ExplicitLigeti’s Ice Violins | Dani sent me a link to a youtube video of ice, in a Ukrainian port, that was squeaking and croaking and making an incredible racket. It was on kottke.org, go check it out. Mister Kottke himself described the sound as " like a pod of dolphins trying to mate with Skrillex", so of course Dani immediately sent it over to me, because she was absolutely positive I could do something "braindouchey" with it. And so I have. It's all just treated samples of the ice, and it came out sounding sort of like an incredibly short Ligeti concerto. | 2/16/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitOne Inspirational Piano | Technically, I think this would need to be a piano duet if this tune were to be played by humans, but whatever. Merry Holiday Thingy to you, my little Braindouche! droplets! I got myself a little present for the holidays, a copy of Mixtikl, a fantastically fun generative music app. And by fun, I mean wowzers powerful. Unfortunately, Mixtikl lives on Dani's iPad, and separating her from her tablet is nearly impossible, but I finally got an afternoon to curl up and play. One Inspirational Piano is the first track to come out that isn't complete donkey s**t. It's still rough, I get that, but I haven't quite mastered the art of automating the generative loops yet. I'm working on it. If you've already had your holiday, I hope it was a good one, and if you're still getting ready, have fun, don't drink to much, and nomatter what they've done to you, your family probably still loves you. | 12/24/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitXmas Unconstrained | You remember how Dani at Life Unconstrained wanted a theme song? I continue to be incredibly proud of it. So I'm on my way out to game night with my incredibly nerdy friends, and I get a call from Dani, asking me if I could make up some music for her new video. Here's the rub: it needs to be Christmas-y. And can you have it for me by tomorrow morning? Sure, I say, send me the video and I'll see what I can do. This here is what I did. Life Unconstrained: Holiday Edition. BOO YA. | 11/13/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitBenny Hill Enough? | One of the things I just adore about podcasting is it's speed and flexibility. It's an audio format just designed for guerrilla activites, and I me some love guerrilla podcasting. The internet can bring you inspiration at the speed of the internet, and if you know what you're doing, you can zap out a response just as fast. Because fast means funny! For instance, it appeared on my facebook feed the other day that a woman asked Cayenne Chris Conroy to explain where his nickname came from. He provided a perfectly good explanation, but for some reason, the woman wasn't satisfied with this answer. She said " I have to admit that I was hoping for a story that was a little more... Monty Python-y, or Benny Hill-y." Brandi Palmer, I hope this brings you the satisfaction you seek. | 11/12/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitPlaid 4 | That which was ambient shall be glitched. Ok, so here's the story. I said to Dani, "Yanno, I want to podcast tonight, but I'm not sure what I'm going to do." She said I should "make something plaid". Ok. I've got an app for that. Seriously. If you are a noise-making sort of person who has an android, you should definitely download Ethereal Dialpad. It's essentially a two-voiced qualtizeable theremin synth, and it's a lot of fun to play with, making little spacey bleeps. One of the visualizations it offers is a multi-colored grid -- it looks like plaid! So I recorded a nice little ambient piece that wasn't especially remarkable. So I messed it up a little. And I did it again. And again! Fourth time's the charm here, which you might have guessed by the title, and out of the nice spacey ambient comes this delightfully crunchy, glitchy mess. I'm quite pleased with it. | 10/22/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitDivinorum | Any resemblance of this short tune to the hallucinogenic haze and then blinding clarity that may or may not be associated with ingestion of legally-grey-area strains of sage are purely coincidental. That it's this accurate is a little scary. What's even more annoying is that the original composition file is corrupt, and therefore this tune is DONE. Hate that. | 9/8/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitLife Unconstrained Themesong, “Take 3″ | Ok you guys, this one is neat because it's an actual commission! That I'm engaged to the commissioner and the payment was that she would do a load of dishes are largely irrelevant. Anyway, so Dani (of lifeunconstrained.com) is gearing up to start a videoblog to help support her new site and business, and she came to me for some theme music. After throwing some sites around for research, she asked if I could just make it. "And make is sound sort of like Pomplemoose!" she cried. So, I did. A light little bit of instrumental electronic pop, with one simple theme and enough moving parts that it can be taken apart and put back together again in a bunch of different ways, to help extend the brand and also add auditory interest to videos. Enjoy! | 7/24/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitTechno Techno Jesus Jesus Techno Sex Techno | OR How I Got Internet Famous On Tumblr For Like A Week. OR Jesus Christ Yet Again I'm An Attention-Sucking W***e. Rosalarian (http://rosalarian.tumblr.com) summed up the entire new Lady Gaga album as "Techno Techno Jesus Jesus Techno Sex Techno", and said she needed to make a track like that. I did it first, because she does webcomics and I do... s**t like this. Originally published on Soundcloud, this has over 700 plays there, which isn't super-remarkable in Soundcloud terms, but that happened in the span of a few weeks, which blows the play rate of any of my other Soundcloud tracks and this podcast right out of the water. | 7/15/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitPhilip Glass – Geometry of Circles – Backwards | If you're a person of a certain age, namely my age, you might remember the trippy animations from Sesame Street of a bunch of rainbow circles on a black background floating around doing abstract stuff, all to this weird pulsing repeating vocal soundtrack. (If you don't remember off the top of your head, go search youtube for "geometry of circles" and then you'll know if you've ever seen it or not.) Anyway, that music for those animations is Philip Glass music. And it's not just any composition of his, those are original compositions created for those animations. Cool, huh? So I was watching the video on youtube, and I know better but I was reading the comments anyway, and one comment said something to the effect of "I listened to this music backwards one day, and got the devil's recipe for brownies". I thought, I have the technology, what does it sound like, backwards? Turns out? Backwards, it sounds pretty much the same. | 7/13/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

I banged that image through my image-readin' plugin, twiddled some nobs, tried to conform to the list, and pretty music came out.

ExplicitPhone Tree, and a bonus challenge for Balticon listeners! | One of the most hated business developments of the past 20 years are those automated touch tone answering things, where you push 5 for more options. It seems there's more to it than that. And so there's more to it than this, I am throwing down the gauntlet! Since this weekend is Balticon, and it feels like everyone I know is having a liver-punishing good time in Maryland without me, I issue this challenge: Anyone who plays this episode of Braindouche! for a crowd at Balticon, and can prove it to me somehow, I'll send you $5. I don't know how you're supposed to prove it, that's up to you. Good luck! UPDATE: Round about 2:30am, the fantasticly fantastic Nutty Nuchtchas brought the FETIDUS party to a screeching halt and completed the challenge! Here's the video proof: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XST358xxCmU She actually managed to do it twice, but thanks to flaky wifi in the Balticon hotel, it took almost 7 hours to download this 7mb file, and she only got halfway through the first time. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vRE2-w33jgU So, Nutty shall be awarded the princely sum of $7.50, in thanks for spread Braindouche! mayhem in my stead.

