  • Italy via Oxford – Making music with found sound

    A little while back I was asked by the lovely people at citiesandmemory.com if I wanted to create a track with some of the field recordings that have been uploaded to the site. The result was this track which used samples recorded in Italy and on Cornmarket Street in Oxford to create all of the instruments used.

    I also made a couple of videos on how I made put the track together in (I know, the voice over is too quiet but it’s my first tutorial video. Go with it.)

    And if you want to have a go at creating your own version, you can download the Ableton Live set from here. Enjoy.

    Mendoza and Griffiths – Along Dangerous Roads [Updated]

     

    [Update 15/10/14] You can now pre-order the CD and Download versions of the EP from Bandcamp.Tiger_Mendoza_cover_web

    I’m really happy to officially announce ‘Along Dangerous Roads’, the new collaborative EP between Tiger Mendoza and David Griffiths. Following a conversation over computer games and soundtracks, we decided that we would try out a few tracks and see what happened. The result was this 6 track collection which blends our separate musical influences in to an ep we’re both very proud of. The tracklisting is:

    1. Now That Days Are Colder
    2. In Desperate Times
    3. Along Dangerous Roads
    4. Eating Crayons
    5. Literature and Life
    6. Home Is The Sailor

    The artwork is by Ian Norris, writer and artist of the brilliant independent comic Fixed Up. The EP will be released in standard CD + download and download only editions but also as a special poster and download edition as well. To launch the EP, we’re doing a very special launch gig on Saturday 25th October at The Wheatsheaf, Oxford with support from the brilliant Motion Static. Check out the gigs page for more info and ticket details.

    To coincide with the release, the site has had a bit of a facelift. Hopefully the new layout should make things a bit easier to find but if you do happen to stumble on to any problems, feel free to get in touch.
