a new animation by blu…fantastic graffiti artist from argentina.

and while I was doing the spacemix I started 2 remixes…or versions…or whatever you want to call it…from Moreno’s album MPC just released on Bakshish Music.

this is the first one.

I used as sources 4 tracks from it ( Session #99 / 4drums /scramble 2001 / fishing…you can ck them in the soundcloud player of the album)…and added drums and FM synths. (loving Operator more and more).
this is a first take…recorded live (no timeline) in Ableton using the launchpad and many knobs.

mauxuam and master margherita : fishing (nightly build 1)

and this is a mix I just did with all the tracks from Master Margherita : MPC.

heavily dubbed, vocoded and phased…a live take plus some edits…in Ableton.

just released on Bakshish Music the new album by moreno…collecting material he recorded and mixed between 1998 and 2001 on an akai mpc.
I reckon it is very interesting stuff…and still sounds fresh.
I did the (re)mastering for it…and it was a challenge…since the mixes where originally done on DAT…already compressed and kind of rough.
I am very happy with the result.

have a listen

master margherita : mpc

it took me a couple of weeks to migrate Bakshish, Cloudcycle and myself to a new server.
it went really smooth with almost no downtime…and I am well happy about it…since was my first migration.
now on a VPS on DreamHost…learning ssh and unix command line…
exiting

bakshish music presents a new adventure in sound :

mauxuam : wiggly bytes (download)

A collection of alternative mixes and previously unreleased tracks (apart of “after b4″ previously included in the comp “Future Memories” by Interchill Records), recorded and mixed between 2005 and 2007 and just remastered.
Guests on this release are Shiranami, Housemaker, Craig Organismic and Greg Hunter.

Wiggly music out of the grid of the usual tags…slow funky heavy beats layered with intense dark atmospheres and dubtronic echoes…a free range electronica without boundaries that explores soundscapes out of the map.
Uncertain futures, infinite possibilities, a multifaced raw reality escaping scientific glossy reason, there is no right choice and sometime the wrong way brings you to the right place in time….just before the announced apocalypse.

mauxuam is an experienced space navigator who lost his way home, a global gipsy and an unpredictable manouvrer.
He has been turning knobs and tweaking sounds for the past 25 years on many diverse and obscure projects.
He released the “controversial” album Viceversa in 2008 for Interchill Records (one of the best albums of that year for Mix Master Morris), and he is currently working on the online project Cloudcycle in collaboration with Greg Hunter and Master Margherita. Together with them he founded the collective Bakshish Music.
