about

This is the first Canned Beat CD, originally released as a limited edition CD in 2004 as NQP RetroActive 2089.
These 14 songs are based on jams using the short rhythm loops on miniature Kawasaki and DSI synthesizers that evolved while I was commuting back and forth to work over a period of 3 months. The basic tracks were recorded in one marathon session on September 27, 2004.
Many of these tracks feature a Sequential Circuits Six Track synth that I found at a local Goodwill store for $9.99 (the no warranty price) in August of 2003. With a little internet research I was able to restore its factory settings and it works perfectly to this day.

See info on track 2 for more on the Canned Beat back story.
See info on track 3 for recording details for this project.
See track 4 and 5 info for images of the original CD package and label.

This project is a duo at present, and I am also making available my archive from 40+ years of recordings. ... more
