OK so change of fuction for this page im going to be using it to diffuse some of my electroacoustic stuff which i dont really want in massive circulation until i get some feedback and finish it off...

This section contains a brief write up of my pieces to hopefully let you guys know what i was after so hopefully you can judge the output a bit better...

Track 1is The Game

This is a throw-away bit of traditional coreline work which couldent have less to do with Electroacoustics, however this is porbably the best place for it, and, to anyone stumbeling across coreline from this profile alone, i would direct you to www.coreline.net where you can get a slice of the mainstreem and less of me waffeling.

With the collapse of Music Non Stop i am eger to give a bit of think-time to some of my peers' suggestions that i should attempt to bring coreline to a wider audience. Not for a moment entertaining the suggestion that i dont like charging arround Germany to play teeney venues, nor to deride the fantastic people i have met along the way, (Entertaining optimism for a moment, i hope that when i am far too famous to play in places like Kült and Störklang ill stil show up for secreet gigs with all my aging friends and dance the night away to horrible horrible noise music :D) but, if my music is to suceed as a commercial endevour, it needs an audience (which i hope i have in some small measure) and a distrobution network (which has just collapsed) so, the not so obyous conclusion of some of my friends, is to seek a new distrobution pathway through the media of a wider audience.

Paratext ascide, the music itself continues in my 'i wish i was terrence fixmer' school of music-thought, focusing on somthing much more minimal then the tracks at the bottom of this page. The audience for this is in sheffield, in the less underground halls of the trance clubs, its still a step on the wrong side of experiemntal for any sembelence of a wide audience, but this is in some small way, still experimental music, i will experiement with the sound and the industry, in the same way a kid with a chemestry set and no prior knowlege would experiment, i dont even know what i want from my music any more, im just enjoying the journey :P

Track 2 is Cerridwins Break:

Cerridwens Break is the first in a three part cycle of interrelated works designed for simultainous diffusion, i will talk more about that at some later point, but for now i would like to focus primilarly on the individual piece i have uploaded here.

The structure of the piece is defragmentary, where as in the first third, the structure is delianated by the natural sounds of the 'sound walk' the goal of the second part of the work is to modify and reorginise the source sound of the piece (the sound walk) at a micro sound level. Thus there is no deliberate structural moovment in the work. This is not truley reflected in the actual piece and i have to put that down to bad habits dieing hard!

My electroacoustic works try to embrace rhythm, in an attempt to make ongoing progress towards my overall goal of consolidation of my electroacoustic work with coreline and thus noise and 'popular' music in the wider context. I should declare that rhythm is a function of microstructure and calles into question my attempt to maintain a defragmentary approach however, avoiding common rhythmic devices such as a key signature denoting regular stress on given notes in a sequence the rhythm itself is partally fragmented.

In the paratextual context the piece is an attempt to create a sound work to 'paint' a view of the ancient welsh/celtic goddess Cerridwen in this case paying particular regard to her precieved domains of birdsong, fertility and motherhood. Obyousley the birdsong sings for itself, however in disassembeling the samples i recorded to create the gradule movement toward glitching noise at the end of the piece. I wanted to avoid the cold and alien ambience which is so easy to reproduce in this style of music and thus i adopted a more light harted approach to the sound editing, incorperating a shuffeling into the rhythmic motives and keeping the processing minimal and slightly humerous in places.

Welcome to my humble voice page, just take a quick moment to look at just how beautiful this site is, purity and simplicity with absolute sophistication, only last.fm comes close. anyway. Coreline has been running since arround 2000 creating something between the rhythymic noise music which grew out of industrial music and the commercial trance music which everyone quite likes but no one would admit it in public :P. Basically this boils down to harsh tribal rhythms with anthemic melodies, litsen to it, the play button is only like two inches above what your reeding now! If you like the sound please think about buying the album, It is totally self funded and released with the aid of UK noise lable infekted sound, it dosent get much more independent then this! Stop a while and say hi, leave a message, listen to the tunes, tell me what you think! If your intrestes are piqued check out these other friendley yay fun links: Coreline.net has sacks of free mp3 downloads! The Livejournal Blog has news about gigs, things and stuff. Coreline on last.fm. Last fm is only slightly less brilliant then this site. The myspace page.
