Not Just Just Daddy
I did some guest work on some recent releases I thought I’d share. Just Daddy’s God Housekeeping is described as a dark ambient/doom record and I like it a lot. I did a few bits and pieces with no real reference for what the record was going to be. I’m rumored to have made appearances … Continue reading Not Just Just Daddy
New Music: Knuckle Dustup
This is the first track from a music project with Justin Litaker called The Spiritual Animal Kingdom. “Knuckle Dustup” started with an improvised track made by Scott Bazar using a nano bug wedged inside a large tuning fork.

I had always wanted to take lessons, but either always said I didn’t have the money or didn’t deserve them. Getting back into playing music has helped get me through this year. I’m studying walking … Continue reading New Video: Kelly Coyle’s “Traveling, Sitting Quite Still”
New Music: We Danced and It Had Eyes Flat Like Gold Coins
Part of a continuing collaboration with improviser/guitarist Scott Bazar. I designed the track around the improvised pieces he sent me. He used guitar, an electric Christmas tree star topper, touch and sound reactive LED puppets, GE LED light stock, an LED Halloween skull, Ebow with a metal plate, a portable Christmas projector with signal, feedback, … Continue reading New Music: We Danced and It Had Eyes Flat Like Gold Coins
Sailor Lugosi’s Dead
A video I edited with some recent music I did for John King of The Drunken Odyssey. Below is a companion piece using the same melody from “Jolly Sailor Bold.” It’s ambient, if that includes soundscapes of a ghost ship floating over R’lyeh and awakening the Great Old One.
