I Made ‘Music.’ Listen To It.

My music-making moniker is Hebdomad, a strange word that means a period of seven days.

The name of my album is Borborygmus, an ugly word that means the rumbling/gurgling noise made by the movement of fluid and gas in the intestines.

I made most of this album as an undergrad in 2009 and 2010. The music utilizes found sounds, sound isolation and delay, sound loops, and various sonic tricks to produce cerebral and unsettling ambient textures. Or not. Give it a listen. Download it for free.

If and when I get more time in the future, I will make more. But this one still holds up, I think.
