Greg sent me an edit of AngkorWat…from his album Future Dust…
without his permission I started to play with it…slowed it down to 101…

this take is recorded live while playing with dummy clips…the launchpad and more knobs assigned to different fx…
the only sound not coming from the original edit is the new (wicked) Tattoo drum machine by AudioDamage

Robert Henke is the man…I have been following his music from the beginning…
I am still in love with Cinemascope and Interstate…and his liveset is probably the ultimate electronic liveset…period.

he is one of the minds behind Ableton…and he does many workshops around the planet sharing his knowledge….and many other good things can be said about him…he is humble !

I met him at the Sonica festival 3 years ago where I had the honor to share the same stage (Deadbeat, Rhythm and Sound and Greg Hunter were there too)..that time he played in front of 30 ppl (maybe less)…while thousands where lobotomized on the main stage by some rubbish trance…but he delivered an amazing set…and he didn’t behave like a rockstar…even if many of the bloated rockstars (who were playing on the lobotomy (trance) stage) were actually using a software that he created…period again.

he just released Silence, a new album…(dunno where he finds the time to do music)…

I haven’t got it yet…and I am very curious.
I am very pleased to read that he also joined the movement to stop the Loudness War…and he didn’t use any compressors for this album…and no limiters during the mastering.
This is a link to a very interesting conversation about mastering between Robert and Rashad Becker, the guy who mastered it:

and it confirms what I wrote in the post “Mastering is killing music” more than 3 months ago…cheers.

the ambient mini album by Moreno is out…you can download it, buy it, donate for it…@ Bakshish Music website :

I mastered it and produced the first track “moded”…I think is good.

I just finished to master Ambient Manifold, the new album by Moreno (Master Margherita)…and I am very happy with the results.
there is going to be also a weird track we wrote online (not this one)….
it will be released by our brave Bak$hish Music at the end of the next week.
this is how it sounds like

Master Margherita : Prova Sonido

sometime all is crumbling…and the only thing left to do is to cry for help.
my life in the bush of ghosts has been the seminal album that probably  inspired me the most.
I did this remix a couple of years ago…using the stems on their website (thanks Brian, thanks David)….but I never uploaded it to them since is too long…(one day I will do a shorter edit)
Brian Eno and David Byrne : Help me somebody (mauxuam remix)

this was a nice surprise….
I just found this podcast with one of my tracks in it on Sacred Dub…
a website very close to mr Bill Laswell…

Sacred Dub : Transmission 039

tracklist

I ‘ve been following this new project from the very beginning and I am very happy to be involved with the release. Master Margherita and Justin crafted a juicy debut. I did the mastering…and it’s now out on bakshish music.
