Data Cult Audio 0255 - James Staub

Data Cult Audio

About: James Staub has spent the last ten years composing music through the design of electroacoustic systems and processes. Pieces are constructed from a tapestry of recorded improvisations for guitar, upright bass, cello and a vast toolkit of original interactive music software. Staub’s work as a music technologist and programmer centers on the development of real-time human-computer improvisation. These tools employ machine listening and synthesis techniques to interpret and play along with instrumental improvisations. The incidental and the imperfect nature of his custom made audio programs create a dynamic, texture-rich interplay between acoustic and electronic voices. This mix for Data Cult Audio contains selections from several of James’ albums (released under the name Muddy Wires), as well as unreleased studio material.
