Artist History
i've been listening to a lot of aphex twin: ambient works, moby, leftfield, underworld, chemical brothers, radiohead, and some dead kennedys.
i run a 48 track recording studio in brooklyn, and when a friend laid down some great drum tracks, i asked to st art working with them. i would sound design the drums, loop them, and then start free associating parts over top. whatever came to mind--sometimes i started with guitar, sometimes with bass, sometimes with sequenced synths or sound effects.
one of my f avorite sessions was having a couple of beers, cranking the drums through a pa in the live room, hitting record, and playing LOUD, sloshy guitar like i was a sonic god. no thinking, just going for whatever fell in. and a lot fell out--but it was freeing, because for 5 minutes of junk, there were some cool, very new things i never would have come up with otherwise.
that became the method for the recordings. quick associations, blurting it out, mixed with judicious editting, and, in some cases, very con sidered lyric writing.
i wanted the feel to be big, raw, and strange. and cool. i like it. I hope you do, too.l |
