whorlsTim Catlin & Machinefabriek “Whorls” LP The third edition of this wonderful collaboration between Australian sound artist Catlin and the prolific Machinefabriek (Rutger Zuydervelt) continues their practice of Catlin providing source materials for Zuydervelt to deftly weave into delicate ambient episodes. For this LP, Catlin expands his palette beyond guitar to include bowed piano metals, vibrassa (Catlin’s bowed metal rods) and zither.

Ernie Althoff “Skitter” CD  A new set of Althoff’s percussive machines in various combinations, setting bamboo, corrugated cardboard, metal screws, ping pong balls and more against each other. Powered by turntables, cassette recorders and other small motors, these materials are close-mic’d to create the complex yet subtle rhythms and exquisite sonic textures that Althoff has made his own.

Discography up-to-date and complete

insituI’ve finally migrated all my discography data to this new site, trying to sort it into a few separate pages that will make it easier to navigate – albums, EPs/shorter releases, the Archive Series, and compilation tracks. Twenty-plus years of recordings!

The main discography page also has a few of my key works streaming for free as an introduction to my work for new listeners (otherwise it can all be a bit overwhelming!).

Where available, download/streaming links have been provided. To purchase physical copies that are still available, browse my page at Shame File Music.
