I like to find the odd piece of windows software that gives you that experimental edge for sound design. There are many, hiding out in nooks and cranny's of cyber-space but finding them can be a real chore. The very fact that you are here at this blog gives you a distinct advantage as we will be constantly researching and updating the list of these rare birds. Lets get started with some recent and unusual finds. Note that all of the following programs are free…

I will be posting random interesting creative stuff…

This is a relativly new song. I have had some challenges with it, because I don't know how to make the arrangement I want.

Is suppose to be a lament somehow, very slow ballade.

I do try to avoid making my songs similar to eachother though, so on this song I have focused on classical sounds, like strings/cello/harp.

I also realized that less is more (I have tried drums/Bass) But it seems I fall back to my original idea.



Again I try to sing here I have actually a…

"Sound of Penta" from SUGENG PRATIKNO on Vimeo.

So, what am I thinking? What pops first to my mind is the nasty burnt back I got from the sun today. But it will pass I suppose. When I touch it it hurts though, I wonder how I'll manage to get some sleep tonight. 

So the other day a friend of mine came by the house, asking for some help with a song she had written a couple of years ago but never finished it. I manged to slip in some more chords than the I-V she had there, but hell, I couldn't get her to put in a nice…

This is the first blog bost I write here, so I believe some kind of introduction is in order...Nah, screw that, I bet you already know my name, it is somewhere around the page you ae reading right now.
