about

Jim Reeve-Baker
Cascaded Music: Electronic Works and Interludes

An exploration of the properties and musical possibilities of MP3 compression artefacts.

The project is investigating the production and aesthetic of MP3 data compression artefacts and how they can be used for creative purposes. By cascading colours of noise and transient signals through MP3 encoders set to low bitrates and sample rates, effects and artefacts have been generated and act as the base material for composing with. Additional signal processing is kept to time stretching and arrangement, allowing greater opportunity in time and space to hear the artefacts. The work seeks to explore the sonic possibilities of a process and aesthetic that is essential to and ubiquitous throughout digital communication, and attempts to harness a set of sounds whose creative potential can still yet be examined.

Probably one of the most "Big Deals" as far as I know being a BC user. For a ridiculous price—four bucks—you get 40 awesome tracks under SP's signature with all its meaning. This compilation is a really MUST-HAVE. My favorite track has been chosen by pure randomness. Enjoy this gift! sjah83
