about

Happy Halloween,

In 2021, I moved to Germany for a year to continue my studies after being awarded Moers Festival’s 14th annual Improvisor In Residence music scholarship. PSYCHOTIC SOUND MAN 1 for drums was developed, created and conceived of entirely at the improvisor in residence house, then recorded across the street at Peschkenhaus. It consists of three solo drum pieces based on various syntactical algorithms.

Composed from a catalogue of geosonical phrases I've developed over the past few months, the sonic communication echoes at times simultaneously as one phrase using all the instruments of the drum set, or at times several phrases echo at once passed between and/or layered upon differing parts of the "drum set." This compositional approach was inspired by the complex process of programming emotive psychosomatic characters into the head of an artificial life form. This Psychotic Sound Man struggles to integrate the perfect amount of self-sabotage into it's cryptic emulation of the human mind.
