Cortland Youth Center

Recorded at a youth community center in a town next to the one where I grew up, this was my first foray into live electronic music.

I recorded the set on a dual cassette deck that I purchased for making DJ set recordings from my Ableton Live performances.

My friends started a musical project called Shithed, and their vocalist made an impromptu guest appearance on “Sailboats”.

There were only a few people at the show, which was quite disappointing as a budding young performer. But it was a positive learning experience for how to put on a live electronic show, especially at a time when laptop performances were a new idea.
