listen At Last -- So here it is, the final composition. To celebrate, I've created a collage of endings. It's hard to believe that this year is over. It's been an incredible experience composing a complete piece every day.What began as an idea about composing for the internet became a lifestyle....

listen Miss Break -- Like yesterday's piece, this is built using the drum break from Jimi Hendrix's Little Miss Lover. Very early on in this project I imagined making a whole series of pieces using drum breaks other than the amen break, but never that idea never quite materialized...

listen Little Broken -- yeah, I don't what to say... there's drums.

listen Won't You Come Out To Play -- My uncle is visiting (again!). While enjoying our post-pizza cannoli, our conversation turned to the Beatles and my podcast. So, with a little help from my uncle, we took the last four notes of Dear Prudence, slowed them down, layered them on top of…

listen Rock-Gut -- I found out last Thursday that NPR wants to do a story about 60x365 on All Things Considered. Very exciting. So today I went to the NPR studio here in New York to tape an interview with Robert Siegel. It was a lot of fun, he's very gracious and patient. The experience was...

listen Swept -- Lillian , good friend of 60x365, made final suggestion for a piece built from wind sounds. It's more sliced than I imagined it would be when I started, but that happens here sometimes. attributions: wind.wav by jaimedaniel whislingwind.WAV by stomachache Wind in the trees-2.wav by...

listen Siren Song -- This started off as the sound of a police siren, originally recorded by Freesound user acutescream.

June 20, 2008
listen Dreams Are This -- Tonight JoLayne and I went to a birthday party at a very loud bar. One of the songs to blare out for the DJ's PA was the Eurythmics' Sweet Dreams. Since it's gotten itself stuck in my head I decided it was fair game for a little reworking. Enjoy.

listen Spaced Out -- Last weekend I checked out David Byrne's Playing the Building installation. Using an old organ as a controller, visitors can "play" an old warehouse. Different keys activate blowers and hammers around the space. Standing in the middle of the room you can hear the sounds move...

listen Lullaby -- so tired.

listen Ground -- a little late-night fun at 60Hz.

June 16, 2008
listen Rhymes with Trucker -- Our former landlords were lazy, incompetent, and more than a bit sleazy. I mention this only because we're still dealing with them, and they still manage to make me angry. Oh well.

listen Sigh -- only 15 days left...

June 14, 2008
listen Trapped -- not literally... cinematically.

June 13, 2008
listen Etude -- So many of these pieces have been etudes, I tried to avoid using that as a title, but now that the end is near it doesn't seem to matter.

June 12, 2008
listen Hard Shell -- Hard on the outside, soft in the middle.

June 11, 2008
listen Last Break -- I wanted to use the amen break one more time this year. As you'll hear it's been filtered well past the point of recognition. Think of this as a sign of things to come...

June 10, 2008
listen Staying -- It's been a while since I've made a sample-based piece. So I grabbed Bjork's Debut and made this little collage. Enjoy...

listen Klowdz -- With a few modifications, the tool that generated yesterday's fluffy piece yields today's noisy treat.
-
June 8, 2008
listen Clouds -- This is a little generative sequencer I've built in MaxMSP. It chooses which notes to play when (with a little user guidance at the beginning...). The synth sound is still on the simple side, but that's the next project. For now, enjoy this chill little minute.

listen Robot Dream -- is there such a thing?

listen Simple Sin(e) 9 -- Lately I find these kinds of sounds very reassuring, though I couldn't say why.
