As mentioned in my last blog post, the last few years have been strange ones, with lots of limbo and lots of waiting. Well one of the more exciting things that I was waiting for was Amplifiers & Explosions, a…
I like to picture that there are an infinite number or realities, all running in parallel. The entirety of my existence, everything I have ever known is but one of these. I represent a single point on this infinite line.…
Here are a couple of performance videos using an approach I’ve just recently started calling Light Vomit. What you see in the video is a combination of automated processing (via The Party Van/Cut Glove) with a variety of DMX light interactions and behaviors.…
Very happy to post this full-length version of iminlovewithanothergirl.com. Even though I’ve talked about the piece several times, and have posted multiple versions of it, I didn’t have a full-length ‘studio’ version of it. Until now. Behold: It was an…
I’ve been working on a duet project (me & you) with Sam Andreae for well over a year now. We started shortly after he moved back to the UK after spending a couple of years in Scandinavia. It started off…
The .com pieces are a series of pieces I started in early 2013 which are centered around snare drum feedback and form/memory as composi(/improvisa)tional material.

Spent the last three days in the studio with Pierre Alexandre Tremblay for our second album together. Some crazy amazing stuff. I’m very much looking forward to this one coming out. If all goes well it should be later this…
Finished a new piece a couple of days ago. This one was quite difficult as it required me to work in a very different way than I normally compose. First, here is the piece:
New project. A Greater Horror It’s a trio of piano, electric (fretless) bass, and drums. Sort of post-jazz meets math-rock meets contemporary classical meets electronics.
After meeting and playing with Hervé Perez back when The Noise Upstairs’ Sheffield night started in early 2010 we got to talking about doing a recording together. It took a bit to work out the logistics of when/where and all…
So many many exciting things in the works. I will list some of them, in no particular order. A trio record with Ray Evanoff (of Atemnt) and Iain Harrison that has been recorded and is in the process of being…
I am very excited to finally present “I AM YOUR DENSITY”. This CD has been in the pipe for over a year, being sidetracked by Drum & Bass and Jew Point Owe. It is finally done, and it is a…
I am very excited to present “Drum & Bass : And The Horse You Rode In On”. This is a duo CD with PA Tremblay that was recorded in early 2009. We shared a stage in 2008 and after exchanging…
