Interview (9/19/24) with HypIrestition Ruins

Hey, going to try and post interviews and so on here for the sake of completeness/having a single spot to find things regarding me. Here is an interview I did recently! It talks about everything fr...

Uboa - Tiredness Shrine (EP) (Ambient/Drone)

Hey!

Sorry about doing nothing for a while as I had a lot of health issues. I...

Uboa - Literal Hell

Here is a stream of a song I did for a charity compilation "Noise for Artsakh", a fundraiser...

Noise School: Ableton Live Sets + Uboa - 2023 - 8 - 23 (Empathy Shield outtake 2)

Here's the other outtake I found buried in an Albeton folder. It's longer than the original Empathy Shield and probably my favourite outtake. I'll make this a noise school too and describe some asp...

Uboa - 2023 - 10 - 15 (Empathy Shield Outtake 1)

Ambient practice session from late last year, roughly around the time of empathy shield, so it uses some of the same patches and samples. Found buried in an ableton session. Thought it was coherent...

Noise school: creating a sense of space with field recordings

Here is an elaborate response to this comment (re: Impossible Light) by raeaw: "it's almost like there's a movie playing in your head or something, i think because all the samples ...

Some samples from "A Puzzle"

Here are some of the original sounds from A Puzzle - at least the ones I made and have on my HDD currently.

Several are made traditionally using a wet towel, a bucket and a fiel...

Suprise! My LP is out.

Hi everybody! my new LP "impossible light" is now out digitally on The Flenser. You can also pre-orde...

Uboa - Apollyon

A noise diary jam done yesterday before a show at my partners house. This liminal sunset was outside the window when recording it. A slow thing, tired, etheral and kinda terrifying thing that takes...

Roadburn is over!

Thanks for anybody who came to see me play 3.5 se...

Uboa - Calm Down excerpt

Hey, sorry about the lack of stuff recently as I've obviously been busy w/ prepping for roadburn (which is terrifyingly close aaaa). I was commissioned to write two sets, EP/mini-LP length, called ...

How to play An Angel on guitar (hint its super simple)

Pasted from bluesky for those who don't follow me there.

Tempo: 120 (or 60, one kick every second) 4/4

Uboa - Live @ Night Heron (TOomD prototype / on composing with jams)

So, here's the live set that eventually became edited into into The Origin of My Depression, specifically the title track, lay down and rot as well as cut-up over the other songs (such as An Angel,...

Uboa - Live at Old Bar 2018

Another HDD find. 25 mins long. Yes, its the field recording of my set that may of been edited into the latter half of The Sky May Be, or a similar set to it using many of the same samples (like th...

Uboa - It's Always Night Somewhere

Old kinda peaceful ambient song, using guitars, glockenspiel, old boyish vocals and other 'real' instruments. Written around the same time as Drowning on Dry Land (2016, nearly 8 years ago lol) )as...

Uboa - Landfill Parade

As I said, I'm burnt out working on things. So for the sake of Content and archival I give you this. Found this on an old HDD. Some pure cut up harsh noise from 2018. Have fun.

I’m burnt out

Above reposted from IG.

Sadly this means I won’t be able to do patreon for a bit. This is a big problem for me as it’s my main source of income (more than bandcamp, Spotify or merch) - it...

Uboa - Empathy Fatigue

I recorded a lot of demo versions of the live sets for Perth last year, one of which (for radio) would become Empathy Shield. I often like to record jams to remember/catch improvised ideas in the m...

Uboa - The Apocalypse of True Love

Here is the final song of the upcoming split. Like the previous two, the mixing is still in the air as I await feedback for it. It's a long one, and a pretty emotional one at that. It details the e...

Uboa - "Petplay Polycule Open Fire" + "Wasted Potential"

I think my first two songs (of six) on my upcoming split are recorded and mixed (but unmastered). If this isn't the final version, it's close. It's very much a foray back into the world of sludge m...

Uboa - Pareidolia Shadow (WIP)

Here's a near-finished song from my upcoming split with a certain internationally renowned  doom metal band who also hail from Naarm (Melbourne). The instrumentals and mixing are *almost* ther...

(Noise Diary) Uboa - Seismic Blasting

I said I'd not do any more posts this year but heres a belated christmas miracle (or misfortune) for y'all - another noise diary track. Quickly recorded while practicing/testing my live setup. It's...

Live setup 2023

I had a few people inquire about the gear I use live.

Essentially all of the above goes through Ableton in the "Session" view through the audio interface. Generally my mixing living needs t...

WIP (?) EP - Heart Meat

Sorry it's been a while. Xmas period is a clusterfuck as I am currently finishing a split for Naarm (non-colonial name for Melbourne, Australia) doom metal band Whitehorse (secret between y'all her...

Uboa - Empathy Shield

As some of you are aware, I re-remastered (lol)  The Origin (Deaf) and renamed it 2023-12-03 13:08:08 +0000 UTC View Post

Untitled - Scoring Practice

Probably would surprise none of you to know I would love to score a film or video game one day. Here is me practicing this quickly, making something kind of sci-fi-ish. No vocals as its meant to be...

Uboa - Fawn (Demo)

Here's a demo track of a song (an *actual* song!) that suddenly came to me when 'practicing'  my live set. Basically, its mostly synth (a Korg Minilogue) and vocals, with some subtle sampling ...

Uboa - My Garden (Hidden Shard of Glass)

Another entry I am putting under 'noise diary'. Another death industrial-ish song. Starts off ambient and ends up almost harsh noise wall towards the end. Features vocals (without lyrics) which are...

Uboa - Love Heart Pink Choker

Song made from various scraps on my HDD from recording my practices. Tried to challenge myself and 'speed-compose' song in 1-2 days, release it here and never think about again. I'll probably do mo...