ExplicitHayam | So, I'm hanging around the internet one evening minding my own goddamn business when Epilonious wanders by and says "I feel like a sassy black lady tonight*. Here! Watch this!" Angie Jordan saying "ham" on "30 Rock" for 15 minutes If you're not into experimenting with media to alter your consciousness, you don't need to watch this video. Let me sum it up: Angie Jordan saying "ham" on "30 Rock" for 15 minutes, and she pronounces "ham" with two syllables. Apparently, it's become a thing for people to obsess over. Whatever. It's a neat video if you're into that sort of thing. Anyway, Epilonious and I are geeking out over this and he says, and I quote: "I think... I think there needs to be a funky base beat hayumm song. I WANT A REEEEMIIIIIIX." I immediately cursed his name fury and rage. And then I got to work, because, clearly, he was correct. I hate his ass, but that remix did need to happen. I also happened to know that to make him happy, it didn't need to be good, it just had to be there, yanno? 45 minutes and one stolen sample from youtube later, this is what happened. I threw it up on soundcloud, tweeted about it, and yelled at Epilonious until he finally listened. He loved it immediately and scampered all over the internet to share the joy --no, wait, not all over the internet, just all over Wanda Wisdom's Facebook (and website). Because it was all her f*****g idea in the first place! Curse you Wanda Wisdom! Anyway, this classic bad house tune is about as close to live as you'll ever see me do. All the loops were live-triggered! That's why there's mistakes! But for less than an hour, of work? It's not bad. It's crap, but it's fun crap, and that is what's important. * This may not be a completely accurate quote, but a) he did express that sentiment that evening and b) he has said that exact thing repeatedly in the past. | 4/16/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
| 22 | ExplicitVideoMusic Video: Consider | Lets wrap this puppy up. If you don't happen to follow me on twitter (and the odds are pretty low), you probably wouldn't have known that I've released a new music video. Unlike any other video I've done, and yes I've done a couple I haven't released, Consider and it's accompanying video happened almost simultaneously. Anyway, the video hit youtube in March, and it's hitting the podcast now. Because damn it to hell, you people like videos. The long shot of the grass is used with lots of thanks to VertigoElectric, who for some reason thought this video of grass growing was a pretty good idea all on its own. | 4/15/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitAssay | Assay. Droney, ambient, deep, lots of texture, a little rhythm, a little tune, nice right? Nicer yet: this is what yesterday's post Consider is built from. More or less, anyway -- Consider is built on a previous version of Assay. Unfortunately, this led to a problem: I had two very different tracks called Consider on my hands. As I think you can see, the stronger track won that battle, so I hit the thesaurus, and Assay it is. Tomorrow is a special treat. Stay tuned. | 4/14/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitAmbient Chaser: Vistas 12 | Wow. This track is a last for a lot of things. It's the last Ambient Chaser. It's the last of the Vistas tracks that I can find. It's also the last of the daily posts for a little while. Time is odd in a way. These tracks you've been listening to for the last 20 days were made over the course of the last two and a half years. On March 24th, I took the day off and spent it getting all these tracks ready and uploaded and posted. You are going to hear this work in the future. The internet does that. Anyway, I'm rather fond of this simple little track. I like how the reflecting delays come back, and the tune is nice. Braindouche! out.

ExplicitFestival of Lights, take 2 | When I released Festival Of Lights, I said I would try to remake it with less drums, because the drums end up getting bass all over everything, and that made it weird and boomy in the middle. So here we are, I've redone it, and I don't like it. There's a new, plasticy hum thing going on that I don't know where it came from and it's just gross and I'm not sure how to get rid of it. But nonetheless, I've done it, I'm sharing it. The first take is almost always the best one, folks. Words to live by. | 4/2/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitWallowing In Starstuff | Carl Sagan said, at some point, that we are all made of "star stuff", but he either didn't really say it or he said that sort of thing a lot , because I haven't been able to find a definitive quote. Anyway, Carl Sagan also did Cosmos, and Cosmos had a whole boatload of delightfully cheese spaced out synth music, and this is my crack at it. It's a wacky combination of the MIDI-est strings I could find, a free 2-oscilator synth I found online and programmed myself for that extra incompetence in the neer-neer-neer sounds, and the background drone is a sample from the second episode where Carl says "astonishingly different".

ExplicitBraindouche! Executive PowerPoint(tm) Loops Series: Bonus, Sparklehouse Deconstructed | Ok, so there were only three items in this series, but I wanted you to listen to something. This is an ambient deconstruction of the Sparklehouse loop from yesterday. Sparklehouse is built from loops and samples itself -- not a particularly unusual thing in and of itself, but unusual for me. I don't normally work with pre-recorded sounds, with the exception of when I'm remixing finished pieces I myself have recorded (something I do quite frequently, but again, the original isn't sample-based). Sound is really interesting, and interesting sounds are full of more interesting sounds, if you know how to get at them. Well-made, high-fidelity sounds can be bent, folded, spindled and mutilated into all sorts of cool new configurations, and this is what I do. This clip? Not interesting. I threw it through the Braindouche!alyzer, and there's nothing new here to be had, nothing wonderful to discover. It's just the little chunks of sound happening, more spread out, but it's basically the same. Maybe more annoying. There are lots of arguments about whether loop-based music has any artistic veracity, and I think that it does. It takes skill, practice, a good ear and some vision to make good music from loops and samples. But, as artifacts unto themselves, I find these recordings wanting. Just... bleh. | 3/29/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitBraindouche! Executive PowerPoint(tm) Loops Series: Loop 3, Sparklehouse | Next up on the Braindouche!

Sales Guy: Man, our new product needs a theme song! I read about it in this book, you see. Department Director: So what song did you have in mind? Sales: Oh christ Bill, it doesn't really matter, does it? We just gotta pick something and associate the song with the product, you know? So the customer hears that song and thinks of our thing. It'll be great! Like psychological warfare! Director: ... Sales: How about Bruce Springsteen? Director: We can't afford Bruce Springsteen. Sales: The Beatles? Everyone loves them. Director: You must be joking. Sales: What, no? Ok, Garth Brooks? Director: We couldn't afford Billy Ray Cyrus. Sales: F**k! So what can we afford, then?

This is more of a tech backgrounder for one of those really overproduced, overhyped production-number-type gadget release announcements. You can feel it building the tension, right?

