about

Greetings friends! Got some new to you / old to me compositions! A weird clearing house of earlier musicks of mine from the Before Times, all from the aught years. The first three tracks were a surprise when I rediscovered them on a burned disc I'd had sitting around, so all three of these might as well see the light of day.

Then there's "Ginger," one of only two tracks to feature sax on this whole sham-a-lam. The backing track on this is all composed on Fractal Music 2000, a piece of freeware software developed by a Spanish mathematician. I used that on a few others here as well, it's pretty recognizable as a production tool, so see if you can spot it elsewhere. A better live version of "Ginger" is available on my Soundcloud page if you're interested.

The second one, "Number Crunching," was done on Rhythm Rascal, a lovely drum sequencer app I thought worth purchasing, so shoutout to them.

And the last track is one I collaborated on with Oak Kelsey aka Monaural Marauder, an instrumental ska version of The Beatles' classic "Taxman." I'll give props to Oak for trombone, bass, Moog keyboard, samples, production. I'm on the lackluster rhythm guitar (song still somehow slaps tho, all due to Oak)! and I'm on alto sax.

Thanks for listening. Be safe today and let's get the hell out and jam tomorrow. I love you.

Well Trained Monkey Minneapolis, Minnesota

Well Trained Monkey is my one person band. My previous approach of multi-tracking saxophones, bass and guitar with electronic elements and drum programming has now been replaced with in-the-moment live takes. It's a mix of island music, funk, jazz, and electronic elements. I've performed live at venues and festivals around the Twin Cities and surrounding areas for 12 years. ... more
