About me: Utilizing both found audio and spirit-world communiqués, I compose and record my music using upcycled vintage soviet agricultural equipment. My inspirations are: the dark spirits living in the pipes under my house; the messages I decipher from the organic and inorganic waste collected from the dumpster of the Chick-fil-a near my family's compound; the sounds of my own (and others') gastrointestinal tract recorded onto vintage wax cylinders and played backwards; the written oeuvre of American preacher, televangelist, and businessman Joel Scott Osteen.
To contact my press agent (I perform at weddings, bar and bat mitzvahs, funerals, &c.), write a detailed message on a piece of sustainably sourced vellum. Bury the vellum in fresh loam at night, visit the spot nightly, and pray fervently for 3 to 4 weeks. When the message has decomposed, congratulate yourself for having contribute to the Earth's carbon cycle.

M. Loer - For Every Head, a Hell (full visual album)
A new (short) album of my latest experimental/noise/ambient/something efforts! Primarily made with my mixing board wired up in a so-called "no-input" setup, more accurately called a "self-input" setup, for feedback loops. Lots of looping, processing, overdubbing, and some synths later, and here you have it.
Video footage is largely taken by me. The imagery around the 10 minute mark is heavily mangled and edited footage from the amazing Teamlab Borderless installation in Tokyo, which is stunning.

intrusive thoughts - NIMB performance
zhlédnutí 205Před 3 měsíci
Some obnoxious noise to marinade in your intrusive thoughts to. Using my Mackie mixer set up in a NIMB configuration, including one feedback loop with some pedals. Running into my DAW where some post-processing nonsense is happening, including a pitch plugin with an LFO, creating the drunken vibrato effect. #harshnoise #noise #NIMB #experimentalmusic

ultimate minimalist/affordable ambient rig? super-simple MIDI controller on breadboard
zhlédnutí 399Před 5 měsíci
I think this is probably the cheapest and most minimalist ambient or noise rig possible: turning an Arduino Uno and breadboard (a kit I got used from somebody for maybe $20) into a super-simple MIDI controller that sends CC messages to my DAW. Forward and backwards pushbottons cycle through which CC message is selected. Arduino code available if anybody wants it, but I just asked ChatGPT to wri...
1-hour noise/ambient performance - M. Loer - Natterjack
zhlédnutí 195Před 5 měsíci
One hour of obnoxious noises for deep sleep and relaxation, to torment your neighbors with, or whatever else you want. Performed on a number of my own DIY devices/instruments/abominations. The big one is a circuit-bent guitar pedal (PCB clone of the EQD Life pedal and DOD Carcosa wired up with an optional feedback loop for horrible self-oscillation), which provides the source noise, along with ...
new device - ambient soundscapes in a tiny footprint (MIDI controller + piezo)
zhlédnutí 588Před 5 měsíci
Prototyping a new device! This is a small enclosure with a lot of stuff packed inside, namely a very cramped Arduino Uno which is reading the 6 knobs and 12 push buttons and outputting midi signals to my DAW. Then there's a (totally unshielded, which I realized in hindsight was a giant mistake) piezo pickup hot glued inside, feeding to the 1/4" jack, feeding audio to my DAW. A super compact pac...

8:44 this sound with headphones is absolutely stunning, amazing performance <3
Thanks for listening!
The characteristics of the sound are easy to understand. Great!
love this!
that's sick as fuck
I have the same Scarlett...where's my cables and steel wool?
Where did you get the springs from?
Just a local big box hardware store in the US, Lowe's or Home Depot. They usually have various springs in the hardware aisle with hinges and doorstops and stuff. Amazon also has springs--what you want is extension springs for this type of thing
@@MLoerAudio thankyou
this is the best time ever for music. so many options and possibilities whether trained or untrained. there are no excuses any more not to create or have bad taste!
¡Oh, increible!
@@raultp2048 thank you!
binary controls.
Cool, I have an old Univox tape loop delay and an even older Fender (Tel-Ray) oil can delay I now know what to do with!!! I shall build a front-end noise box!!!
Alms for the algorithm! All hail the algorithm!
Praise be, praise be 🙏 🤖
Classic industrial catcore
I want one
I’d say I’ll sell you this one but there’s a non-zero chance that after all the sketchy wiring in it, it ignites and burns your house down. If you want to get something similar, you could get one of the big-box Big Muff Pi pedals, learn a bit about soldering and circuit bending, and make a stupid circuit-bent noise box yourself! Anyway, thanks for watching!
That freaked me the fuck out. Well done!
Really cool sounds 😎 👌
@@conniemiller5125 thanks very much!
do you have stuff on streaming?
I'm just on CZcams for now--thanks for watching! If you were looking for weird noise/ambient stuff like this, which streaming service would you use, out of curiosity?
@@MLoerAudio i use soundcloud mostly
@@Ambermachinesatan I’ll keep that in mind if I end up producing some more serious stuff-thanks!
Where do you get your patch cables from, they're cool?