ExplicitThe things you find when you clean house | So I was neatening up around the Braindouche! abode, and found this little gem of a track in the folder where I keep all my published podcasts. I have no idea how it got in there, but I thought I'd share it with you. The Monkey Song, by The Bernard Sisters. The Bernard Sisters are Crystal and Robyn Bernard. Crystal Bernard might sound familiar -- she was the bitchy blond from Wings, remember? Robyn also apparently did a lot of work with General Hospital, too. So, she and her sister spent their childhoods running around to tent revivals and gospel... things, singing cute little songs with their preacher father and none other than Jerry Falwell. Crystal still goes on the road to sing gospel music with her dad now and then to this day. It's just so cute, isn't it? When evolution just gets to be too much for you, turn this puppy on and be reassured that you ain't kin to no monkey. And if you can't get enough of this, I have a track somewhere of The Bernard Sisters decrying ecumenicalism, too, and it's adorable. | 3/9/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Explicitdancewhowantshortroundbells | Yes, that's the name of the track. Here's some backstory: There's this guy named Fabeku Fantumise (oh come on, say it, fah-BAY-koo fah-too-MEE-shay) and he runs sankofasong.com. I found myself on his blog a while back, something about how we should all be more like his dentist, and started exploring. Turns out, this dude does sound. Being the sort who's always interested in people on the internet who do sound, he had my attention. Turns out, this guy is a shaman of some sort, using sacred song and sound to fix whatever needs fixing. I can dig that. He had some samples of his work to download, so I snagged them and listened and started fiddling around and, well, this happened. The funny part? Fabeku is perhaps one of the most relentlessly positive, enthusiastic dudes around, and when I previewed this creeping dark eldritch nightmare of a track for him, made entirely out of his own voice and drumming? He loved it. Go figure. So why is it called dancewhowantshortroundbells? Because that's what I heard when I listened to the track. What did you hear? | 3/3/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

By the way, you haven't heard much from me recently because ALL OF BRAINDOUCHE! WAS IN THE SHOP. There was a catastrophic drive failure and badness, but it's all put back together now.

ExplicitAn improvised lament for an oak tree on the fall equinox | I am so not kidding. It so happens that I got a new MIDI keyboard controller recently, and it was delivered on the Fall Equinox (I live with pagans, this is how I know). As is proper for a geek getting a new toy, I played with it lots. That same day, the borough came out to my street and cut down the lovely old oak tree that lived in front of the house of my neighbor Nancy. Nancy is a hoot. She's 91, smokes unfiltered cigarettes, moved into that very house when she was four, swears like a sailor and is as Polish as... an incredibly Polish noun or verb. I love her. Anyway, so, I'm playing with my keyboard, and the household pagans are grumping around about the oak tree, and all of a sudden I remembered a little bit of the music theory I'd learned so long ago. Out comes this very sad little piano piece. Ok, fine, I completely exploited the death of a hundred-year-old life form to give a fictional context to a little throw-away piece of music. Sue me. UPDATE: I can't leave well-enough alone, and have revised this tune, and uploaded improvised-lament-mark2. It'll be interesting to see if it shows up in your feed reader. | 11/11/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitRELENTLESSLY HAPPY CHILLOUT!!!one1! | For the past couple of days, I've been digging around in the "in process" folder of music and sounds that I keep. Everybody does that, right? There's a pile where you throw all your ideas, so you can get them out of your head or you're just too lady to complete them at the time you had them or something. A big ugly collection of unfinished projects and half-formed thoughts. Anyway, I go in now and then, listen to the lot of it, and try to call as many of those projects done as possible, so I can publish them and move on without the creative burden of carrying these things with me. Also, it's a really efficient way to get new content for the podcast. SO. Tonight is the first tune from the most recent purge, called Chillout 2. What happened to Chillout 1? You don't want to know. Why is it called Chillout 2 when clearly it's an enragingly perky bit of newage pop fluff? No idea. Why am I publishing it? Because I've radically changed it twice in as many days, and I will keep revising it forever if I don't get it off my desktop right now. (But it really is better than it was two days ago, I promise.) Whatever. It's light, tinkly happy music. If you don't like it, at least you can console yourself with the knowledge that it's half as long as the original version I was going to post. | 11/4/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitDream a little dream of Braindouche! | (this is a guest episode, but I'm not making it an Episode 100 because I'm lazy.) Follow along with me. Lets say that your humble podcaster has suddenly found herself at the mercy of an incredibly huge project. Being self-employed, she finds it nearly impossible to say no to giant projects that will ruin her life for months at a time, because those sorts of projects tend to pay really, really well. Lets then say that your humble podcaster, considering the scale of the massive project as well as the budget, decided to hire an assistant to assist in various tasks both professional and personal. Said assistant is then tasked with everything from running routine backups to running to the grocery store. This sort of indentured servitude pleases your humble podcaster greatly. Let us then further say that, among many other projects, there are audio-related tasks that your humble podcaster wishes to delegate to her assistant, knowing that her assistant is both musically trained and kind of geeky. To that end, the assistant must be trained in the various programs and techniques required to work with audio to your humble podcaster's strict and incredibly fussy standards. And let us finally propose that the assistant is infact a longstanding fan of your humble podcaster's humble little podcast. Therefore, it stands to reason that, as a training exercise, a podcast be created. A podcast with guidelines as follows: "You've heard my show. Just keep the final thing under an hour and I'm only paying you for the first two hours you work on this." The result? My friend, my landlord, my hired-other-wife, she has made a podcast. She has aurally speculated as to what my dreams are like. It's weird, it's in poor taste, it violates copyrights on 2 continents, and it's FREAKING AWESOME. | 9/25/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitOh God It’s A Robot | The only explanation I have for this title is that this track sounds very reminiscent of BBC Radiophonic Workshop music in their more textural, less composery-themey moods. That therefore clearly leads to thoughts of cheap BBC scifi shows, and their associated cheap costumes and FX. I suppose that means I could have just as easily titled this track "Look, A Walking Cardboard Box". | 6/28/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitNothing Left To Take Away | If you recall Vistas, and the abandoned project that spawned it, you pretty much have all the information you need to parse this piece of beautiful, digital New Age music. Nothing Left To Take Away is, as a title, a statement on self-editing in digital music, and how there generally isn't enough of it, and that there's a habit among digital composers to try to cram 3 or 4 songs' worth of ideas into one piece, and they shouldn't. Even as an enthusiast of minimalism, I have the same problem. The reason I bring it up? This tune needed a lot of scrubbing before it was ready for prime time. It was very crapped up. It is not now, and that is good. | 6/26/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

Hell Has A Power Grid is industrial and dark and creepy, and it sort of sounds like a warehouse that had, I don't know, a lot of wiring and s**t in it, right after some big freaking thing rampaged through and f****d s**t up. Also? Pure synthesis. I can't tell you how much I love sample-free industrial. | 6/23/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitA False Sense of Security | One of FL Studio's strengths AND weaknesses is all of the different ways you are presented to export audio out of a project. It's relatively straightforward to pull individual elements out of a mix, and it's fairly simple to pull different drafts out of your project. It's also pretty easy to completely screw up your export before you close your project without saving, leaving you with a small audio file that has absolutely nothing to do with what you were trying to accomplish, forcing you to redo your project and release a vastly inferior second take. Because its never as good the second time. | 6/8/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitYettu | To continue on the naming scheme, this is Yettu. Yettu is Malayalam for the number eight. I chose this name because it sounded pretty. (Also, I'm an irrationally big fan of Yatta.) You may have noticed a meta-naming-scheme thing going on, whereas this and the three previous pieces are all numerical. It's not spooky. The reason is because I dug up these four tracks from the depths of my hard drive, and they were called Dragged Sample 4, 6, 7, and 8. That's all. That's it. There's no rhyme or reason to this.

