Episode 100 – This Version by Thomas Reed

Holy Crap, it’s episode 100! I can’t believe it!

For episode 100, we have a fantastic little piece by Tom Reed, a Texan who makes his living torturing innocent teenagers with math, and who for no discernable reason has become the official Bitstripper of the podcasting community.

And his episode is right on target, if you know what I mean.

You can find him verbally abusing podcasters on twitter, and go check out his bitstrips here.

Episode 100: Your Holiday Eyebrow Trim

OMG, it’s episode 100! On Christmas! A gift for everyone!

For episode 100, I bring you a piece called Your Holiday Eyebrow Trim, recorded and assembled by one Mister Paul Potts. He describes it as “not so much a piece of audio art as it is an experience”.

I’ll tell you what it is: it’s a surprisingly compelling binaural recording of a man at the barber shop, and utterly fantastic. You absolutely must listen to this with headphones on, or you won’t get it.

And, as a little bonus, Paul finishes out this piece by singing that classic Coulton Christman Carol (say that 5 times fast), Chiron Beta Prime.

Awesome.

A little breakfast for you

Happy New Year! While I was hanging around figuring out how to write off a new copy of FL studio as a business expense and pointedly not taking down the christmas decorations (as you can plainly see), I started remixing some Mexican Breakfast. I think I may have just face-planted into my technical limitations, so it very well may never get any better than this little unfinished clip is, but it’s cute, and I need a break, so I’m podcasting it.

NaPodPoMo 25: A case of national security.

Well, fuck.

NaPodPoMo 23: Doodles

I don’t have a lot of time tonight to tell you about this, but you’ll be hearing a lot about it in the coming weeks. Quick answer: I’m working on this project, and you should too if you think it’s interesting. What you’re listening to the first set of notes I’ve made on what I’d like to do in this project.

I promise I’ll come back with more details later.

NaPodPoMo 10: Crazy

Double digits woo!

Crazy is the final part of The Psychosis Set. If you’ve been paying attention, you’ll notice it sounds a bit similar to the post a couple of days ago, Crisis. And you’d be right. I wasn’t entirely happy with Crisis, I find it a little one-dimensional. So, I tried to remix it into something new, give it more of a sense of movement. Therefore, an example of cognative dissonance became a full-blown nervous breakdown.

Thus ends The Psychosis Set.

NaPodPoMo 8: Crisis

Woo! Week 2 of NaPodPoMo kicks of with what I’m calling The Psychosis Set.

Part one is called Crisis. It’s my attempt to create an audio representation of cognative dissonance.

If you stay tuned, you’ll find this file influenced a later piece. But I won’t tell you about it yet.

NaPodPoMo 7: Screaming Into The Void

Look at that! It’s been a week already! That wasn’t so hard…

This is the last reaver scream, I promise. You’ll notice that this one is quite different than the others — that’s why it’s not in the numbered series.

Up next? Something completely different. Maybe.

NaPodPoMo 6: Reaver Scream 3

A little while ago, I got it in my head to try making horror sounds. For inspiration, I used the reavers, from the Serenity/Firefly universe. Because I’m a nerd.

This is the third in a series of four effects I came up with. I don’t think the result came out particularly reaverish, but the name stuck nonetheless.  The reason this is interesting is because I used four wildly different techniques to get what are essentially similar sounds, but I’ll be damned if I remember what any of them are now. Anyway, enjoy.
