All new material will be posted […]

My music recently appeared in the web series Bunker. My song Icarus In Free Fall was used in the opening scene of episode 2. Fellow Disquiet Junto participant Lee Rosevere has a track in the episode as well. Another of my songs should be appearing later in the series. So far the series is shaping up to be quite interesting […]
In a followup to my last post about sharing and reusing material I would like to share a recent work by Kiggler. Taking my recent track for the Disquiet Junto as a starting point he changed the track and morphed it into something beyond a remix. My patterns of static become the framework that are built on to create a […]
I have a new track out on the Poverty Electronics Vol. 2 compilation. Due to the themes of the label I wanted to try something a little more minimalist in my approach.

“Schemawound’s Body Movements remix album is the most powerfully minimalist commitment to sparsesound we’ve come across in some time (‘powerfully minimalist’ in that it’s minimalist, and powerful). There are no songs or other hand-holding things. Instead the sound sounds like it was grown. Not intended. Crepuscular creations fermenting, dividing, and slowly achieving sentience.” –20 Jazz Funk Greats