ExplicitPunishment in Engine Room 4 | So, ok, like, imagine you're on a big f****n' ship, right? Air, water, space, whatever, doesn't matter, it just has to be big. And imagine that you went and you were just totally tripping out on the whole ride, right? And, like, the only thing that could possibly make it better would be to get totally stoned, right? Completely wasted, just tear a hole in the f****n' universe annihilated. And so, you're tripping out on this big ship, right? So imagine the captain catches you, and he's a total jerk, right? He can't stand that you're blowing your own mind, so he decides you need to learn a lesson, and throws you into the engine room to "cool off". And in the engine room, the engines produce these massive huge EM fields, and the whole thing starts duking it out with your high, man, and you're caught in the middle. -- This is a piece of what I've learned is probably Dark Ambient music, and it possibly could even be classified as Isolationism, since to me it sounds like you're trapped in a confined, loud space, and there's something out to get you.

ExplicitSo simple, and yet, so very complex | Here's a little insight into my creative process. Any time I open up a noisemaker on my computer, all I try to do is find a cool sound. That's all, and keeping it that simple is harder than you might think. It's very easy to fall into "trying to make a song" or get caught up in programming a beat or otherwise get distracted by some minutia from discovering great sounds. My solution is to try to work as fast as possible. That's why I post a lot of very simple stuff here, and it tends to be thematically singular. I find something nifty, I make it make sounds, and I export the sound before I can give myself a chance to f**k it up. Tonight's track is an excellent example. It's just a kick, a clap and a hihat, two of which are processed, and fiddled around with in a step sequencer and sent straight to mp3. Cool, huh? | 4/5/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitEpisode 100 – The Mad Poet Promo | Jesus, Mary and Charlie Chaplin, it's episode 100! This time, we have the inimitable Zach Ricks, known far and near as @madpoet, generously creating this Braindouche! promo with his most talented wife, who's name I honestly don't know. Why the heck would he do that? The story goes something like this... Zach, about once a week, gets through the all the work he needs to, and comes up with what he's referred to at least once as "a few spare cycles". Then, he goes on twitter and offers to help. Anyone who has a request, he'll try and help. I've seen him fulfill requests to write stories, finish his own projects, write stuff for other people, and create promos for podcasts, and I don't even know what else because I'm usually too busy to pay enough attention to twitter to see what he's up to. It's a really neat experiment in making and in quick-fire creativity, and amazingly generous, and also one killer sort of promotional gimmick. Thanks, Zach, you're awesome. Did I say promotional? Because Zach also does this fairly new podcast called The Mad Poet Files, and it's just him reading his fiction, and it's exactly the sort of simple, well-produced, to the point, b******t-free podcast I adore. He also does other podcasts too, but I don't listen to them. Stories from The Mad Poet Files are also for sale in ebook formats, and if you're into that sort of thing, I suggest considering dropping a couple of bucks in his ehat. | 4/3/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitSound of Sound | A long time ago, in a podcast far, far away, I had this really ambitious idea to create a podcast that would explore my "perception is reality" take on life, the universe and everything, using this audio clip of an ear nerve firing when it's listening to something. I had a big long script and there was going to be original music and I failed so hard. But that's ok, I kept all the bits and pieces on my virtual mixing desk. The other day, I had the really ambitious idea to completely reorganize my audio archive, and it was a screaming success. Not only did I get everything where it's supposed to be, I found a bunch of audio I thought I'd lost, and I found lots and lots of audio I don't remember making at all, and never did anything with. That means there are lots of podcasts in your immediate future, you lucky person. I also came across a bunch of unfinished and abandoned projects, including this, Sound of Sound. There was a short script with it, and rather than read it myself, I asked my buddy Kelly to read it for me, which she did quickly and with skill, because she's awesome. So what is this? Just a little bit of pseudo-intellectualism with some lovely lo-fi noise. It's a quick little bit of weird. I feel like I haven't been doing much weird stuff lately, and I didn't realize how much I was missing it until now. | 3/20/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

Essentially, I decided one day to create an ambient album, and thus far I've completed one track and done a lot of work that's not done yet. This is it. It's not fully mastered, and the beginning and ending times have issues, I know. Deal. If you can come up with a name for it, I'd greatly appreciate any suggestions you can come up with.

ExplicitSurely | My most recent project, more or less, has been the production of Scouts, Remastered, written by Nobilis Reed. The short version of events is that he's doing a full-cast, full production redo of a novel he wrote a couple of years ago, and I'm the idiot who offered to do all his editing and sound design and mixing and stuff. It's fun, and also a lot of work. So, I'm editing voice tracks the other day, and one comes through completely mangled. All noise. I don't know what happened, and neither does the guy who recorded it, but once that was resolved, I listened to the ruined track again. It was interesting noise, if you can believe that. (If you listen to this podcast, you'll probably believe anything.) So I says to the guy, I'm keeping this track for Braindouche!, it's interesting noise and I'll make something out of it. This is the result.If you've been listening a long time, you're probably familiar with Instant Space Orchestra, an ambient piece I did a couple of years ago. This piece is essentially the same sort of music, using the same techniques, but with a couple of extra years of experience and some additional tools at my disposal. Oh, the title? The original source track is a bunch of lines for a character named Shirley. Also, I realize the track is probably a little too long, and I didn't trim the silent lead in. Considering this is basically a one-note fugue, I'm just going to call it minimalism and move on. All in all, I'd call this a couple of hours very well spent. | 2/8/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

I'll tell you what it is: it's a surprisingly compelling binaural recording of a man at the barber shop, and utterly fantastic. You absolutely must listen to this with headphones on, or you won't get it.

