Like Summa de Nada, Everything… collages compositional etudes and rock songs. Some of the collaged materials found on Everything… were already collaged for earlier pieces so the end result is partially a collage-of-collages.

Like oddball extended techniques? Listen for me playing an electric razor through humbucker electric guitar pickups.

Ripple In Empty Pool

Ripple In Empty Pool MP3coast-150x150

Duration: 7:24

Year(s) of composition: 1999

Ripple contrasts sections of minimalistic expanding/contracting meters with rhythms commonly found in drum-and-bass electronica. More conventionally “pretty” than many of my pieces.

Relics of A Lost State

MP3s of excerpts relics_cd_cover-150x150to follow

Year(s) of composition: 1998-1999

Relics was a collection featuring some of my first collaged music and also includes some of my early experimental etudes. The rock songs used in the collages had a much heavier industrial sound than previous recordings. I will post a few tracks from the collection in the future but currently I’ve removed it “from print” and have re-collaged some of the pieces in newer works like Everything Will Make Sense Given Time.
