Land of Youth (May 1 2020) – FP Creative Remote Collaboration Project
I used Lempner’s recording, the beginning of Stuligross’s percussive recording and Cloyd’s spoken word recording. I used elastic audio and time stretching techniques to process Stuligross’s material to create large textures and I used simple layering and repitching techniques to process Lempner’s material to create droning harmonies. The arrangement is laced with heavy tones and ethereal and broken guitar loops, as per the usual case. The piece begins with a woodwind pedal point, courtesy of Lempner, along with a granular take on Stuligross’s offerings. The aggressive percussive strikes also come from Stuligross. The wash of white noise throughout the piece was achieved by excessively time-stretching Lempner’s open instrumental attack. Cloyd’s spoken word closes out the piece.
Dualism (March 6 2020)
Released in 2020 on Hivemind Records (UK). Jaipongan materials (provided by Riedl) formed the basis of a disparate, beat-driven composition. Vocal and rebab samples were processed using granular synthesis and elastic audio tools.
Disrupt/Construct (2019) Studio Album
Graham collected musical responses to a series of his own guitar improvisations from Neidhardt over the period of a year. Graham then crafted this album at the Elektronmusikstudion EMS in Stockholm, Sweden. Disrupt is a series of buckling themes that function as self-contained, shorter musical compositions. Construct presents a semi-improvised stream-of-consciousness piece that stands in contrast to the disruptive nature of its counterpart and divides into three self-contained musical movements.
