I released this dark ambient album after working on it for a few years. It was inspired by Arthur Machen and the forest fires in California that were occurring all around the mountains in Santa Cruz where I lived for the past 4 years. I moved earlier this year, right before the fires completely wiped out the street that I lived on (no word yet if the house my family rented was torched. Anyway, The whole recording process was centered around that, and with the fire finally enveloping the town, I felt like I could finish it. I recorded some of the sound with this modular synth I designed and built, with modules that send the signal through ash, among other things.

Sequenced from teletype (+ hermod for long melody), metric modulation (6/8 to 4/4), slight west coast feel. As usual full patch notes in description on youtube and teletype scene on http://teletype.a773.dk

Little by little my system evolves! Since my last post I think I added a Rabid Elephants “Natural Gate” and a nice stereo delay module to use as a send effect. I was able to “contain” all the voices a bit better this time. It has always been a battle for me to avoid things getting too busy.

An ambient, droney track that gets a bit heavy halfway through.

3 modules challenge : based on feedback loops of output sound as random/complex/noisy LFO.

Two-track Montano release on fellow lines member’s Fallen Moon Recs. :raised_hands: My friend has a room full of gear he could buy second-hand for under $50, I have a laptop. We make long and quiet bits and pieces.

Glad one of the commenters got the reference:

if you are super smart you know the German town if Bielefeld doesn’t exist in our dimension.Its a vacation spot for the dimension hopping demons known as The Deep State. The only way to get to Bielefeld us via the astral plane. You’ll find your way if you listen to the Bielefeld Conspiracy by Montano. Love the title track. A fine combination of hypnotic humming sounds and what sounds like fireside crackle.

Last night’s live and indirect session for the Neon Hospice is now archived at Mixcloud - the session largely used the ever-intriguing Antiphon, 0-Coast and the fed-back echo on a lil’Erebus, all under the blended influence of a couple of morphing shapes on the Euclidigons script on Norns with a sprinkling of allophones run through Emission Control 2 :

I was asked to work on a release for the label leerraum ( leerraum.net ) i felt super honoured and was encouraged by the labels international roster i pushed my boundaries of perceived reduction out of my comfort zone and ended up with a 37 minute long slowly evolving song.

Had fun putting this together the past couple of months. Lots of modular and non-modular synthesis going on. Some ambient stuff, some rhythmic stuff, some noise.

Many thanks to any who take the time for a listen.

"When I chanced upon the picture of my two aunts working the switchboard all those years ago, I wondered what they would think looking at my modular synth case today. Growing up with stories of that switchboard lighting up during the “War of the Worlds” broadcast always amazed me.

Let this album be my humble homage to them and the work they did, manually patching phone calls to recipients. Also dedicated to the little town of West Louisville, Kentucky - and all of the weirdness I encountered growing up there."

Big up for the ross from friends!

sounds great! well done. I can write things about half this length, but I would find it challenging to go as long as you have here. :slight_smile:

I’ve only heard one other release in the same series, but I like that one a lot too.