Explicitep 101: Good Will | A little Christmas cheer for you. Wait, what the hell is this Acoustic Tea s**t? Ok, so, for the better part of a year now, Dani and I have been working on launching a little side project, made of audio stories and maybe later books and stuff. It's called Acoustic Tea, and tonight it's finally fired. If you head on over to the website, you'll find the exact same story posted over there, along with all the basics you'd expect in a site. Dani read it, I produced it, and J.E. Ignatius McNeill, aka @dreamrock wrote it. And the music is from Magnatune, and completely awesome. It's actually kind of awesome how the story happened. I was searching high and low for a "seasonal" story to read for Acoustic Tea, either public domain or Creative Commons. I wasn't finding anything, so I lamented as much on Twitter. @DreamRock responded "I can write something for you. Gimme a week or two." And he totally did and totally blew my mind in the process. Anyway, as far as you're concerned, Braindouche! is still going to be exactly what it is, but Acoustic Tea is going to function as my "professional audio portfolio". Because, I mean, you guys understand that I can't send potential clients here out of the gate unless they're real special people, right? The Normals aren't going to get it. So that's for them. And I needed another project, right? Right? Merry merry. | 12/21/09 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitFever Dreams | So, a million years ago, I met this writer on LiveJournal named Katrina Stonoff. I was just starting out podcasting and I had lots of ideas on how this site would turn out . One thing I thought I'd do is take lots of her blog posts and translate them into produced podcast pieces, because she had lots of interesting stories and a direct and sensual sort of writing style that really appealed to me. It was going to be a series I was going to call Stone Soup on Braindouche!. None of it happened. Oh, I did some preliminary work on a few episodes, but they sucked. I didn't have the right equipment, I didn't have the time to do that much heavy production, and frankly I didn't have the experience to produce these very ambitious pieces. The other month, I was going through and doing a little tidying up in my audio production files, and I found one of the old abandoned pieces, and decided to try to finish it. It came together nicely, if a little creepily, I think. It's worth noting that the whole thing was produced so grungy is because my source files were absolutely terrible, especially the ones I recorded at the time. Since I couldn't clean them up, I decided to make them very, very dirty. Anyway, the point is that Katrina wrote all this, more or less, and it's on the internet somewhere. She currently blogs at Stone Soup, but you won't find this story posted there -- and I'm not going to be the one to tell you where to find it, either. Ask her. She blogs about writing novels and the hats she collects and being a mom to some enormously precocious kids and being married to a nuclear engineer genius and having dogs and, yanno, stuff. She's one of my favoritest people in the world. Concerning the sounds... The band is Tundra, the album is Aquaduct, and the tracks are I Know The Way and The Basics,off the Contra label, and the link is here. (Incidentally, I found it on archive.org.) Alan Bainbridge did my voice of God in there, kindly gifted to me via the radiodaddy forum.(I'm trying to find more information about him right now, and I'll update if I can get him better links.) Some sounds came from the freesound project, some came from soundsnap.com, and some just got found on very old .WAV websites all over the internet, particularly the animal samples. Other links of note: hot glue media: I'm a professional nerd, I specialize in wordpress, Dani does graphic design, and we'll do almost anything for money. Sweet Tarragon: We also make jewelry, and we can make it custom for you, for money. The Sweet Couch Experience: It's a truism that if you start and stick with one podcast, you'll have more eventually. Much like Braindouche! is a podcast I made because I couldn't find any podcasts like it elsewhere and wanted to listen to one, The Sweet Couch Experience is a very simple podcast I couldn't find anywhere else. It's simple, a daily dose of cool, weird, cheesy, remarkably bad or simply peculiar audio I found on the internet. It's a found-sound archive experiment. It's kind of nifty and I look forward to listening to it every day and I program and produce the damn thing. (It also was kind of broken as of a few hours ago, but I think I have everything fixed and straightened out now.) It's past my bedtime. If I've forgotten anything I'll update this later.

ExplicitWhat podcasting is really like | I don't listen to the radio a whole lot, but when I do, lately it's AM. You see, AM become pretty obsolete, which means it's become cheap, which means any wingnut with enough bananas can get on the air. Weird stuff is proliferating again on America's airwaves. Of course, a lot of the wingnuts are christian wingnuts, but they're entertaining in their own way. Heck, I just heard a modern, full-cast audio drama on earlier this week, on the radio. It was good! And produced by Focus on The Family, which I find amusing, but who else does that anymore? Radio is an interesting medium, and I maintain that the more primitive the radio system, the more interesting it continues to be. Look at XM, for instance. 3700 channels, all carefully programmed and crystal clear wherever you are. There is never any question of what you'll hear, where you can hear it, or how it will sound. Now compare that with shortwave radio, all the way at the other end of the spectrum. With shortwave, you never know what you'll find when you turn on your receiver, if someone will be having a conversation or making a broadcast, or where in the world it's coming from, or if more than one person is trying to use the same frequency at the same time, or if you'll get anything at all. You can still sometimes find spy numbers broadcasts in shortwave alongside police scanners and conspiracy theory shows and truckers and music and god knows what else. It's adventurous and interesting. AM is by it's nature less orderly than satellite or FM, and it's been getting crazier at it's gotten cheaper. On a clear day you can listen to broadcasts from all over your planetary quadrant with just the receiver built into your car. You can hear what happens when the signals of two different stations, hundreds or thousands of miles apart, cross their signals. And, thanks to the thriving time-brokered AM market, you can hear some righteously weird s**t. Yes, I'm weird, sometimes I'll listen to radio static because it has a particularly interesting sound to it. Not the point. So all this gave me the idea one day to see if I could simulate the sound of multiple radio stations broadcasting on the same frequency. It's a distinctive sound. And that idea tumbled around in my head for a few months, and I had a pretty good idea of how to make it happen, and then my head turned towards podcasting. Because everything is about podcasting. I thought I might be able to use this (theoretical) technique to make a little statement about what it's like trying to be a podcaster. You see, there are about 50 podcasts out there with really world-class audiences, about a thousand with very worthy numbers, and there's the rest of us hoping one day to be noticed by anyone at all. While the Top 20 Podcast list on iTunes has gone through some changes lately and for the better (no more Oprah or Joel Osteen, thank god), it's still very much a place where the whales just trade places with each other and suck up most of the listening hours themselves. So you want to know what it's like to get heard? This is what it's like to get heard. Your voice pokes out now and then, if you're lucky, but mostly you're drowned out by the big boys, and your message gets destroyed, and then everyone else gets stomped on by Ira Glass. Technically, this was a very easy piece to assemble. It's entirely aleatoric, with only beginnings and endings considered. The levels were processed by the Audacity Auto Duck plugin, just one after the other, and everything was just left to chance, and the effect turned out to be quite interesting. You'll hear my Episode Zero, and you'll hear the most recent episode of This American life, and the most recent episodes of 3 other top 20 podcasts in iTunes, and I will award a brass figlagee with bronze oak leaf palm to the person who can name the other three shows featured herein. Enjoy. Or don't. It doesn't matter. Nobody's listening anyway, not in the grand sense. | 7/30/09 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitBraindouche! Hates Its Listeners II: Die In A Fire | Due to another suspicious spike in the statistics over the last two months, I've been forced to take drastic actions to drive off as many subscribers as possible. Again. Christ, what will it take with you people? This isn't good! It isn't a podcast that will play your voicemails and make you feel included in the warm fuzzy geek community, it won't give you good information, it's not even pleasing to listen to!

