about

This is What You Sound Like is a tongue in cheek re-imagining of some of my favourite musical styles from my formative years. In this album, classical orchestral music, 1980s pop, vaporwave, electronic dance music (specifically post 2005 drum and bass), jazz and battle rap forms are reconstructed in a foreign idiom with their most characteristic sounds. Tracks 1, 3, 6 and 9 form a four-movement classical symphony mould. Almost every title is a pun.

If you liked this, here are some starting points for research into this sort of thing:

John Adams – Shaker Loops
The Art of Noise – Who's Afraid of the Art of Noise
The Art of Noise – In no sense? Nonsense!
Rick Astley – Never Gonna Give You Up
Francois Bayle - Erosphere
Ludwig van Beethoven – every symphony
Pierre Boulez - Répons
Benjamin Britten – War Requiem
Francis Dhomont – Frankenstein Symphony
The entire sound library of the E-MU Proteus VX
Stan Getz and Kenny Barron – People Time
Four Tet – There is Love in You
Joseph Haydn – any String Quartet or Symphony
Freddie Hubbard – Red Clay
Hybris – Transgressor EP
James Ingram and Michael McDonald – Yah Mo B There
Luxury Elite – Fantasy VHS
Macintosh Plus – Floral Shoppe
Macross 82-99 – A Million Miles Away
Gustav Mahler – Symphony no. 5
Noisia – Split the Atom
Noisia – Incessant EP
John Oswald – Plunderphonics
Diana Ross – It's Your Move
Giacinto Scelsi – Quattro Pezzi
Edgard Varèse – Ionisations
Trevor Wishart – Still Life
