Be there when a venerable flea market computer is tasked with analyzing the schematics of something called a Death Star for any weaknesses. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.Tue, 17 Nov 2009 12:31:00 ESTnohttp://www.f7sound.com/podcasts.htmYou may want to wait for the good part, and it's only a glitch away. Listen asap as this kind of sound mangling could become a federal crime. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comTue, 29 Sep 2009 12:01:00 EDTnohttp://www.f7sound.com/podcasts.htmAfter a long break, I bring you a 'mixtape' of DLC episodes. A clash of sounds to end the Summer and it's a long one. I'm considering releasing this as an EP. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comSun, 20 Sep 2009 13:45:00 EDTnohttp://www.f7sound.com/podcasts.htmLast time, I presented the "lost episode". This episode, however, might be the one that you'd wish I lost to begin with. Happy 2009! email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comMon, 12 Jan 2009 14:50:00 EDTnohttp://www.f7sound.com/podcasts.htmThis was meant to be Episode 93, but something happened and I lost it. So 93 became something else and this one was tucked away on a backup DVD for 2 years. I happened on it by chance and made some tweaks and added a few things. So, here's the Lost Episode of the DLC. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comFri, 19 Dec 2008 15:20:00 EDTnohttp://www.f7sound.com/podcasts.htmCiti gets bailed out and we wait to see who's next. About 25 years ago, John Cougar "needed a lover that won't drive him crazy". And just last year we found out that Bono didn't hold the record. He WAS the record! Don't worry. What you're hearing has nothing to do with any of this. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comTue, 25 Nov 2008 11:50:00 EDTnohttp://www.f7sound.com/podcasts.htmSince I'm not getting my 2008 bonus, I figured it'd be a good time to pull out Circuit Bent SputniK and have a blast. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comMon, 17 Nov 2008 15:15:00 EDTnohttp://www.f7sound.com/podcasts.htmOnce again, I attack my MPC 1000. Over 1300 sounds, some dating back more than 20 years are unleashed in mutant form. I played all of this live... no edits! Be afraid. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comTue, 4 Nov 2008 14:10:00 EDTnohttp://www.f7sound.com/podcasts.htmHere's a glitchy little treat to start a new week. I played this all live on the MPC 1000 as you hear it. All the sounds are mine, some going back over 20 years. All chopped up and reassembled for your listening pleasure. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comMon, 20 Oct 2008 13:12:00 EDTnohttp://www.f7sound.com/podcasts.htmThis one was especially fun. Skirting the breakcore, glitchcore, chipcore, corecore, and chaos genres, this episode was done completely live on the Akai MPC1000. I even cut 3 of my fingers from hitting the pads so hard. All the samples are my own creations and you may even recognize some tiny chunks from earlier episodes of the DLC - since I love to hack up my own work. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comTue, 30 Sep 2008 14:42:00 EDTnohttp://www.f7sound.com/podcasts.htmIt's yet another brain bender. This is the first time I've used my new Akai MPC 1000 in a production - as I've only had it a few days. But, there's lots more than the MPC going on, of course like field recordings and synthesizer stuff. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comFri, 19 Sep 2008 15:40:00 EDTnohttp://www.f7sound.com/podcasts.htmYou're hearing a perfect example of why I don't ever get invited to the annual neighborhood barbeque.

You decide. What I do know is that I've spent far too much time tweaking this ensemble. What I also know is that I'll be spending even more. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comThu, 28 Feb 2008 12:05:00 ESTnohttp://www.f7sound.com/podcasts.htmA step forward in processing audio. This is like show 109 (show 109 was the source audio), but where 109 had over a thousand edits, this show has none. That's right, this was all done live using the audio from DLC-109. I created the processor using Reaktor 5 and processing is all live and somewhat ramdom. No 2 performances are the same even if the same source audio is used. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comTue, 12 Feb 2008 11:25:00 ESTnohttp://www.f7sound.com/podcasts.htmYou'd think I like editing audio or something. Why? Well, if you saw the Pro Tools session for this podcast, you'd see ass loads of edits. But it's all about the sound.

He probably lived because he listened to this episode of DLC.

I take 'the sounds in my head' clip and abuse it. Chop it up, move bits around, chop some more. Then cut it up and rearrange stuff again. Then play bit of it while recording to a CD. Then take that CD and scratch it up and re-record it. You get the picture. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comMon, 5 Nov 2007 14:05:00 ESTnohttp://www.f7sound.com/podcasts.htmWhat a real ear-bender we've got today! Processed field recordings, glitchy Reaktor, and some mutant tape effects all for you. It reminds me of that tiny mosquito that followed me the other day. Annoying as hell.

At least that's how the tale goes. I purchased a strange, beat up orb from a flea market for 2 dollars. Opened it up and rewired it's guts. Now it's a musical instrument! Or so the tale goes, because it may be a software emulation.

All you have to do is replace the needle cartridge with a tape head. Then glue numerous strips of analog tape to a piece of cardboard.