| 93 | ExplicitVideoA Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass Double Feature (video) | I have a new obsession, Cartoon Brew, a prolific blog mostly about vintage animation. A couple of days ago, I discovered that Jerry had posted a video called "A Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass Double Feature". If you've payed attention at all, you should know how much I love Herb and The Brass, so it got my attention. It turns out, animator John Hubley won an Oscar for this short in 1966. (No, I don't know who he is, either.) Anyway, this animation was posted on youtube and was rendered in excellent quality, and I wanted to make sure it survives any potential future stupidity, so I'm republishing it here. It's a great little cartoon, with the classic Brass standards "Mexican Shuffle", "Spanish Flea" and "Tijuana Taxi", and I hope you enjoy it. | 4/4/09 | Free | View In iTunes |

Explicit#417 – Redeeming The Time | Time is one of the most valuable commodities that we have. The Apostle Paul said we should run with purpose in every step. Each day we have the same amount of time to use. If we use our emotional energy for the wrong purposes, focused on the negative, dwelling on who hurt us, we're not going to have the energy we need for the right purposes. We're not going to make the best decisions. We're not going to be as creative with our gifts, and our talents won't come out to the full. Part of living purposeful is to keep offenses, bitterness and grudges from robbing our energy. Like the sun shines brightly each day, that is how we ought to be; we shouldn't let anything block our light. With this gift of life comes a responsibility to develop our talents, to pursue our God-given goals, to become everything that He has created us to be. On a regular basis, reevaluate what you're doing and how you're spending your time. Refocus your life. Let go of any distractions. Shake off any self-pity, any discouragement, any disappointments and run your race with purpose. If you'll run with purpose in every step, accepting and appreciating the gift today, then you are redeeming your time, and when you come to the end of your days, you'll be able to say, "I have no regrets. I have spent my life well." | 4/1/09 | Free | View In iTunes |

This is probably because I was mostly caught up in two activities exclusively, being completely closeted nuts and writing about it. I think this piece, Insanity and Beautiful Verses, is the ultimate expression of that time in my life, the utter depths of despair I imagined I was in.

ExplicitNaPodPoMo 16: The Digital Diva of Divine Decorum | The Digital Diva of Divine Decorum has been floating around in the back of my mind for at least a year now. I would have started posting her episodes earlier, but... there were more interesting things happening at the time that kept pushing the detail-rich project off. F**k that noise. Here's the one complete script I have. I don't know if I will revisit her in the future, but if I do, there will be a lot of other silliness included. Like, for instance, an implied animosity between the Diva and the studio enginner. And an extended storyline where the Diva and her husband eventually divorce, messily. and this whole thing where Braindouche! is fulfilling some asinine FCC rule that podcasts need to comply like other broadcasting outlets, so we bring in the Diva to fulfill "community access" requirements. And other stuff. It won't be the worlds biggest nitwit dominant broad giving out horrific BDSM advice only.

ExplicitNaPodPoMo 14: Space 1 | My day kinda went like this: When I wake up in the mornings, I can generally only manage one coherent thought before I get to the office. This morning, it was "I want to play with my music looper program". Ok, fine. I grabbed my laptop. I couldn't stick it in my briefcase, however, because it in my car and also full of the Giant Podcasting Notebook of Doom-Adjacent Qualities. I found a bag and it almost was big enough to fit my laptop (it's one of those 21" dreadnoughts, so "almost" is the best I can honestly do), felt satisfied with that, and trundled off to work with my USB ports sticking all the hell out. So, I'm at work, using my spare thoughts and smoke breaks to decide just what sort of music I want to make. Should I try remixing Mah Na', again? Nah, I told myself, why not make it easy? Listen to some Solipsistic NATION, find a song you like, and copy it like the giant talentless thief you are? Excellent. I haz a plan. Back upstairs, I discover that all the SN I have left are hip hop shows, which are awesome but way too complicated. I was thinking, maybe, house music? Something dumb and danceable? All my other episodes are on my laptop. Which in under my desk. Rock! I transfer some files and, after many tries, find something that will work for my purposes. Lunch finally rolls around, and I fire up Looper Dooper and git to working. I have an hour to make something coherent for NaPodPoMo. And I'm working and working and working and what the hell? I have an excellent beat and a cool-ass baseline going, and another half dozen tracks of a trippy-ass space music piece. I can either wrestle out the dance music was honestly trying to make, or accept my odd fate and export some not too bad space music. Guess which one I picked? Space 1, yet another creative title, no? It sounds pretty cool, but for whatever reason, when I exported it, something got in the way and the encoding glitched up. I decided it didn't sound too bad actually, and left it that way. Then I broke into a cold sweat because, while it's a piece of music full of detunings, noise and other crimes against euphony, it wasn't perfect. A couple of drinks later, and I'm managing to cope some how. So, yeah, space music pwned my ass. | 11/14/08 | Free | View In iTunes |

So I tweaked it, exported it, and present it to you. I've dubbed it Mah Not because I'm in a cutesy mood, I suppose. But really? No clue what happened to make it work.

You'll notice that this one is quite different than the others -- that's why it's not in the numbered series. Up next? Something completely different. Maybe. | 11/7/08 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitNaPodPoMo 6: Reaver Scream 3 | A little while ago, I got it in my head to try making horror sounds. For inspiration, I used the reavers, from the Serenity/Firefly universe. Because I'm a nerd. This is the third in a series of four effects I came up with. I don't think the result came out particularly reaverish, but the name stuck nonetheless. The reason this is interesting is because I used four wildly different techniques to get what are essentially similar sounds, but I'll be damned if I remember what any of them are now. Anyway, enjoy. | 11/6/08 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitNaPodPoMo 5: Spooky Resonant Ambient | Thought I'd give you a little break from the unearthly screams from beyond. Continuing in my tradtion of uncreative names, Spooky Resonant Ambient is pretty much exactly what it sounds like. It's a longer piece that has strong chime or bell flavors to it, and it's probably the last piece of abstract ambient noise I'll do for a while. Unless I get desperate towards the end of the month. | 11/5/08 | Free | View In iTunes |

And finally, imagine that scan blows all your computers and everything else right the heck to hell. This is what it might sound like, I think.

