.15)
    you just need to find a clean solo of the bit you want. like a drum fill where the other instruments have dropped out. like izenmania says you can't (easily) remove other instruments from samples as it's all part and parcel of the mix but once you have found the individual sounds you want any sound editing software will easily allow you to build a tune from the individual samples you've made. Audacity is very easy to use for taking samples and for editing them together and it's free. Acid is also good but you'll have to 'find' a copy or pay a lot for it.

    it takes a bit of work but can be good fun when it comes together. this link is for a couple of tracks i did a year or so ago just for the hell of doing something utterly different from my usual music.

    In Garage Band I believe you can just drag and drop an audio file into an empty track and edit it down from there, but if not there ought to be an import function to pull it in. (I haven't used GB in about a year, so I'm a little rusty on it)

    Here's a section of some free improv my friends and I did yesterday:

    @celan - that was good to hear - nice one.

    Warren posting some EVP stuff reminded me of an ancient track put together in a dank Cornish bedsit when I was drinking too much and not going out with girls.
    It was made exclusively from EVP recordings ( hence the lack of a tune ) and is a miserable old thing. But it was fun remembering the hours of turmoil and absinthe-led cutting and pasting that led to its creation , so I stuck it on Youtube.

    I guess this falls into this thread...

    I've been tinkering with making insruments recently, have made a dulcimer out of an arts supply carry case and just finished my Steel Rod Box...





    there's more pics and a few sound samples here:
