rfurtkamp

A bad person with bad guitars playing really outside weird twenty years gone. Are we not men, or free jazz, or weird noise, or just clueless? Your call.

Recorded improv-style, pseudo-live (no edits to tracks, either it's good or the whole session is pitched), one pass at a time with old, forgotten gear.

Synths courtesy mistracked guitars via 90s Boss snyth bass units (ME-6B etc), stacked glitchy fuzz pedals, and pitch-shifted harmonizing delay. Newer synthy stuff courtesy Roland GR-55 and all the old toys, plus various Roland keys and a Behringer DeepMind 12.

$29 LFO-enabled rack delays and ART gear from 1991, I love you.

And yes, I spend a lot of time with the red light on.

Note on available material and web links:

This is my current sketchpad for music as I release it. I've gotten lazy and generally only post stuff here these days.

Back catalog can be found at the links below. There are 25+ full length albums, live sets, etc. for free available. Additional songs available the Google music link (free) or Bandcamp link (also free, put zero in the price unless you're insane).
