Tears in the Typing Pool (Broadcast Cover)
This weekend I continued to explore using OpenCV to simulate the look of various video game and computer systems through time. I felt applying a kind of time travel as a music video for Broadcast’s nostalgic feeling Tears in the Typing Pool could work well. (It’s a song we’ve played live…

Love is for Love (Jeff Tweedy Cover)
“Love is for Love” is one of my favourite songs from last year. From Jeff Tweedy’s amazing Twilight Override. I recorded this take on it one morning before heading out the door to a conference here in Lyon.

To Be Alone With You (Sufjan Stevens Cover)
Here comes another impressionistic little Sufjan Stevens cover.

Tower of Song (Leonard Cohen Cover)
Zappa famously asked «Does humor belong in music?» and then went about proving it did. A morning a while back I woke up with a voice that sounded like Batman. So it made me think of Leonard Cohen’s Tower of Song. «…I was born with a golden voice…» and recorded a take on that. Batman and all.…

Sign of the times (Harry Styles Cover)
After seeing Project Hail Mary this week, Sign of the Times by Harry Styles stayed in my head, so I decided to record this impressionistic ukulele version one morning. Music video: https://www.instagram.com/p/DXmHS74DJZw/

I Should Have Known Better (Sufjan Stevens Cover)
Voila, here’s another ukulelified song. This time a cover of one of my favourites from Sufjan Stevens — “I Should Have Known Better”. To fit The Algorithm I cut it in half (I kid — the song modulates to chords I weren’t ready for yet.) Music video here:...
-
Pale Blue Eyes (The Velvet Underground Cover)
A while back, The Algorithm showed me Patti Smith performing a live cover of The Velvet Underground’s incredible “Pale Blue Eyes”. Inspired, I sat down with my ukulele and recorded my own version. Music video: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DWeDL70jBJR/?igsh=MTI1OHF1NXlxN2xqcQ==

Myth (Beach House Cover)
Some weeks ago Simon brought the music sheets for Myth to a 1bisHill rehearsal. An amazing Beach House synth pop song I hadn’t listened to for a while. Fun was had! Later that week I acquired a ukulele. This song was still reverberating in my head, so I gave ukulelifying it a shot. Music video:...

Pi Day

Zero-Sum Game
Some years ago I wrote a PICO-8 game that plays itself. Autopong, I called it, why not? Four player pong that plays itself. An illustration of a zero-sum game. Some humans seem to think that everything is such a game these days. Zero-Sum. Even when it is not. So I wrote a warrior like song on my...

Jamuary2017 #29 ("Alternative Facts")
I haven't been able to participate too much in @truecuckoo's excellent #jamuary2017, sadly. (Even though I have a close to a million of quirky drafts on various tapes from my OP-1.

Small Plane (Bill Callahan Cover)
So, I've been working on a cover of this amazing Bill Callahan song for a while and now it's time for it to live its own life. Maybe. (I wanted to see what would happen to it in 6 instead of 4, and here it is - my take on that transformation.) Guitars, u-bass, vocals, drum programming, mixing…
