New Release of Old Material
Wed, January 2, 2013 at 11:30 AM I am happy to announce my latest release Isaz, a 4 track EP featuring experiments in sound, processed loops and field recordings. All of these tracks were conceptualized, recorded, programmed and mixed between January and September 2009. Available now as a free download from Bandcamp.
Isaz - Track by Track
01. This is just my voice
This is just a looping, processed sample of me saying "this is just my voice"
02. Cargo
Processed sample of a train running through Carkeek Park in Seattle, WAUSA. This track was recorded with an M-Audio MicroTrack II digital recorder using the standard t-microphone. I used Ableton Live 6 for processing through an Auto Filter, a Simple Delay and a Resonator.
03. Batavia
This is the soundtrack to a memory. Flying in my fathers small plane from Buffalo. NY to Batavia, IL. when I was 6 years old. A mix of excitement and utter dread. I feel like I captured those feelings in this track.
04. Eye
Original Experimental Music/Sound (by Kurt Lorenz) made completely on the iPhone using BeatMaker, NLogSynth, and iGendyn. (Slo-Mo Vocalizations are from the videos audio track.) Each app was recorded directly into an audio channel in Ableton Live and some basic mixing/compression applied. This track is the soundtrack to an experimental film I created entitled "Eye" you can see the video below or here: www.vimeo.com/5243888

Ember Music, Music, Official Release | in Albums, Ember Music, Releases, The Process, Video | Permalink My track “An Untravelable Space” featured in the Bertha Landes 2012 Playlist for the International Fountain at Seattle Center
Tue, September 4, 2012 at 2:31 PM BTW: who was Bertha Landes? First female mayor of a major American city, aka Mayor of Seattle 1926 - 1928: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bertha_Knight_Landes
James Whetzel (http://jameswhetzel.tumblr.com/) has created a Bertha Landes Mix for 2012! This is an all local music mix, and in it are all excellent artists from Seattle, WA, US of A. It’s mostly new tunes, but yes there are a couple tracks from years past that are in there as well.
James is not only listing all the tracks but providing links to make it easy for you to listen to them.
These tracks will play in the International Fountain August 29th & 30th. The fountain will be shut down for the Bumbershoot Festival on August 31st through September 3rd, and will remain off during post-festival cleanup. Fingers crossed, the cleanup will be done, and the mix will play again September 6th - 10th, 2012.

Ember Music Volume 1 - The First Review...
Tue, April 5, 2011 at 12:31 PM Katie Weed has reviewed our compilation Ember Music Volume 1 on her blog Sights and Sounds Dovetail
"This first release by nonprofit label Ember Music is the rare find among multi-artist compilations that plays like a cohesive album rather than the disjointed offerings of its individuals. From the pensive introduction ("Huntitled III" by musician Murat Esmer) to the dark, haunted coda by New Englander MobiusB, the listener is led seamlessly through tracks that manage to differ vastly from one to the next without sacrificing unity. The album plays not only as a whole, but as an intelligent and detailed statement. We are taken on a dark, occasionally gloomy, but always thoughtful tour through this collection."
