    A bunch of kick samples sequenced and mangled by Tidalcycles Here’s the code that made the music:

  • Experiment with an isometric grid and animation

    Did you know Procreate can do animation? I used it for months before realizing this.

  • Septembeat 6

    I recorded myself saying “toot” then used that sound to build everything in this track

  • At the coffee shop☕☕☕

    It’s nice to get out of the house and have some coffee I didn’t make

  • Emacs: (Better) new vterm

    A snippet to make vterm in Emacs nicer to use

  • Septembeat 5

    A quick sketch in Drambo. Electro-funk with 808-style drums and a square wave oscillator playing 16th notes. One of my favorite combinations

  • My Funky Orange Logic Synth

    It’s been a long time since I made music with this funky little synth… maybe I should make some. I have a video of it here. It makes some weird and wild noises that might pair well with a Volca Drum… What do you think?

  • Look at these beautiful leaves!

  • A bean lava lamp?

  • There was that time I played accordion at the state capitol in front of The Flying Spaghetti Monster

  • Just your opinion, man

  • My daughter has a very fancy drink order at Starbucks

  • Septembeat 4

    A quick dubby half-hour sketch in Drambo test

  • Hunter Angler Gardener Cook

    https://honest-food.net At times I’ve been super into foraging, fishing, and for a short time even hunting. This site has a great combination of anecdotes, instructions, and recipes. Hank sometimes focuses on lesser-valued food items like offal or weeds, and I appreciate that. If you want to up your wild food game, give this site a…

  • Synthtopia

    https://synthtopia.com A never-ending barrage of synth news, new gear, album releases, links to interesting articles. It’s a bit of a firehose! When I want to stay up-to-date (to the minute) I go over to Synthtopia and see what’s going on. Only negative is the comments, sometimes there are some real assholes. Maybe skip those.

  • Create Digital Music

    https://cdm.link My favorite music technology blog. I’ve been reading for a very long time (mid 2000’s maybe?). So much good stuff: album reviews, new technology, some random musings. Most of the music tech news I get is through here. Peter Kirn is awesome!

  • Kicks Condor

    https://kickscondor.com A huge inspiration for my website, this is one of the most interesting websites I’ve ever had the pleasure of visiting. There’s all sorts of weird stuff happening: sounds when you click things, floating bubbles, changing backgrounds, and a lot of the text uses the Chicago font, the same font from those old Macs…

  • Goblin.tools

    https://goblin.tools A super cool resource for neurospicy/neurodivergent folks. A suite of tools to help us with executive dysfunction, task-related stress, converting “spicy” thoughts to “classy ones,” compiling braindumps into a list of tasks, and more. It uses AI, which I’m generally opposed to. On the other hand, it’s a wonderful use of the technology that…

  • Sometimes you just gotta bloop (Septembeat 3)

    Septembeat 3: Sometimes it’s nice to really lean into beeps and bloops and get weird.

  • Bring back the 90’s with cursor effects

    If you’re of a certain age you may remember visiting a website and suddenly your cursor starts dropping fairy dust all over the page. Or maybe it leaves a rainbow trail. Well, my friends, I went searching and there’s an easy way to do that now