ExplicitBraindouche! Radio: The Silver Book, by Gunter Adler | Noise! Delicious, yummy, avant guarde noise. I've been in the mood to do a BD!Radio for a week or so now, and just never quite got up the focus to dive through my archives to find stuff to play. Tonight, I was wandering through Archive.org (now with a working keyword structure!) and I found this short, experimental album. I love it. I want to be a tenth as awesome as this. I can share it with you! Hey, it's out of character, but I don't have to always be a big stinky pirate, right? Gunter Adler says about his EP, The Silver Book: "For some years I have been carrying a small silver book along with me. It serves as a note book for sketches, ideas, thoughts... These rarely are palpable or brought to conclusion. Thus they are not suited for any direct use. The silver book is an unlimited repository for inspiration, makes me feel contemplative or amuses me. At times I wonder whether somebody who comes across the book should be able to discover a use for it or might find some meaning in the nonsensical words and sentences. This EP consists of material I collected and archived messily in the years 1999 to 2005. Call it IllMuzak, Illbient or an experimental audio book, the designation is without relevance. It is a personal and humoristic work, appropriate before a sumptuous dinner or in order to calm down passengers during the take off of an airplane. My intention was to find blurred, yet nevertheless dense sound qualities offering sufficient room for private associations to the listener, however, simultaneously being powerful enough to carry him away. Although silver is the fairest of colours, the sounds of this EP are rather the opposite..." Track listing: 1. Angeltone 2. I feel for you 3. The Silver Book 4. Zeitnaht 5.

ExplicitTrance Number 2 | For the last little while now, I've wanted to try making loop-based electronic music. This, unfortunately, meant I had to run around and find some software to do it on. Many megabytes later, and I've found something l like. Here's the first "finished" piece to come from that, and the awesome part? It only took me an hour or so to complete. The fact that it's not very good is completely beside the point. It's called Trance 2 because... it's the second one I made, and I'm unoriginal. And, it's worth noting that I don't know if it's actually trance or not, electronic music genres baffle me. I thought it sounded appropriate. In case you were wondering, I declare this track to be a part of the public domain. Use it, sell it if you can, podcast it, remix it, whatever you like. I'd really love it if you leave a comment if you do use this track for something, because I'm always curious about those sorts of things, and it's a reliable way to discover New Awesome Things. Twice now, people have taken entire episodes from my feed and played them on their show without letting me know first. The only reason I found out about that is that I happen to be subscribed to those shows -- who knows where my stuff has landed? I don't care if you play my stuff elsewhere, but I'd love a little warning. I'm nosey and like to be supportive. So yeah, while you're driving by for the download, leave a little love in the comments, or come back with your final product. You'll be rewarded in heaven, honest. | 10/11/08 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitPublic Service Announcement | Something a lot of you don't know is that all this? Is Braindouche! 3.0. Version 2 was... well, basically exactly like this, only far worse. I put together about 6 episodes that I was sorely disappointed with, and I decided to put the whole thing off for a year, to give me time for more research, more thinking, and more better hardware. Version 1 was a podomatic account, which despite my best efforts, is still floating out there in the void. This bit is from version 1. It's the only piece that's ever been published on all three editions of braindouche, and if I'm smart, the only one. It's remarkable because it might be funny, and I assembled Public Service Announcement practically word-by-word using Windows Sound Recorder. Yes, really. I'm kind of fond of it, because it's the first show I've ever put together that really hit the mark for me. Shrug. Maybe it's just me.

ExplicitAugust Houskeeping! | A little update to let you know what's been going on. Christian Ellis loved the spoof! She played it on her Feedback #12 recently on Shallow Thoughts, and you can go listen to it, though she doesn't add much. (shallowthoughts.libsyn.com) Dani, the resident Braindouche! cohost you don't hear from much, read for Nobilis over at his podcast, episode 85. It's all fancy and part of a book release and totally NSFW, and you can get all the information over at his site about it. (nobilis.libsyn.com) And finally, I got a little love letter from Some Audio Guy. He thinks I'm nifty, and I think he's nifty right back at him. In fact, if you're at all interested in audio geekery without the ranting hate or a lot of, yanno, math, check out his blog. (someaudioguy.blogspot.com) That's all.

ExplicitShallow Thoughts about Christiana | Christiana Ellis is a champion podcaster, among other things, and I'm a big fan. Her latest project, Christiana's Shallow Thoughts, has a really distinctive and consistent style, and that makes it really disgustingly easy to spoof. Oddly enough, I don't think I've ever heard anyone try before now. Spoof you, Christiana!

ExplicitBraindouche hates it’s listeners | There has been a suspicious spike in traffic here lately, so I devised a test. If you really want to be here, you'll not only stay subscribed, but you'll go over to iTunes and leave a review detailing the philosophical implications of forcing people to listen to two of the most obnoxious songs ever created at the same time. Bonus points will be awarded if you can include some obfuscatory theory-speak about how the sun will come out in a small world after all, tomorrow. This actually wasn't my idea. The original idea came from Midori. The the not-safe-for-work fetish diva, not the liquor. | 7/6/08 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitBraindouche 010: What is the Universe? | Somewhere back in the hazy mists of time, Sue put out a question on her podcast, Uncomfortable Questions. Sue wanted to know "What is the universe?" I immediately came up with a response, and then just as immediately sat on it for months, because school and lots of other things just got in the way. I never forgot about it, though, and I finally got around to producing my answer for the world at large. My answer? The universe is what it is, but we can only know what we perceive it to be. The universe can ultimately be reduced down to nerve impulses because that is the totality of our experience. That makes me a materialist, and I'm sorry if that hurts your feelings. Go listen to Sue's podcast. It's deep thoughts and big ideas considered by everyday people, and it's good stuff. | 6/16/08 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitBraindouche 009: The Birthright | Holy crap, it's a podcast! Tonight, I have a sort of arty audio collage called The Birthright. As also explained in the actual real voiceover, I have some new and slightly dodgy technology to play with, and I want to apologize for breathing into the mic like I did. I hate that. The music is Babba Gee by Stargarden, from Mangatunes.com. I actually don't like this song all that much, but it works well for this piece, and really, how much control do I actually have in this process? The original audio files come from the Psychedelic Salon podcast #120, Notes To Myself. Thank you, Lorenzo, you are a podcasting hero of mine. I hope you get a chance to listen to it. With a little luck, I'll have a few more McKenna remixes for you guys some time in the future.

It's expressive and different, and it takes me about 30 seconds to produce something that sounds like music, so it massages my instant-gratification buttons like you wouldn't believe.

Instant: You wouldn't believe how quickly this whole piece came together. So, yeah. Just when I'd given up on completing RPM, here's another installment. That makes 17:28.

