Open Funk Sores is a collection of funk tracks accompanied by frenetic pixel gfx by Raquel Meyers. It first appeared as an MP3/MOD netlabel release in 2008, and then as a musicdisk for Playstation Portable, and then as an online musicdisk. And now it’s an iOS app too!

PS. Funk is the future!

2SLEEP1

Sep 14, 2011 | , , ,

2SLEEP1 is a playlist of audiovisual performances in text mode, designed to make you fall asleep. The idea is to show the music being composed in real-time (Exedub) along with typewriter-style animations (e.g. Sjöman).

Both the music interface and the graphics are built up from text symbols. This means that the (graphical) objects can work together with the (musical) instructions, on a visual level. Vank is a first rough test of this and Matsamöt makes a similar thing, without the improvisation. Finally, Echidna is a silent movie with semi-live music.

Made by Raquel Meyers and me, mostly using c-64 and Amiga. The videos are early explorations of new methods, so it’s rather brutal at times. Greetz to Poison (rip) and Toplap!

Goto80: Summer of Seven 5/7 (7″/MP3 Pingipung)

Aug 15, 2011 |

A: Sombanova
B: Mamasita

10 years ago I released my first 7″, so this is the right time for another one. A skweee-bossanova that goes drum-machine Squarepusher (?) and a romantic dub-pop song with Acid Terrorist vocals. Available as 7″ (only 200 copies) but also as MP3 in all those iTunes-Beatport kind of places. More details at Pingipung’s page.

You can listen to the B-side’s dirty 6581 action here. The vocals were improvised by Acid Terrorist, while I was dubbing away with an SX-64 and Wersiboard with a hacked Defmon. The A-side is made with more modern hardware, but uses a 16 millisecond loop for all the instruments except the drums.

If you like the B-side, you’ll like the next audiovisual text mode sleep release that I’m making with Raquel Meyers. Stay hungry! And also: check out the rest of Pingipung’s Summer of Seven series. Almost completely chip-free, yeeess!

Update. Today (4 june, 2012) I realised that the melody of Sombanova is from Raymond Scott’s Portonofino 2. Very strange experience. Sometimes melodies come from cosmos and dreams, sometimes from hard work, and sometimes from other songs. Afaik, this is the first time I do this.

Acid Burger is the order of the day: an eatable acid project! This first menu was launched and sold out at Blip Festival Tokyo. Since then there were some research complications, but now it’s available for the general public!

It seems to be a burger/mini-DVD/acid object with music by me, video by Raquel Meyers and some contributions from other people, like vocals by Notendo. 303/606/64/707/808 oh yeah.

All of this is yours for 10 euros + shipping. Get it at acidburger.com

EnoughRecords releases a collection of fonky Amiga songs by Goto80, including a remix by ioeb! Apart from the MP3s, the original MODs are also included (which are open source, so steal-remix-trash-yeah). Also, there is a musicdisk for Playstation Portable which means that you can copy it to your PSP and play the songs with exclusive videos by Raquel Meyers (who also made the cover-art). The PSP-production was made by EnoughRecords and Titan. In Februari 2010, ps coded an online music disk, using Syphus portamod-engine aswell. Although the GIF-animations are a bit wonky, the MOD-playback is cosmically correct. Check it out!

Download: MOD or MP3 or EXE or everything.

All songs made in Protracker 2.3 on Amiga. You can download the MOD-files and destroy them in Renoise or something if you want. Let me know!
