During a difficult time just after graduating 2000-2002, a good friend of mine Brian Pare and I were working convention audio in Ottawa. We shared a place and eventually moved to Toronto together. During this time I was continuing my exploration of computer media started in university under Laurie Radford. These are some of the found audio compositions I did.
Tartus
There is lots of good use of the theremin, original drum samples, valuevillage records.
Stay Alive
This one prominently features an old national geographic record we found at valuevillage.
Look Up
This is a remix of an old partially destroyed big band record.

To make these pieced Brian and I went around and recorded sounds, and friends and digitizing old records. We used sound forge and Acid mainly, as well as keyboards, guitars, Brian also had a theremin and an effects box. Lots of good times, and bad neighbours.
