This month’s podcast marks a decade of Errant Space podcasting!
I’ve dug into the archives and found some rare or unreleased bonus tracks to celebrate.
It begins with a piece for piano and percussion by Peter Fagiola that features some guitar atmospherics by me (Craig).
Next some recordings made with DavidRothenberg at his Bee Street studio (that’s what I call it. May not be its actual name.) David plays clarinets and synthesizers, I’m playing guitar.
Then we have a dub experiment with Bastian Void (modular synths). I put on my Errant Bass hat for this one.
That’s followed by a remotely recorded collabo with the incomparable Walter Wright on drums. It gets rowdy!
After that a duo recorded at Neil Alexander’s studio where he experimented with live processing grand piano, in preparation for the 100th ES podcast performance.
This was a fun adventure! I packed up a battery powered synth (softpop) and amp, and my binaural mic and hiked out to Hidden Lake in Putnam County, NY with David who brought a hydrophone and some speakers along with his clarinet and iPad.
We made some sounds inspired by what was happening below the surface*. The results are strange and surprising!

*Mostly plants photosynthesizing and an insect called the lesser water boatman. (Check out David’s book to learn more.)
This month’s podcast features composer/clarinetist David Rothenberg, who came to the studio with his bass clarinet, field recordings, samples and electronics for an afternoon of sonic exploration. The results of our collaboration are surprising and delightful!
