Oh, I’ve totally forgot to mention it here. So here comes the announcment, a month an a half too late. I made a track for the Diplodocus pirate Korg DS-10 compilation on mp3death. It’s called 1hora, meaning 1 hour, the time limit for the compo. (It was meant to be a competition, but ended up being a compilation) It’s a dirty, crappy trance tune.

It’s available from the Diplodocus page by clicking 44meg votepack.

Back from NorbergFestival 2008 (Video and image dump)

July 28th, 2008

I’m back from the Norberg Festival, and I had a great time. A shout out to some of the great artists: nordloef, Foona, Dj Peter Ericsson, Bitmobilen, PH1 Axid Cerw, all of the X-Dumpians, Veqtor, AWT, Food for Animals, Ayhan Aydin and to finish off the perfect Saturday evening, some breakcore from Babyshaker and Bong-Ra.
Below is a video of my own gig. More snippets available in this Youtube playlist.

This brings me to another point. You might be wondering why I’m not using any Gameboys or anything on stage in those videos. Here’s the story: About two weeks before an SD card in my M3DS crashed. (I’m using the Lameboy emulator for the DS - actually pretty handy and pretty clean sound as well.) Because of this, 6 months worth of work went down the drain in an instant. I trusted an SD card to be a stable form of storage and didn’t even have a backup. (Gah!!)
So, I had to rush together a live set, using only pre-recorded material. I could’ve brought a real DMG and played some of my old stuff, but I figured I’d better just use my computer for everything this time.
Stack of Lost Tracks CD's Bunch of Lost Tracks CD's
Because of the data crash, I collected all the songs that I had actually recorded before the crash and made 10 CD’s that I sold on the festival. Each with a limited edition number and a hand drawn CD cover. The CD is called “Lost Tracks” due to the fact the source files for the tracks on it were lost. I wish to thank all of the people who bought a copy! I’m planning to release these songs as a free net release on OXO Unlimited, but if you’re interested in buying a physical copy with a hand drawn cover, don’t hesitate to contact me.
I’m going to use the small profit I made from it to buy a WiiMote. My plan for the future is to pre-record a number of loops and play around with on the fly using a combo of Ableton Live and Reaktor.

Stoppa FRA-lagen - Remix av Blogge’s 198FRA

June 16th, 2008

Blogge Bloggelito gjorde en video om det kommande lagförslaget som remixade Apple’s reklamfilm “1984″ för att skapa underbar politisk satir ang. FRA-lagen som den kallas. Hans satir var nästan lika underbar som Döda politiska karriärers sällskap som spinner på samma spår men har en mer positiv inställning.

Blogge gjorde två versioner med olika musik, en med Megadeth-musik och en med musik av Alicia Keys. Jag bestämde mig för att göra en variant med min låt nuracl, som passade snuskigt bra. Inte bara fångar den den dystopiska stämningen utan med en liten tidsförskjutning på en sekund så visade den sig vara väl tidssynkad också.

Men eftersom Youtube valde att knulla mig i röven och inte tillåta mig att ladda upp videor med hög ljudkvalitet med det trick som tidigare lät en undgå Youtube’s konvertering och t ex ladda upp videor med stereo så fick den hamna på Vimeo istället.

The Quest For Red Diamond (NitroTracker song)

June 15th, 2008

<3 <3 <3

I present to you my first XM created with NitroTracker, called The Quest For Red Diamond. It’s a remake of an LSDj tune but it ended becoming a whole new song. It consists almost solely of samples that I’ve synthesized myself. (The hi-hat and snare were taken from som kit, the rest is by me)

Download the XM (For NitroTracker)
Listen to the song on 8bitcollective (MP3)

I recommend you to only play the XM in NitroTracker. NT’s volume envelopes are a bit different from those of regular XM players, so some of the instruments will sound a bit tacky if played with anything but NitroTracker.

Now I’m just hoping for some feature requests for NitroTracker to come true, mainly stereo playback.
Oh, NitroTracker isn’t related to me, but got it’s name from the code name for Nintendo DS, which was Nitro. ou can still see a trace of this in that the model number for the original NDS is NTR-001.

Veqtor & 2tronik01 - Analogik2 [OXOMP3002]

June 3rd, 2008

Analogik2 cover
When I’m not doing Gameboy music, I’m doing other experimental stuff. Like patcing cables and turning knobs on modular synthesizers.
This release is recorded live by me and Veqtor using a STS/Serge and Buchla Series 200 together with a spring tank reverb. On track 3 I came up with the great idea of using feedback with the reverb, which created some very eerie and moodful sounds indeed.

New “song” - Multi-pHasal Realms

May 12th, 2008

A new song is up on 8bitcollective. Or rather a sonic landcape or what I’m supposed to call it. It’s based on Crappus Rex that I uploaded to BotB in a rush. Crappus rex is named after this blog, for a good reason. That song was made on my Gameboy with LSDj.
Multi-pHasal Realms is basically the same sound with an awful lot of effects added on top. No new elements were added, only effects on the existing sounds. The name comes from this blog post by Tim Boucher. The capital H in my title stands for pH, as in acid.

Upcoming netlabel release!

March 22nd, 2008

For my gig this night, I produced some new material. I actually thought most of it was so good that I have decided to release it as a free netlabel release on OXO Unlimited as soon as possible. Keep an eye on this blog (Eg by clicking my huge feed button ;) ) so you don’t miss it.

Three videos (Moshpit 2007, Moxibustor)

September 21st, 2007

Please excuse the really crappy quality of these videos, but this all I got at the moment. The first one is a video of me, and the second one is of Boy vs Bacteria. The third video is a video of me playing with The Moxibustor, my glitch oscillator.
Both the videos from Moshpit are shot by Fredrik Stolpe (Cornbeast)
