Album is out!

Posted on April 27, 2017

The debut Cutlasses album ‘Clutching at Conscious’ is out! Finally. I feel like it has consumed every ounce of my spare time, and spare thoughts, but I’m very happy with the outcome. You can listen to it, and buy it here or just click on the Music tab. We had the launch party last night, thanks so […]

MIDI Mustard

Posted on February 27, 2017

For my gig at Thee Sunday Sonics this weekend I decided to make a new USB controller. I was previously using one with many more buttons and knobs than I actually needed. For this project I used the Teensy LC. A low cost version of the Teensy (around £10). It has less memory and computation […]

New track

Posted on January 12, 2017

I thought I’d share a demo of this new track, as it’s the first thing I’ve recorded which uses my glitch delay. I started with an hour or so of improvisation through the effects chain below, then pieced it together in Ableton, where I added drums, synths and more guitar, and finally mixed it down in […]

Oscilloscope finished

Weirdly the case was almost as tricky as putting together the PCB.  

Christmas Crafting

Posted on December 29, 2016

Merry Christmas everybody! One of my favourite things about the festive period, apart from seeing my friends and family, and all the food and booze, is the extra time I get away from work to concentrate on some projects. I never manage to get as many things done as I hope, but I have managed […]

Glitch Delay – more progress

Posted on December 7, 2016

I’ve been working pretty hard on my glitch delay module the last few months. As you may remember it’s sort of a cross between my previous AudioFreeze project and a digital delay. It consists of a delay line with a write head and a read head. The difference being the read head is basically looping a […]

Work in progress Glitch Delay

Posted on November 3, 2016

So I’ve been beavering away on a new Eurorack effect based on the Teensy board again! Added a very rough demo, which starts with a dry loop, then entirely wet glitch effect. Dials from top to bottom are Glitch window size Glitch window speed Feedback Dry/Wet mix     The effect is sort of a […]

Fort Process 2016

Posted on September 4, 2016

Yesterday I attended Fort Process festival, which took place at Newhaven Fort. It was a pretty incredible day. The fort itself, which was built in the 1860s, is a pretty amazing space to begin with. It teems with bunkers and tunnels, as well as underground chambers and gun emplacements. As you explored the fort, you […]
