My Printer Broke, and CHAT ROULETTE

I’m in a new noise band called “My Printer Broke,” and I have a bunch of free music you can download here: myprinterbroke.com

Epic Like Beowulf

Last night we had a performance at New Crompton which was our first experiment to improvise music using chatroulette.com as a springboard. The whole night had chatroulette going for all the other bands but once we took the stage the internet cut out. Ah well, we’re doing it again on April 1st.The whole point is to be sort of a noisy version of this:




Here are some pictures of our setup at New Crompton – click for full size.


This kid thought we sucked.

This night we played w/ Rachel, Matt Fu, Jared, Kenny, Garrett & Kaz. Some girls after the show who had their hands in their ears during the set said it sounded like ‘acidic noise rage’. Some dude reciting Robert Frost poems after the show said we sounded ‘Epic Like Beowulf’ and/or something ‘Starring Crispin Glover’. Alright.

There are a series of videos from the event, taken by Clyde of your heart breaks.




The AM Radio 530 recording was done on the drive home from the show. On the way there Garrett turned on the AM Radio and cranked the volume all the way up on a channel that was not getting any signal. We all rolled down the windows and let it blare out the car. On the drive home we recorded a bit trying to sing along with it.
