I make music with synthesizers + real instruments. It's neat.

Friends, new and old! Now that we've settled into 2014 a little bit, I wanted to reshare with you my Circatree music project. I compose instrumental electric music, incorporating acoustic and electronic elements into a multigenre warping of sound. I have not had the opportunity to perform live with my new setup yet, but my goal for 2014 is to have a full audiovisual performance completed by the end of the year.

I recently released a free-for-download glitch/beats/ambient EP titled "Solar Solipsist" with Blind I (www.blindi.co) and a downtempo/guitar-based single titled "Iris" earlier this month.





You can listen to the above releases on SoundCloud, like me on facebook, or follow me on twitter:
www.soundcloud.com/circa_tree
www.facebook.com/circatree
www.twitter.com/circatree

I really would like to stay in touch with you guys because if everything goes as planned this project will take off. It's been a few years in the making and finally a solid artistic vision is coming together..imagine botique art/coffee house/lounge music meets car bumping/club music.

And if anyone wants to jam that lives near Seattle, hit me up! A pic of the bedroom studio, minus the MPC:

Sweet stuff!

I don't play, but I do live in Seattle, so if you're doing a show somewhere, let me know!

flying lotus, squarepusher, amon tobin, aphex twin, the flashbulb

^ I listen to these guys the most these days but my influences are 60s acid rock, detroit techno, hip hop production, classical, and jazz...really everything though.

Definitely!

I started experimenting with resampling almost everything I play on my MPC this year. My next project is already feeling a lot more smooth and intricate.

I do think my tracks on my solar solipsist EP are pretty glitchy, especially the rick mal remix (fourth track -- almost all chopped samples of synths I played and timestretched/fucked with drums) and "Happenings and Such" (the first track) but yeah, I'm always trying to progress and evolve! Cheers.
