New Music from Alex Strain
Phoebe collaborator Alex Strain has some new electronic music on offer. This time I have had some passive involvement in the form of going back to some static musical ideas generated in 2004 and offering them to Alex to mutate to his liking. He picked up on one particular chord set, a descending manic pizzicato with paradoxical child-like playfulness. He pretty much made the tune his own, and the results you can get here:
The title is somewhat a joke and in full keeping with the idm-inspired instrumental-title-format fashions of the last 10 years. Also, did you know that Corn has absolutely no nutritional value whatsoever?
Other than that do check out another new song entirely done by Alex: Effective – a wonderful example of his sensitivities and imagination.
