The Music of Thom Brennan Part 6

Tonight on Live, we continue our feature on the music of Thom Brennan. One of the artists who literally defined the electronic ambient genre, Thom Brennan has released some of the most hypnotic and contemplative ambient music on the planet.

Welcome to the Ambient Underground
I'm analyzing the file based on transients, sorting the segments according to loudness (Y axis) and average frequency of the spectrum (X axis), then playing through those segments using those groupings #MaxMSP #Cycling74 #Glitch #ExperimentalMusic #SoundDesign #ElectronicMusic #MusicProduction

And here's the results of the mp3 glitching script (reillyspitzfaden.com/posts/2025/0...) played with the MuBu concatenative synthesis tools in @cycling74.bsky.social's Max/MSP #MaxMSP #Cycling74 #Glitch #GlitchArt #ExperimentalMusic #SoundDesign #ElectronicMusic #MusicProduction
Databending Part 3 — Glitching MP3s with Python

I'm continuing my databending series. Today we'll discuss how to use Python to easily glitch up MP3s, adding warbles, clicks, and other cool noise!

I added a script so I can take in a bunch of folders of .wav files, use ffmpeg to convert them to mp3 (and try out different bitrates), glitch them, re-encode those as .wav (easier to work with), and then clean up all the intermediate mp3s. #Python #Programming #ElectronicMusic #MusicProduction

Databending Part 3 — Glitching MP3s with Python

Here's a demo of the mp3 glitching script I wrote about here: https://reillyspitzfaden.com/posts/2025/04/databending-part-3/

I added a batch script so I can take in a bunch of folders of .wav files, use ffmpeg to convert them to mp3 (and try out different bitrates), glitch them, re-encode those as .wav (easier to work with), and then clean up all the intermediate mp3s.

Reminder, cause I see a post about them going around, #TheCrowHillCompany is run by notorious transphobe Christian Henson and if you support human rights you sure as fuck shouldn't be using their products, much less shilling for them. ESPECIALLY today, of all days.
