Dean Monkey and the Dropouts- sqrt remix

I recorded this band called Dean Monkey and the Dropouts late in the summer.  I did a space remix of one of the tracks "Blue Balls."  The EP just got released, odds are, this remix will only be released on this blog thing (download link here).  These folks be some freaks.

New sqrt(ur mother) track feat. fast hands

I took a drum track from this recording session test, and made a funny little electronic music song.  I added lots of effects to the drums, added some of the field recordings from the music department and various other chopped up sounds.  I called it "Baby Rabbits Tripping on Morning Glory Seeds" after a handful of strange conversations this weekend.

I got lost the other day, and I made this Music Video

A map wouldn't have helped me find my way either.

Ambient Remix of an Owl People Recording Session

I got some friends who play under the name "Owl People" and I like to record them.  I also like to take the recordings, take some loops out of it, throw some sqrt seasoning on it, and make a remix.  Below is a little ambient remix I did.

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.
