Heyo!

Two new videos this week - sorry for the slight delay in posting these, had to make time around baby stuff for the sample pack editing which I'm also including here!

I connected my face to a synth to generate endless relaxing ambient music, which was a pretty fun time. Used the same patch on a plant as well, and posted a second channel video of the best part of my recording of that particular exploration.

I also was given a new guitar pedal from Knobs (the best pedal demo channel) who is a good friend that lives pretty close to me here in Toronto, and in an awesome career move is now designing pedals himself in collaboration with Chase Bliss. Their new Habit pedal is a strange one, with its own unique and tremendously absorbing workflow, so I thought I'd do a Weird Gear episode about it!

If you're into the sounds in these videos, here are a couple zips containing material you can feel free to sample or just enjoy listening to. There are longer recordings of the face ambient and plant ambient, as well as shorter selects from those sessions in more of a sample pack format, and there's a piece made with Habit and a small modular synth.

Faceplant zip.

See you soon with another video!
