May as well fill out the last few bytes of my upload space.
Since no one uses myspace anymore I decided to start posting my tracks somewhere where people might appreciate them. Maybe getting some of the "back-catalog" out there will encourage me to start playing again. Keep in mind that I tend to pepper stuff with offensive samples, so not everything is going to be guaranteed work safe.
I think I'm going to start out with my gameboy and ds10 stuff. First up, the last thing I did with ds10, "Rock and Roll should never be too fast". Completed pretty much exactly a year ago.

Something I never finished, "dwell"
Rm1x, TG-33, SQ-80 and an emu esi-2000 which has been a haunting boondoggle of crashed ancient scsi drives which is why it never got finished.
Also a kind of useless demo piece written in the Partch 43 tone scale to make seraph happy. It was done with a fizmo and my much-beloved though not yet much used Marion MSR-2.

And the gameboy/lsdj stuff. If you haven't yet, I would encourage pretty much everyone to go the flea market and pick up a dmg-01, get a copy of lsdj and a flash cart. Firestarter still sells preburnt pics for his gb->midi interface, Timothy Lamb has an arduino version working. Lsdj is -great- software and I've gotten the some of the weirdest, coolest noises using it. Finally finished my midi sync last febuary, should probably, you know, do something with it.
These tracks are all pure lsdj/gameboy.
"human being" spring 2006, first gb track
"earthbound" winter 2007 (also some effects and processing via soundforge)
"bereft of foundation" winter 2008

"ambient" stuff
Bohemian groove. Sping 2007.
Ax-60, Microwave XT, Sq-80, Vegas, Soundforge
I live two towns away from the place

No wonder I'm paranoid. :tinfoil:
Synth is Power!. Spring 2007/winter 2008
Sq-80, Ax-60, Microwave, Digitech TSR-12, Emu esi-2000, Soundforge
The -other- song I never finished because of drive malfunction. Hastly spiced together from salvaged odds and ends of the orignally intended sample collection.
A wavetable under the influence. Fall 2008
XT, and, I think, the Fizmo. Samples are from the Cassavetes film "A woman under the influence" Not as good as "Killing of a Chinese bookie", but it had Peter Falk in it.
Dreaming of whalevillage. Fall 2008
XT, Rm1x
Continuity cries out for it after the last track

rid has a sense of humor, albeit a very black one.
Rehump. Summer 2006
Casio MT-400v with all the warrantyvoid mods, also soundforge and vegas
Written as an ode to insane French dub computer monster XeraK
Lyrics:
all computers in the house reset your clock signals
all you robots on the floor work your hydraulics
and all you boys and girls
touch your nasty places
video games rockin' out use your special moves
cartoons getting down paint yourself a new world
and all you boys and girls
grab your nasty places
Love will tear us apart (joy division). Winter 2008
Nintendo DS, probably the worst cover ever. Done for a friend.
Kawanza is here. Winter 2006
Mt-400v, and either the Ax-60 or the XT.
Seasons greetings from rid.
Habari kani? Habari kani! Kawanza is here. What's new? What's happening? Kawanza is here! (kill whitey)
Soundwave Rap. Summer 2006
Gear list for this one's a trip. Pretty sure it was just an Alesis Metavox and a Philtre (both of which are for sale, PM me) and a Casio VL-1 and VL-5 (neither of which is for sale)
Hey, it's me, Soundwave.
Remember? We met last Thursday at the kareoke bar. I'm a giant purple robot that transforms into a giant purple tape deck. Oh yeah, you remember me? I'm a pretty unique guy. So you also remember when you held my giant metal hand in your tiny flesh hand and whispered into my audio receptor that our love would last for ever? But you never called me back, so I guess you don't.
My optic sensors met your eyes and I felt like I could fly
never mind that I'm a decpeticon and I can fly all the time with my jet propulsion.
You bought me a drink, I can't remember what it was called, but it was very pink.
You said the gin would make me horny, I said it would corrode my circuitry
You put on a song request not knowing it was the song that I liked best
We hit the stage and we sang "Love shack baaaaaybeeeeeey"
We were a hit because I'm the robot with perfect pitch
I made you my bitch
But now I'm sitting in decepticon headquarters under the sea
so distraught
so lonely
even rampage (ravage), rumble and laserbeak seem to be avoiding me
and you occupy my circuitry
Soundwave superior, constructicons (destructicons) inferior!
Dinner with Bush. Summer 2006
Boss Dr-202, soundforge, vegas.
Not so much funny as true.

For the shear pleasure of posting really rough takes, here's the thing I'm working on right now.
Sex music for idiots.
First pass for the backing tracks. Further destruction to come tomorrow
Rm1x, drum noises (will be replaced with the RM50, Rm1X has passable sounds, RM50 has great sounds)
Gameboy/LSDJ, other noises, Synced to midi with a firestarter midi sync
TG77, "acoustic" bass patch
MSR-2, fuzzy droney bass pach
Synths are both tuned to a hexany union scale.
This is dedicated to Eric for the inspiration, Manuel for Scala and Zac for the hell of it.
Normalized for your enjoyment.
From every bar and radio
out goes the peacock call
every guitarist and every "D"
a guised means of saying
"please, fuck me"
after the drugs, what have you got?
SEX MUSIC FOR IDIOTS
Z.P.G., human extinction
ain't bad ideas in my opinion
the only intelligence known
wasted bolstering the career
of sean "puffy" combs
one chance is all that you get
and you choose to make sex music for idiots
against the absurdity of biology
the well-spring of suffering
the bravest thing one can do
is to leave a legacy
instead of offspring
