Umut Eldem aka Hearing Glass has a great set of video tutorials. They're implemented perfectly in Max...

Sometimes I like to take my satellite tracker for a walk across the sky. I just came across Luch/Olymp, a Russian spy satellite, sent up in 2014 to 'observe' other satellites. Although still transmitting it's now broken apart and exists primarily as a debris risk in the geostationary belt.

Cassette tape cover which depicts a photograph laying on top of some bed linen. The photograph is a view from a window of a garden, a tree, dark clouds and a rainbow, with a spark of bright reflection on the glass

Last copies of my 2025 album now up…

And thanks to @newnumbertwo.bsky.social for reminding me that GSX dropped in November -- "Granular synthesis module based on Barry Truax's GSX system (1985-86), with real-time control over temporal, spectral, and spatial parameters."

Does it comb? Yes, it does: (ok, now I go sleep)

Avant Music News Best of 2025 As 2025 has drawn to a close, we are sharing a two-part retrospective on what counts as the year’s most essential sounds in our little corner of the world. This year, we made the strategic decision to split albums of the year into two distinct categories: one dedicated to the immersive depths of experimental and dark Ambient music, and another for the vast world of improvisation, jazz, and avant sounds in general.
