    Tyto alba - Learning Our Language

    So. I haven’t posted any new original music up here in a while.

    SORRY.

    I’ve been busy OK? Law School. Volunteering. Working out. Drinking. Starcraft. Drinking while playing Starcraft. Protesting. Boxing. Stress induced celibacy. Chain smoking. You know… Life man.

    Anywho. Here’s something I’ve been working on against all my doctor’s orders. It’s not finished (nothing ever seems to be finished) but I like it a lot. Please try to find a moment to listen? If you find that moment, please find another to let me know what you think? Reblogs = hugz, kisses and sexy pics in your ask box.

    PREEMPTIVE THANKS!

    I really like this Scott! First came the toe tap, then the head nod, then full-fledged wanting to dance.

    Why thank you!

    So happy to bring a little dancing into the world.

    Tyto alba - 90 Miles

    so a few days ago i went to a charming little Cuban restaurant with Dennis on Armitage called 90 miles. i was entranced by the little clave rhythms clanging through the summer air and came home to immeadiately work on a song poorly imitating such a rhythm. attentive readers might remember this.

    anyways, for anyone who was curious this is the product of about 3 hours of musical labor. it’s really sloppy and rough around the edges but i think i grope at the idea of Cuban car chase in the 70s pretty well. go team.

    Tyto alba - Brought Back

    holy hell. finally got this track into a presentable preview version of itself. there is waaaaaaay too much nonsense minutia in this song that i tried to fuss and fidget over.

    GOTTA LEARN TO SIMPLIFY MAN.

    anyways! i need:

    • a sandwich
    • an editor / producer
    • a girlfriend

    in that order.

    anyways. let me know if y’all enjoy this. it’s not perfect but i think there’s something there worth pursuing.

    Tyto alba - essential

    this still needs work but i admit i have a fondness for this little ditty.

    hope you enjoy listening to it as much as i enjoyed writing it.

    tyto alba - feynman

    so.

    after finishing a long overdue letter to my friend in Zambia earlier, i came home and felt possessed to just sit down and write a goofy piece of electronic music. the above file is the fruit of about 4 hours of my labor, massive amounts of caffeine and a few cigarettes.

    i really enjoy these little exercises and, barring protest from my followers, i’m going to continue sharing them here under the alias tyto alba. as always, feedback is welcome. 

    (all content was composed by myself with the exception of the Feyman sample.)

    preview of a bridge from the upcoming album.

    PLEASE EXCUSE THE MASSIVELY LOUD METRONOME.

    I CAN’T REMOVE IT FROM THE CLICK TRACK.

    AURGH.

    (gosh. i think it’s prolly too late for people to still be up listening to music.)
