So, I've had a background as an audio engineer (or the guy who twiddles knobs in the middle of a room full of people who listen to music) and pretty much forgotten that life. Something was stirring in me, as I've never really left the realm of audio too far behind. I always was recording, or reading about gear, especially effects or synthesizers. I liked a lot of early punk and industrial, although found the pretensions in the industrial music a bit hard to take, so it never really struck me as something I could relate to.
Anyways, fast forward another decade and for some strange impulse, I've decided to start trying to make music with electronics I build. I'm starting slowly, although I've acquired a bunch of gear and downloaded a few books to help make sense of the difference between electrolytic capacitors and ceramic.
So this blog will document my builds, some of my music created and whatever else works for this space.
Skull Servant is an homage to Man Is The Bastard, who obviously play no small part in my re-interest in this stuff nearly two decades from when I last soldered components as a student.