ExplicitBraindouche 005: RPM track 3 — Decimated Data Stream | This piece is an artifact from the future. Not long after the dust of the destruction from the Neo-Jihadists had settled, North America collapsed into civil war. The New Republic and the CRI (Coalition of Rugged Individualists) battled for control of territory and any remaining infrastructure, both claiming to be the underdog, and both better-funded and more powerful than either was willing to admit. The Jihad destroyed nearly everything. The internet is gone, telephone communication is only possible within small communities if it's available at all, and television simply requires too much valuable electricity to allow a set to be kept on very long, let alone produced. The only reliable systems of communication are radio broadcast and print, and even then, they're prohibitively expensive -- and therefore controlled by the factions. Mostly. A third faction exists, officially classified as "terrorists" by both sides. They're a loose network of rebels, made up mostly of punks, hackers, journalists, and a few other malcontents who refused to swear allegiance to either side during the Jihad. While they're referred to as Anarchs by both the New Republic and the CRI (and occasionally as The Fourth Estate, if you're sure nobody is listening) , they've never actually claimed a name, preferring to mark their work with the phrase "We are Anonymous. I am Legion." Mostly, they work to interfere with both factions, griefing both sides with everything from transmitter sabotage to bizarre Dadaist performances impersonating typical faction propaganda displays. As time went, their actions and techniques became highly sophisticated. Being that radio transmission is the only form of communication left that's faster than gossip, "number stations" have experienced a renaissance during the Second Civil War, mostly because, historically, their codes were notoriously hard to break. This is an example of an intercepted short-wave transmission typical of that time. It's impossible to say where it came from, or from who, without deciphering the code.

ExplicitBraindouche 004: RPM Track 2 — Swoops | Just a little shorty this time. This is what happens when you take pink noise (artificial wind), overdrive the s**t out of it through a phaser set to 11, run it through an analog centerpass filter, then stick it through a "gong model" (whatever the hell that is) to fatten it up and give it that harmonic, shimmery sound. I actually ended up with about 5 minutes of this, but I figured 30 seconds was more than enough. | 2/3/08 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitBraindouche 003: RPM track 1 — Intergalactic Windchimes | And we're off! As the first track in my RPM offerings, I present "Intergalactic Windchimes". This bit is 5:19 long, or approximately 15% of my goal of 35 fresh minutes of audio. Intergalactic Windchimes is built from a highly processed 5 second sample of brown noise. (Noise comes in different colors. White noise has an even spread across frequencies, while other colors of noise have different properties and therefore their own distinctive sounds. On it's own, brown noise sounds like a wave constantly in the middle of crashing.) In the process of stretching out and processing the sample, many harmonics have been highlighted, and the result is an extended piece that sounds like an accidental radio broadcast from an alien civilization who considers wind chime music to be high art. Lesson learned: When heavily processing a piece of audio (in Audacity, at any rate), it's very difficult to not end up with a very sci-fi result. The process itself, as I do it, leaves enormous artifacts embedded in the sound that are tough to remove and almost impossible to prevent. The digital artifacts have an inescapable electronic, artificial and ordered sound, something that I think most people associate with "the future". Next goal? Something that sounds different from this. | 2/1/08 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitEpisode 002: Martin Luther King Day Special | I've never quite figured out whether or not you're supposed to wish people a happy Martin Luther King Day or not, because it's never seemed like a day we should celebrate, you know? I mean, Dr. King was a guy who should definitely be celebrated, but a party atmosphere just isn't right. A lot of people turn it into a day of volunteering, and I'm not sure if that's right either, but it's a whole lot closer. Regardless, I am pretty sure that contemplation should be a part of this day, too, so today I'm contemplating Dr. King's words. I found a copy of his "I Have A Dream" speech somewhere online a few months ago, and listened to the whole thing. It's truly astonishing, and it occurred to me that I'd never heard the whole thing before, and probably neither had a lot of people. So, here's the speech, in it's entirety, and all I ask is that you stop what you're doing and really pay attention to what he's saying. Consider his message of integration and service, think about the people who have criticized this message, and ask yourself if you think his dream has been realized yet. I would like to express my continual gratitude to Archive.org for this audio, and for existing in general. If you want the source file without me blathering on in the beginning, it can be found here. Have a good Martin Luther King Day, everyone. | 1/21/08 | Free | View In iTunes |

Brownies Are Awesome!
I know that Mer would prefer I gave a brownie recipe here, but I don't really have one of my own. I can do grilled cheese - take a slice of cheese and two pieces of bread... Well, actually, the way you'd end that sentence is a pretty good way to tell if you'd like the Braindouche! podcast. If the steps in your grilled cheese recipe would involve a blowtorch or perhaps a giant magnifying glass, this might be the podcast for you. For those who'd stick with the stove, it's 6 of one and 666 of the other, man. You'll probably have to listen to a bit yourself to find out. Don't just listen to one episode, though - this podcast not consistant in anything save a quality of "funny" and the value of "inconsistancy". A single episode can not be indicative of the Braindouche! experience.
Like a Tasty & Frozen Liquid Brownie
FROZEN BLACK IRISH 2 tsp Coffee Liqueur 2 tsp Irish Cream 2 tsp Vodka 2 scoops chocolate ice cream - 2/3 cup Serves 1 - Most blenders can make four servings at a time Add ingredients to blender. Blend until smooth (a Black Irish cocktail would be served immediately at this point, but our recipe goes one step further). Pour mixture into a freezer safe bowl. Place in freezer for at least two hours or until firm. Serve with berries, oranges, cookies or light cakes. An alcohol-free variation can be made by replacing the alcohol with 2 tsp of brewed coffee and 2 tsp of chocolate syrup, but why bother.
I can use the internet
This is a fun and delightful podcast, and Mer is delightfully creative and asked us to deliver brownie recipes. Unfortunately, I can't find my old brownie recipe, so I used google, and found this one, and will share it here! The Ultimate Brownie is my absolute favorite brownie. It is tall like a cakey-brownie, but is dense like a fudgy-brownie. I'm sure it will be one of your favorite brownie recipes too. Prep Time: 20 minutes Cook Time: 40 minutes Ingredients: * 8- 1 ounce squares of unsweetened chocolate * 1 cup butter * 5 eggs * 3 cups sugar * 1 tablespoon vanilla * 1-1/2 cups flour * 1 teaspoon salt * 2-1/2 cups chopped pecans or walnuts, toasted Preparation: Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a 9 x 13 pan. Melt chocolate and butter in a saucepan over low heat; set aside. In a mixer, beat eggs, sugar and vanilla at high speed for 10 minutes**. Blend in chocolate mixture, flour and salt until just mixed. Stir in the nuts. Pour into prepared pan. Bake for 35-40 minutes. (Don't overbake.) Cool and frost if desired, but that is not necessary. ** It's not required, but this is when it's very nice to own a stand mixer. Braindouche, the stand mixer of podcasting,
