JEFF CAREY


Synthetic Noise Music

index[off] by Jeff Carey

> "Carey's sounds are deep, alive, and present, and despite their customized
> instrument/presentation being grounded in the digital realm, sounds so
> life-like and present one can feel a slithery long arm reaching out of the
> speaker and gently stroking your spine with a poisoned feather tip is the
> overall vibe of the sound. VISCERAL and R E A L, containing all what so many
> lack, 'Zero Player Game' pulls no punches that operate outside of it's own
> chaotic, but idiosyncratic structure and form and is in solid control of its
> own sonic destiny."
> 
> > Decaycast on 'Zero Player Game' (2018)

> "This is music by and for machines. There is an organic directness about its
> construction. It appears to synch with no beat, no time signature, no build
> and release, no harmony, no melody, no pure effects, no distortion — no
> humanity."
> 
> > Issues Magazine on 'Zero Player Game' (2018)

> "Like Author and Punisher's little gamer brother, he rips extreme digital
> noise with a weird-ass rig commanded by pads, boards and a joystick. At least
> a few nerds probably just wet their pants right now. It’s the sonic
> manifestation of cyborg warfare. Add a severe lighting array of all-white
> strobes and LEDs and this crazy shit becomes a full-sensory assault.
> Seriously, it's insane."
> 
> > Orlando Weekly concert review (January 2016)

> "He's acting on raw instinct here - he refuses the clinical approach to
> programming software or composing music, and strives to throw himself bodily
> at his machines, replacing all mechanical moving parts with human flesh,
> blood, and bone. In pursuit of this all-organic goal, virtually everything
> else is jettisoned, starting with recognisable notes or melody."
> 
> > Ed Pinsent, Sound Projector on "Impulse" (2010)

> "'I like all kinds of music.' Oh, do you? [...] Carey is not trying to make a
> hit, and we're not hoping to hear one. [3:30] is 22 minutes of roar and boom.
> [...] Now that's what I call music."
> 
> > A Closer Listen on '3:30' (2013)

> "Oh yeah. Oh very yeah. [...] his debut full-length CD and it's pure
> dynamite."
> 
> > Monsieur Delire on "Interrupt-Decay" (2012)

> "... the sound particle split into whining leptons, whispering quarks and
> flashing Higgs bosons [...]"
