agronomy by Chris Farmer

Room mic practice recordings of songs written on electric keys, coded into MIDI, arranged live on an MPC2000, output to a Casio and a Novation synthesizer, accompanied by drums.

These were the songs I was working on at the end of my Garber space tenure in 2011/12, coming after Live at Sound of Music recording.

(2,5) song was intended to accompany lyrics and a proposed youtube viral video my co-worker and I had created in our minds. in our minds it was very funny.

(3) Remembering those Fibes clear acrylic drums Billy Cobham rocked in the '70's

(4) Nod to Benevento Russo Duo

(6) Nod to Big Shirl aka drummer and friend Bryan Cox. I made up this simple riff on guitar while jamming with Bryan and then transferred it to the MPC.

Co-wrote and played drums in Breadwinner. Also in Flat Stanley, Gourd, Plaid Joke, Sweat Family, Mao Tse Helen, Hotel X, Eggs, Manwich Tantrum, The German Version, She'zzaduzzi, ...

I have a metric ton of mostly lo-fi solo music I am unearthing and releasing here.
