If you like the music and want to leave a review over there, or here, or anywhere, that's very cool! Or just take it and enjoy! No reason to feel guilty, I just want to get it out there and I am not trying to support myself with my musical endeavors.

Performance clips from the vault

My new EP (out everywhere now) is full of tracks that have been marinading for a long while. The second song, "Dreamt I Was a Private Detective", started out as a submission for an early Deluge compilation (it did not get chosen) before being refined into one of the more popular songs on the EP. Here's an early version being worked out on the Deluge (where it was written and arranged).

Speaking of early versions, the performance video below is from one of Synthstrom's online video festivals during the pandemic, where I first tried out "The Living Bells". The song has evolved a bit since then, but the bones are there.

New EP On a Brick Speedboat

My new EP, On a Brick Speedboat, is out now wherever you listen to music. This one has been in the works for a long time, with some tracks haven been initially started as a means of just learning how to use my trusty Synthstrom Deluge way back when (all 5 tracks were created on the Deluge).

Feels good to have these songs out in the wild and the reaction has been great so far, so if you like sprawling electronic bops that don't particularly conform to a sub-genre, give it a listen.

Bandcamp is also great if you feel like throwing some dollars behind the tunes.

New Tumblr, same noise

I had a Tumblr years ago for @dogisblue (could use an update, but I'll get there) and seems like some good folks have moved back here as social media options are in flux lately, so here I am.

If we haven't run into each other before, I'm Bay Mud, an electronic musician from Canada working predominantly with hardware synths and, more often than not, my trusty Synthstrom Deluge.

Coming from a guitar background, I've been drawn to electronic music as a means of breaking away from the precious folk songwriting I'm used to, and to justify a ridiculous gear addiction.

More to come soon, but in the meantime you can find my music on all the usual platforms, including Bandcamp.