Where did you get the different knobes for your midimix?
Online pedal building supply company called LoveMySwitches. These knobs fit ok but not perfectly-you need to use a little screwdriver to tighten the grub screw, but sometimes they still get loose and pop off. I wish there were a better fitting option but this is the best I’ve found so far
could be an early tangerine dream recording
Thanks!
Gorgeous 💕
Thank you so much!
Really well tamed noise. Totally accessible. Impressive. We run an open mic for experimental audio in SWUK. We'd give you a gig.
Thank you so much!! If I’m ever in the UK (that’s what you mean by SWUK) someday, I will 100% take you up on that!
water softner, aka satan's dialect
You're taking your work to the next level here. Well done.
Thank you so much!!
Is your mixer set up as a midi controller somehow or am I just dumb for not understanding how this is operating??
Hmm, no MIDI stuff in this one, I think. Often in my videos you’ll see me using a MIDI mixer to control VSTs on my computer. In this case there are some plugins doing post processing, but all the sounds are coming from the mixer wired up into feedback loops, including some pedals. It’s called the no-input mixing technique. Check out Kilo Llama’s explanation if you’re curious: czcams.com/video/P6WJt8ycOsc/video.htmlsi=oSZj9ld78nV7k4_Q

smell, too!
Daaaaaang. Crunchy and nasty in the best of ways!! Well done!
Thank you!!
what's your setup? this is so fucking rad
wheyyyyyy
Amazing stuff my man! I would love more tutorials for this kind of sound :)
Thanks for listening!
nice
Que maravilla
Thank you!
This is sick
Thank you!
Basement noises!
Yes but... how is this related to music? 🙃
Satan, of course!
I'm a big fan of what you're doing with these live pieces. I always prefer when noise artists don't let harshness get in the way of keeping a piece dynamic, having moments of quiet, etc.
Thank you very much! Agreed about the dynamics
What some people can do with seemingly innocuous sounds never fails to amaze me. Excellent work!
All through the magic of way too many audio plugins. Thanks for watching!
With how simple and effective it is, this could be a standard instrumenr
Thanks for watching!
Yo this was such and interesting sound scape at certain points it sounded metallic. very experimental and a unique in skill set. I wish I could play that.
Thank you so much!
Could I sample some of this for a song? I think it would be cool to make a beat out of the loop in the beginning
Yes, feel free! Only condition is you’ve gotta send me what you make with it, if it ever finds its way into a song
@@MLoerAudio Will do 😎
Yeah bro that loop was kinda heat
You're using a laptop as a mixer right? I want to make noise music and I need a minimum set of equipment.
That's right! All you need would be some kind of noise making device (cheap piezo pickups or mic or whatever), a way to get the sound into your computer (look for used audio interfaces), a laptop, and then you can get the free trial of Reaper, which includes tons of free native audio plugins (including various distortions, reverb, delay, pitch, ring mod, tremolo, along with a bunch of other random stuff). The black mixer I have is just a MIDI device--each knob is mapped onto the wet/dry blend of different audio plugins running in Reaper. You don't even need the mixer--you could do that all with just the laptop, it will just be a bit slower. Enjoy!
@@MLoerAudioThanks a lot! To be honest, I’m actually from Russia and this topic is not developed at all here, at least someone suggested it!
@@voyage_1984 Hit me up if I can help you figure it out 🤘
Necessarily
fantastic and sublime, especially when listened to at high volume on the biggest speaker system you can find
Thank you so much!
woww. excited for potential updates 😍
Thanks very much for watching! Definitely more MIDI devices to come.
@@MLoerAudio #subscribed 🤜💥🤛
@@codydaythanks for watching!
What digital distortion plugins would you recommend for this kind of sound design? Awesome stuff brother!
Thank you very much! For me it’s more about variety and experimentation than any one plugin. So first check out all stock distortion/saturation plugins in your DAW. Then play with combinations: stack two distortions, run reverb into distortion, or distortion into a ring mod into convolution into another distortion. I love convolution reverb for weird textures. Then do that but also add an LFO on a few parameters and suddenly the whole mess is constantly mutating and warping. A nice free distortion is Unplugred’s Prisma. Kind of a random one too but I love and constantly use Audiority’s Harmonic Maximizer (not free but cheap), a multi band saturation, which helps sculpt sounds. I also love their Boss HM-2 plugin, also cheap, for disgusting distortion. I hope this helps!
@@MLoerAudio This helps a lot! I definetly will check the free plugin :)
Time for N.U. Unruh to pass the torch.
You’re too kind!
You don't need a spaceship to do good soundcrafts and it's never desappointing please continue
Hey mate, this sounds wonderful, digging the handcrafted studd: keep it on! Tubs
Thank you very much!
Fantastic stuff man!
Thank you very much!
Get an old acoustic guitar, mic it up and you can build something very quickly and very easily 😊.
You made it! Would have loved to be there. I’ll pour one out for Ole Addy.
Thanks so much! I have plans to revivify the adding machine as a giant, steampunk-looking MIDI controller, so it's all good.
You killed it my guy! Very nice to see you smiling during the whole set!! How did you feel it went?
Thanks so much! I felt good about it! It was definitely hectic to get my rig packed up and transported somewhere. Was waiting for something to break or stop working basically the whole time. There were some hiccups for sure, like I wasn’t happy with the signal chain for the piezo pickup in the adding machine, so it wasn’t as audible as I wanted it to be. From here I want to figure out how to make my rig more compact and portable. But overall very happy for a first gig! Thanks so much for watching!
