about

Strange Pudding is a group of pieces that were started as my contribution to songadayforamonth.com during January, 2018. That website is exactly what it sounds like, people attempting to post a song a day for a month and commenting on what others are doing. Due to the compressed time frame, the originals were more sketches than finished projects, and all the versions here have been expanded or otherwise improved. I got deeply into a device I created in Ableton Live that's a kind of erratic sequencer that ended up being used on most cuts. Despite its fairly simple nature, it proved to be extremely versatile when applied to different sound sources.

The alto sax in “up from the grump” was played by me and recorded by Bruce Kaphan as part of “A Few Eccentricities,” my project with Tim Perkis. Thanks to my wife Lauren for putting up with all this, and Steve Blum and the other participants in songadayforamonth.
