about

All releases in the "wf archives" series are pay-what-you want, but any money made off of them will go straight into my children's college fund.

"Blassed Your Radio" is a compilation of recordings made with instruments designed by Peter Blasser: Ciat-Lonbarde, Shbobo, Tocante etc. Find them at synthmall.com

I typically do not record with these instruments since I find that playing them is all about experience and none about results. Thus this is about all I could scrape together that used them. Quite a few of the recordings were made within days of first acquiring a given instrument, when I was still getting to know it.

"Phasht": Tocante Phashi and delay

"encounters i-iii": Ciat-Lonbarde Sidrazzi Organus and modular

"Air" and "Bonus": Ciat-Lonbarde Sidrax Organ and modular

"Nest" and "Parallel Fingerpainting": Ciat-Lonbarde Tetrax Organ

"Comb the Desert": Shbobo Shnth and Ciat-Lonbarde Cocolase

"Transmission215": Ciat-Lonbarde Tetrax Organ and modular

"Cilia": Ciat-Lonbarde Cocolase and modular

Note: "Comb the Desert" is a generative composition and could have been included in the "Generative" series but I chose to put it in this release instead since it is the only recording I have using the Shnth. Shnth users might be interested in the bouillabaisse I used, so it is pasted below. Note there are no butts in this code: no input to the machine. It's totally self-playing. In the recording it's processed by the Cocolase which is also untouched.

The final minutes of "Cilia" evolved into the basis for my long-form generative patch "Green Fiber": walkerfarrell.bandcamp.com/album/green-fiber
