K.M.Krebs \ 833-45

After too long than I care to con­tem­plate, I’ve finally re-released my Tun­guska album.  Orig­i­nally released on the Russ­ian net­la­bel Musica Excen­trica which van­ished a few months back, only to go through a few per­mu­ta­tions since.
If you want to read more about the album, I refer you to the orig­i­nal blog entry I wrote when it […]

Phlow Mag­a­zine just pub­lished an arti­cle inter­view­ing Sebas­t­ian Redenz dis­cussing the clos­ing of the ven­er­a­ble net label Auto­plate.  I’m flat­tered & hum­bled to see my name listed among the other tal­ented con­tributers to the label.  I’m proud to have been involved with Auto­plate and I invite you to down­load my album ‘Solar Cycle 23′ for […]

Pod­casts fill a vital need in my life, allow­ing me to acci­den­tally encounter music I’d prob­a­bly never hear oth­er­wise.  There’s a num­ber of musi­cal pod­casts that I always like to see on my down­load list in Juice.
Here’s a list of highly rec­om­mended musi­cal pod­casts:
Subnav.com  —  An inspir­ing source of wide-ranging, eclec­tic mixes with a good dose of […]

Mux­tape is a young web­site that went online in March of 2008. While it lacks an excit­ing, glossy inter­face that the iTunes gen­er­a­tion has come to expect (or even a search func­tion) it excels in two things:
1) It makes it dead sim­ple to share a mix-tape of your favourite music […]

Mashup is the music of non-linear edit­ing.  Maybe the ADHD of music?
If you keep your ears open to ‘mashup’ music, you’ll have noticed the ever increas­ing com­plex­ity and den­sity of mashups.  Com­pared to the early mashups which were mainly the accapella of one song and the instru­men­tal of another, the last year or so has seen […]

Just released on the Treetrunk net­la­bel: K.M.Krebs  —  Con­stant.
This is my inter­pre­ta­tion of the ‘Con­stant’ record­ings which began with Mystified’s ‘Con­stant’ release on Webbed Hand.  The basis under­ly­ing these record­ings is one of stark min­i­mal­ism, with long, glacially-shifting drones.
