Below are my live eurorack explorations for the week of November 2nd, 2020. I took my start from Todd Barton’s Buchla Bongo video.

Music Inspired by the Gone Girl film soundtrack – What Have I Done?

July 23, 2020July 23, 2020 Ethan!

I’m working on a new electronic album for late 2020, and a lot of my recent inspiration comes from the film soundtrack for the movie Gone Girl.

May 21, 2020May 31, 2020 Ethan!

This soundtrack was written for the film Life of a Doll, which is a metaphor for the COVID 19 quarantine in NYC happening now. I wrote the music for orchestra and some experimental electronics that I created myself using Straylight and Kontakt with experimental delays and freezes. My interpretation of the film is that the […]
