For me, it's a musical instrument. That is if you consider noise to be music, which I do. I used my custom synthesizer "Trash92" in Reaktor to make this mess. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 146 - Auntie's Alias or: I Told You Not to Press the Red Button!Inspired by the deposit that one of my cats left on the floor for me, I decided that the world needed some more interesting things to listen to. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 145 - It Takes One or: Every Glitch is Better Than the One Before.When a bad day suddenly turns worse, our hero manages to step in a big smelly pile.

This is exactly what happens when you overload the system with conflicting messages. Nothing that a few extra gigahertz can't fix. But, until then I'll just keep to eating off of paper plates. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 143 - At Least it's a Dry Heat or: Live from Uranus As Paul the FrogBoy's Free Dinner From El Loco Becomes a Burden.The day was as hot as it was long. But at least it was a dry heat. The dumpster affectionately known as El Loco was full of refuse as usual. Located just outside a nuclear plant most people stayed away from El Loco and its radioactive contents. But Paul the FrogBoy was not most people. He had spent the last 20 years living as a freakshow attraction and had a reputation for eating anything especially if it was free. Is Paul about to be done in by El Loco? email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www ...

Adding some tweaks to Trash92 made it even more unstable. Should I expect anything other than that or was it what I was shooting for in the first place? Disregard all other options and you'll be left with the truth or some version thereof. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 140Inspired by everything I've ever broken, this is an updated version of my Trash92 synth. Lots of under the hood changes make for a wider array of sounds and more fun! email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 139 Another of my "latest" synthesizer creations in Reaktor. This one is called Trash92. Trash92 is the result of my continuing quest to create unusual sound makers in Reaktor. Though my methods may be somewhat evolving, the results are anything but predictable. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 138I'm playing it like a drunken monkey, just the way nature intended. It's the Akai MPC 1000 loaded with a ton of my own sample creations all rolled up into one sonic mess. And that's the good part. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 137You're hearing my latest synthesizer creation in Reaktor. I put all my knowledge from the Mushroom Accelerator, Circuit Bent Sputnik, and Wall Street Bailout Generator to work in making this one. I don't have a name for my new synth yet, but hopefully soon. email: mike@f7sound.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 136Not since Luke found out who his father was has something so shocking been revealed. This is the Wall Street Bailout Generator - a soft synth that I created in Reaktor. It's a whole new breed of glitch, so enjoy! email: mike@f7sound.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 135Not since the time I circuit bent Stephen Hawking's voice synthesizer have I heard such a fit of glitch. So I really showed my laptop who's boss and then some. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 134This is the cilling saga of when the 8 bit digital Schumer hits the fan. Be there when a venerable flea market computer is tasked with analyzing the schematics of something called a Death Star for any weaknesses. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 133You may want to wait for the good part, and it's only a glitch away. Listen asap as this kind of sound mangling could become a federal crime. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 132After a long break, I bring you a 'mixtape' of DLC episodes. A clash of sounds to end the Summer and it's a long one. I'm considering releasing this as an EP. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 131Last time, I presented the "lost episode". This episode, however, might be the one that you'd wish I lost to begin with. Happy 2009! email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 130This was meant to be Episode 93, but something happened and I lost it. So 93 became something else and this one was tucked away on a backup DVD for 2 years. I happened on it by chance and made some tweaks and added a few things. So, here's the Lost Episode of the DLC. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 129Citi gets bailed out and we wait to see who's next. About 25 years ago, John Cougar "needed a lover that won't drive him crazy". And just last year we found out that Bono didn't hold the record. He WAS the record! Don't worry. What you're hearing has nothing to do with any of this. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 128Since I'm not getting my 2008 bonus, I figured it'd be a good time to pull out Circuit Bent SputniK and have a blast. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 127Once again, I attack my MPC 1000. Over 1300 sounds, some dating back more than 20 years are unleashed in mutant form. I played all of this live... no edits! Be afraid. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 126Here's a glitchy little treat to start a new week. I played this all live on the MPC 1000 as you hear it. All the sounds are mine, some going back over 20 years. All chopped up and reassembled for your listening pleasure. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 125This one was especially fun. Skirting the breakcore, glitchcore, chipcore, corecore, and chaos genres, this episode was done completely live on the Akai MPC1000. I even cut 3 of my fingers from hitting the pads so hard. All the samples are my own creations and you may even recognize some tiny chunks from earlier episodes of the DLC - since I love to hack up my own work. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 124It's yet another brain bender. This is the first time I've used my new Akai MPC 1000 in a production - as I've only had it a few days. But, there's lots more than the MPC going on, of course like field recordings and synthesizer stuff. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 123You're hearing a perfect example of why I don't ever get invited to the annual neighborhood barbeque. It's because I'm always tweaking my Mushroom Accelerator! And here it is running on an Intel chip. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 122Here's some of my field recordings run through a computer simulation of 16 malfunctioning CD players. The things I think of.... email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 121Do computers have souls? Is this what the machines will be listening to when they take over? I travel 20 years into the future to find out. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 120Now you shall experience the full power of the Mushroom Accelerator! Oh, and this was all done live with just one edit near the beginning. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 119I've been working on the Mushroom Accelerator. I think it's become intelligent. Or, maybe it's just some random crap. Anyway, enjoy some pure Mushroom Accelerator. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 118These still aren't the droids you're looking for. But, they sure sound like them. Malfunctioning droids, that is. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 117See what my wife has to put up with? Well, I thought that it was time for a nice, juicy podcast. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 116Time to get out your secret decoders. What? You don't have your secret decoders? Well, who's fault is that? email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 115I force my laptop to do unspeakable things... puke out relentless sound effects... and there's nothing that can stop it. And you can hear it all! email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 114Evolution or just me continuing to mess with Reaktor? You decide. What I do know is that I've spent far too much time tweaking this ensemble. What I also know is that I'll be spending even more. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 113A step forward in processing audio. This is like show 109 (show 109 was the source audio), but where 109 had over a thousand edits, this show has none. That's right, this was all done live using the audio from DLC-109. I created the processor using Reaktor 5 and processing is all live and somewhat ramdom. No 2 performances are the same even if the same source audio is used. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 99 BPart 2, and you didn't even know there was one coming. The probe is pushed deeper into my brain and you get to hear the results. Headphone listening recommended. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 112You'd think I like editing audio or something. Why? Well, if you saw the Pro Tools session for this podcast, you'd see ass loads of edits. But it's all about the sound. Headphone listening recommended. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 111Like a Hollywood plastic surgeon, I did plenty of cutting to get this one just right. Edit after edit after edit. But that's what you love about this podcast.

He probably lived because he listened to this episode of DLC. But, I can't be sure. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 109Messing with voice. I take 'the sounds in my head' clip and abuse it. Chop it up, move bits around, chop some more. Then cut it up and rearrange stuff again. Then play bit of it while recording to a CD. Then take that CD and scratch it up and re-record it. You get the picture. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 108What a real ear-bender we've got today! Processed field recordings, glitchy Reaktor, and some mutant tape effects all for you. It reminds me of that tiny mosquito that followed me the other day. Annoying as hell. But this is like 10,000 of them at the same time. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comListen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Difficult Listening Channel - 107 - Circuit Bent Sputnik v. 1.2!My circuit bent Sputnik now features software version 1.2!

At least that's how the tale goes. I purchased a strange, beat up orb from a flea market for 2 dollars. Opened it up and rewired it's guts. Now it's a musical instrument! Or so the tale goes, because it may be a software emulation.
