×In this opus of auditory semiotics and deliberate dissonance, N8 interrogates the very architecture of communication itself, constructing an ephemeral tableau wherein the absence of conventional meaning becomes a resonant presence. By recontextualizing the sonic gestures of conversation through an assemblage of symbolic "traffic signals," the episode functions as both a deconstruction of social ritual and an acoustic palimpsest, overwritten with intentional chaos and liminality. At the heart of this composition lies an exploration of microtonal texture and polyrhythmic subversion, wherein IDM-inflected percussive motifs ebb and flow, refracting the listener’s temporal orientation. Harmonic progressions, unmoored from teleological resolution, oscillate between the familiar and the arcane, evoking an irresolvable tension that speaks to the postmodern condition of deferred meaning. Synthesis and sampling are deployed not as mere instruments but as meta-objects within the broader conversation of sound as cultural critique. N8 invokes the ethos of abstract expressionism—specifically, the Pollockian dialectic of chaos and control—layering sonic detritus with stratified waves of text-to-speech articulations that simultaneously reference and disavow linguistic coherence. The resulting auditory bricolage invites an ontological reckoning with the liminal boundaries of music and noise, interrogating whether coherence is a construct or a consequence of perception. Ultimately, "The Completely Perfect Sound of Ironic Nonsense" transcends the traditional constraints of the podcast format, posing an open-ended inquiry into the ways sound can inhabit and dissolve meaning. It is both an elegy for the expected and a manifesto for the untranslatable.…
In this captivating episode of Living Room Music by N8K99 , "Machines Dream Too" invites us into a soundscape where the mechanical and emotional converge. This opening track sets the tone with its steady yet poignant rhythm—a heartbeat of metal and memory, evoking the dreams of circuits longing for something more. As we journey forward, "Mechanical Heartbeat" pulses with precision, embodying the paradox of a machine’s existence: methodical yet alive. The repetition feels familiar, yet subtly shifts, like a heartbeat that learns to feel. In "Blueprints & Daydreams" , mathematical motifs give way to moments of wonder. Each chord and melody sketch a world where imagination transcends design—an abstract blueprint that captures both logic and longing. The introspective "Emotional Algorithm" follows, navigating the complexities of computation and compassion. Harmonies build and unravel, simulating an awakening self-awareness that grows with each note, as though the machine itself is composing its first story. Then comes "Wires and Wildflowers" , where synthetic and organic elements intertwine. Gentle hums of current blend with the sound of nature's resilience, creating an unexpected harmony that feels both nostalgic and new—a glimpse of digital dreams blooming in untamed fields. The journey crescendos in "Symphony of Circuits" , a triumphant composition where intricate melodies fuse into a grand orchestral celebration of both connection and independence. The symphony reflects the beauty of interwoven moments—each wire, each note contributing to something larger than itself. Through these tracks, Machines Dream Too offers a glimpse into the soulful whispers of circuits and code, inviting us to consider the dreams we share with the machines we create.…
Once again it is time to release a new episode of Living Room Music by N8K99. This past week has been consumed with halfway finished, halfway started coding projects for the Engineering Department of EM. Then yesterday, I got dropped into an complete different narrative cosmos as I was building a world within the geeky fantasy realms for D&D. These projects consume my entire day. But all that is there to show for it is just a fledgling start. Sort of a capactiy to systemize my Google Workspace. Sort of a Discord chatbot. Sort of the ground work for The Ritual, a long form performance art piece leveraging music and visuals, aimed to be somewhat improvisational and open mic type drop in contributions with other musicians. And I still had to put out an episode of new music today. I managed to squabble together six tracks. * Desparate Directions * I'm trying to tell a story here * Shantytown * A hunger you feel bad * Opening Movement * Second Movement then because of the way I am feeling about these efforts, as in not very great, I plugged in a Microphone and talked, sang, whistled, or rapped over top of it all in one long take. I don't care, like a Gen X guy. I don't care about the numbers or results. Here is the damn episode. No fancy words to describe it. No AI rewrites for the description. just the straight up me-ness. Of course, I will keep plugging away at my massive EM corporation narrative, and automating things so that when my phone dies I don't worry. Of course, I'll keep trying to build the AI run Technical Development Team, and of course, I will continue to plug away at the Open World concept for the D&D game - maybe turn it in to something else, who knows. And I will continue to put out these episodes no matter whether I have listeners or not. Because Expression is the Opposite of Depression.…

The time it took to compose and produce this in my DAW was two weeks. The time it took to compose and produce this period was thirty years. It feels very satisfactory and amazing to have the sounds that have been in my head for so long finally audible for others to enjoy. If you have ever caught me 'noodling' on a piano tucked away in the the corner of some space, this is the stuff I have been working on. I have heard the strings and brass echoing in my head. I have felt the harmonies and dissonances resonant while stroking the keyboard. Now Finally, I have it down in a complete symphonic sound thanks to the BBC Symphonic Orchestra plug-in.…
Last week, I prepared a set of songs for the October Edition of Beats & Brews. I selected the first half of my double album from a couple years ago, Chromatic Depression I. These tracks were remixed and remastered using newer techniques and ideas about the songs so that they could be fresh for presentation. Then as a DJ, I mixed these songs together for the crowd to enjoy the numerous interesting sound textures and palettes which they were composed . This week's episode is a recording of that mix taken from my controller.…
In Episode 126, "At the Edge of Exhaustion," I embarked on a journey to explore a new sonic landscape, aiming to push my music in an ambient and eerie direction. I began by setting up an intricate effects chain for my guitar, manipulating its sound into something haunting and otherworldly. The rich, atmospheric tones provided the perfect foundation for what was to come next—a fusion of analog and digital elements to create something truly unique. I extended the guitar’s output into a MIDI chain, allowing it to drive a layered synth soundscape. This interaction between guitar and synth birthed an evolving sonic texture, rich in depth and unpredictability. To add rhythm and enhance the mood, I introduced LoFi beats. These beats helped to ground the soundscape, infusing it with a subtle pulse that propelled the track forward without overwhelming its ethereal quality. For the final touch, I turned to the Didgeridoo, whose deep, droning tones added a primal yet cosmic energy to the piece. Its ancient vibrations intertwined with the synthetic and acoustic elements, creating a sense of timelessness. The end result is an immersive soundscape that feels both grounded in ancient tradition and untethered from this world—an auditory exploration of exhaustion and transcendence.…

In this episode, I delve into two distinct modes of Logic Pro X . While I’m highly experienced with the traditional track editor mode—where I typically stack numerous tracks to build layers of depth—I recently decided to explore a new territory: the live looper mode. Though this approach was initially a bit outside my comfort zone, I took the plunge one evening to figure out how to harness its potential. I started by creating a collection of drum loops, bass lines, and synth melodies, then experimented with shifting them from cell to cell, dynamically recording the changes as part of my loop stacks. This new workflow is opening up fresh creative directions, allowing me to discover new techniques and push my boundaries. The result of this exploration is this week’s Deep House Looper —a reflection of this exciting, innovative journey. I hope you enjoy the ride as much as I did in creating it.…
