Paul Simon vs. Vampire Weekend…FIGHT!!!
First up is Paul Simon’s “Proof” from Rhythm Of the Saints, shortly followed by Vampire Weekend’s “White Sky” from Contra, pitched down a full step.
I’m not very familiar with Vampire Weekend, but Eric had this playing today and I thought it was a sample of “Proof”. It’s not.
I’m posting this audio for comparison only. You’ll have to come to your own conclusion.
Signal Chains (beta)
Matt and I have been working on Signal Chains for a few months, and are finally somewhat ready for the public to see it. I’m going to create a crisis here to make what we did seem so much cooler:
The Problem: Audio gear is expensive. Few brick and mortar stores carry expensive audio gear and will let you get your grubby little hands all over it before purchasing. Conversely, when people post audio samples online, you’re not always sure what is involved. Is it really that mic that sounds that way? Or is the preamp they’re using coloring the sound?
The Solution: Signal Chains is essentially a way for audio engineers (or those who call themselves audio engineers) to share their signal flows through audio samples, documenting each piece and process involved. It does this by providing a somewhat standardized method of doing so.
“Salt” Remix
A remix I did of “Salt” by The Sailor Sequence. Enjoy the headroom.
I was planning on sharing the Live set as well, but it’s pretty large. I’m holding out to see if Ableton’s Share feature can handle stuff like this.

Coming soon… from the attic!
Forty-Five hours of recording in three day’s time at the residence of everyday/everynight in preparation for their next album, “Trust”. This was my nook for the weekend.
