Music News: Freq Modif Active

Been a while since my project Freq Modif has been active; but that sleeping beast awakes. Right now there is a Facebook page and a Soundcloud page. I have 25+ tracks ready to go online; I’m going to add them a few at a time–much like a glacier melts–so does the Freq Modif archive to create a constant stream…

And the patch above was my dad’s; he was a Radarman in the Navy.  I love the patch and it hangs in the studio with all the electronics equipment!

KUCB Ambient & Techno Show: March 13, 1994


I was able to go through all my old mixtapes and I removed and trashed all the outer plastic cases; now I have three shoeboxes full of tapes to someday go digital with…picked one out at random and here it is. No markings other than March 13, 1994. I’ll work on a set list but there are several I’m not likely going to remember…perhaps you can help?

The first several sets were chill/ambient and then led into more techno/dance stuff later on in the show.

Enjoy!

Kraftwerk – Ralf & Florian
? (on the tip of my tongue)
?
Aphex Twin – SAW2
Delerium – Stone Tower
? (again, on the tip of my tongue)
Locust – Weathered Well
Germ – Gone
?

< — Heads off in a techno/trance direction — >
Sequential – 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea
The Hallucination Generation ‎– Black Holes And Baby Universes
? (again, on the tip of my tongue)
Resistance D
?

Acrid Abeyance – Exposure Track

30m Series – Alt.TechHouse Mixes

Back in December 2010 I make several mixes with new music I acquired during the kids fall break (trip to Amoeba San Francisco and various Santa Cruz stores) and throughout the year.  With this mix, broken into two ~30 minute segments, I did some techno alternative vocal tracks and then worked towards more accessible vocal club tracks.  The kids are into these!


Part 1 Track Listing:

Massive Attach featuring Hope Sandoval – Paradise Circus(Breakage’s Tight Rope Remix) – EMI 2010

Trentemøller – Moan (Trentemøller Dub Remix) – Poker Flat Recordings 2007

Dusty Kid – Kore – Boxer Recordings 2007

Ladytron – Softpower (Brendan Long and Loz Remix) – Pylon Records 2007

Miss Kittin – Playmate of the Century – Nobody’s Bizzness 2009

Alexander Maier – Road of Injury – Buzzin Fly Records 2007

June 24, 2011 SW Nebraska Mesocyclone Timelapse – Freq Modif video

Had a great chase with Adam Boggs today, went to the Nebraska panhandle for a slight risk. Nothing was materializing so we decided to go after this discrete supercell well behind the front line of storms. Was able to get about 60 minutes of video shown here.

The music is my band Freq Modif with a track appropriately named Mesocyclone which I’ve been wanting to release for a while.

3 Hours of Records…

There is an advantage to moving my turntables and sound upstairs, I get to listen to more music as I’m not down in the studio being anti-social.  The drawback is my studio is all the way across the house and down one floor; so I just play the records that are sitting upstairs that I bring up occassionally.  This makes making genrefied mixes a little difficult because I don’t have the record stacks at my fingertips and running up and down stairs makes djing a bit more difficult. So, before I moved this selection of records back downstairs, I recorded some.

So here are a couple of mixes (about 3 hours worth) that I did with a little bit of everything genre-wise.  Enjoy!
