about

FAULTY MACHINE RECORDINGS SERVICE is my experimental recording and distribution service.

After years of only allowing myself to produce music within the studio ecosystem – a prohibitively expensive luxury that prevented me from releasing new albums for nearly 20 years – I’m returning to my indie/lo-fi roots. FAULTY MACHINE is the solution: a monthly sonic sandbox that serves as a platform for all my musical musings.

A new edition of FAULTY MACHINE will appear at the end of every month here on my Bandcamp page. I’ll deliver a digital care package of whatever I’ve been working on that month: pop song demos, house music diversions, abstract soundscapes, field recordings, etc. Anyone can download this “standard” edition free-of-charge.

For an additional paid subscription of $5/month, patrons will get the entire back-catalogue of my project, SCIENCE PARK, plus my 30th-birthday retrospective and other special, subscriber-only releases to be announced, including some fascinating curios from the archives.

This is the tenth FMRS release, featuring two tracks produced during December 2020, plus one from the FMRS Archives.

"High Voltage Fantasia" was written on the occasion of my 13th anniversary as an L.A. resident. It contains an excerpt from an "Audio Drunk Dial" recorded on 14 May 2008 in my Hollywood apartment. "Blue Line" contains field recordings made on the MBTA Blue Line in Boston, MA, on 17 July 2019. The archival piece is a recording of lawnmowers and birds made in the morning on the day of my mother's death in Barrington Hills, IL.
