Solo Albums

Here are 4 albums I released under my pseudonym Thispatcher. Guitar Smattering is an album featuring solo performances with electric guitar and electronics. Early Electroacoustic Works Volumes I & II chronicle my earliest experiments in sound through to my BFA in electroacoustic composition at Concordia University. Let’s Update the Software on Opening Night was a track I contributed to the 3-module Challenge album produced by fellow Toronto musician Bachelard aka Heidi Chan.

 
 

Guitar Smattering features pieces made with guitar + electronics, and each were recorded live in one take.

Selected works from my early days composing with free software, guitar feedback, circuit bending, live coding in puredata and supercollider, and field recordings.

Featuring: electric guitar, wine glasses, puredata, tape, field recordings, prepared piano soundboard
