About this listen

If you follow my work online, you’ve probably seen the small motor drones I make. They’re simple wooden boxes with a hobby motor inside and an instrument output that carries the sound of the motor as I slow it down and speed it up.

On its own, the signal isn’t especially exciting, but things change once it runs through effects like reverb and harmonizers.

And that’s what I’m playing here on this episode. A 60 minute excerpt from an upcoming album called "Wherever You Are", featuring a slowly shifting wall of gentle, melodic drone.

While the full album runs three hours and forty minutes, this podcast version is slightly shorter due to hosting limits. The complete, unedited version will be released on all major streaming platforms later this week.

Want to recreate these sounds on your own projects?

Starting in March of 2026, I’ll be offering these drone boxes to my Patreon subscribers. Members at the "All-Access" tier will get details on availability, and they’ll also be able to download the full album to use as they wish.
