Ambient Show at the Replay in Lawrence KS July 10, 2010

It seems the Owl People have split the ambient and rock and roll projects into two different groups. This recording was the "ambient" version (for now it is nameless) with a drummer who went ape shit on a kiddy kick drum, a conga, and the floor. It wasn't ambient by my definition, but it was weird, and that is what matters. There were 5 of us, the drummer (aka Kurt), a koto player (aka Yuri), and the usual three deviants making synth noises. It was a fun way to spend a Saturday night.

We also a played a show at the Mokan Festival on July 8th that didn't get recorded. It was a quartet that was the same group as above without the drummer. Best

Owl People Show 5-24-2010 at the Replay in Lawrence KS

I played a show at the Replay in Lawrence Kansas as a member of the Owl People at the end of may.  We did 3 10 min-ish "songs" and included my two cohorts playing synth, loops, and other randomness while I messed with a mixer set up and played some hand drums.  It was pretty strange.  Below is the full video, and links to the mp3's.

sqrt(ur mother) live set @ Replay 12.22.09

here are some pics and video from a live set I played at the Replay in Lawence KS on 12.22.09. It was the first sighting of my electronic drum set that I built. I had a 3 piece trigger set, another single trigger hooked up to a 12" Jane Fonda Record that only made a gong sound (and I only hit it with a gong mallet to be dramatic), and the usual arsenal of midi controllers, delays, and feedback paraphernalia. All in all it was a real fine day. Also to note, I had a flight out of town for the holidays the next morn at 7am, so given the driving time to the airport, having to get there early, and the fact that I didn't leave the club until 2am, I didn't go sleep. Yet, it was still way worth it. On a side note, I was working on this kit in the warehouse that we turned into a club after the cops shut us down. Funny story about that place, some dude killed himself in that warehouse by running his car. After the club was finished, I worked on some drum building there, usually alone pretty late at night. Freaked me out.
