Here’s a recording I made last weekend on our second night of camping during the MS150 fundraiser cycling event. The weather for the ride was actually fairly dry, but in the early evening we experienced a brief downpour after the first stage of the ride in Hinckley, Minnesota. As I waited out the rain in my tent each drop of water that landed made a nice popping sound. The recording sounded much different than I expected, almost like static with a surprisingly wide stereo spectrum.

Every so often I save certain voice messages. Usually because they are entertaining, strange, or sometimes infuriating. I eventually end up deleting them after a while.

Here’s a loop that I played on my Korg MS2000 during a recent jam session. I was sending the MS2K an external synchronization signal via MIDI and it sounds as if the instrument was laboring to lock in with the clock.
