The first installment of the Offnominal Podcast is now available. For this pilot episode, I’ve made a live mix of two previously recorded rehearsals, taking the best segments of each and molding them into a new composite piece entitled FlightDynamics Suite, separated into individual movements in the best prog-rock style. Following on from that are Cfmmmmmma, one of my many excursions into Time Machines-style drones and Ashen, a rough mix of a track culled from the 30 or so currently in process.
Please note that I have made the decision to be biased towards iTunes users, utilizing the AAC format and using the chapter functions to divide the tracks. However, I’ve since come to find that the current version of Wordpress does not support easy podcasting of these files, I’m open to input. I’m a slave to convenience, I admit.

While this pilot episode (there’s a pun in there somewhere) is Logickal-centric, I want to go ahead and say that the format of the podcast is going to be very freeform. On the one hand, I want to use it as a surrogate for live performance, and I intend to have occasional shows created in the same manner as my live performances - totally improvised long-form compositions, as opposed to the “live mix” style employed here. I also plan on pulling in as many friends as I can into the studio to help out with the show, and sometimes it will follow a more standard radio-esque format. I’m going to be hunting down tracks from artists on the web to feature in installments of this kind, so if you have some music that you think would fit, make sure to get in touch and let me know where to find them.
Production notes: Episode 1 was compiled live using Ableton Live 5.0, with some small assistance from Native Instruments Reaktor5 and Spektral Delay. Logickal was performed by Jeremy Dickens. Special guest introductory voice over by Chance Dickens. Get in touch if you have any questions or comments and thanks for listening!
