Tin Can Synth Jam Podcast

I've built a radically DIY synthesizer out of electronic components and tin cans and paper bags. Listen to me wrestle mightily with it, trying to get it to make tolerable sounds!

    TCSJ 037 talking and noise

    Welcome to the first new episode in a WHILE! If you're thirsty for more regularly scheduled TCSJ content, check out https://www.twitch.tv/tincansynthjam/schedulewhich will show you when I'm going to be streaming live every week.If you're just plain thirsty, maybe get some water.In this episode, I talk about circuit design and brag about my new module, NyquistNightmare. You can hear it a lot in this episode, and I'm working on an automatic gain control circuit that will let you hear it even better in my next episode.

    TCSJ 036 Smoldering Cone Pulp

    In which I explore my Doubleplusbass kick drum prototype and my RumbleKikBoom proto-prototype, get really into some nice grooves, find myself extracting fascinating noise textures out of a few ultra-simple modules, and have a lot of fun.

    TCSJ 035 Lattice of Coincidence

    Me talking about synthesizer stuff that's been happening, and then me doing a pretty laid back 135BPM techno jam with plenty of breaks for interesting sounds and a couple samples.

    TCSJ 34 patio

    Without listening to be sure, this may be my favorite episode so far. A passage in the middle even caused me to get goosebumps and tears. Much less rhythmic than almost all of my previous jams, but of COURSE in the last third that pesky kick drum sneaks in :D

    TCSJ 033 Cerise Steelbarrow

    I really like this episode. Much much much techno. And then toward the end I think I figured out what the problem is with my EasyEi8ht trigger sequencer, so I can get to fixing that.

    TCSJ 032 Play Think

    This was recorded at PlayThink Festival 2021 while a chair-dance class was underway. Listening to your environment through headphones (and especially while being processed by a modular synthesizer) is wonderful, and highly recommended.

    TCSJ 031 Squeamishness of the Hegemony

    I built a new microphone! And I sounded so good to myself that I wound up talking for like fifteen minutes.My goal with this episode was to use my new mic to record a vocal sample onto one of my voltage-controllable ISD1820 chips (so noisy, don't know why) and pitch it into something interesting with one of my sequencers, then use that exact same sequence to control two other "quantizable" sound sources, first, my Atari Punk Console x 1.5 and then one of my Braids on a simple waveform.Also, contains my first ad, "brought to you by the Modular for the Masses EasyEi8ht trigger sequencer"

    TCSJ 030 Unrehearsed!!!

    I listened to Podular Modcast's recent interview of Captain Credible who I'm ashamed to admit was unknown to me previously, and he talked about his creative process. He builds electronic musical instruments and then, without rehearsal or plans, gets up in front of crowds and performs! The courage!!!!I don't rehearse either, which I will now pretend is on purpose (it's not)... but I will recognize the value in a raw and honest approach to improvisation. The struggle of a person to wrest something pleasing -- or at least artistic -- from equipment can be art, even if the product is challenging.http://www.captaincredible.com/abc/https://podularmodcast.fireside.fm/
