			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Way back in the day, before I got involved in all this interactive &amp; graphical design I was a fine art student and spent my days making films and noise. I would make electric guitars and other electric noise making devices out of all sorts, old tape players with the reading heads removed and placed into hand units, guitars out of old speaker box&#8217;s and all sorts of joyous nonsense.<span id="more-253"></span></p>
<p>I pretty much stopped when I got kids and a way to feed them during the day as the only time to make a lot of noise was in the evening when they where asleep, and sleeping kids and feed back loops don&#8217;t make good sleeping partners.</p>
<p>The other day I was playing with my 2 year old son with iTunes showing him some Pan Sonic and I found a track I had recorded back in the early 1990&#8242;s that was made with a home made guitar &amp; tape device and recorded live.</p>
<p>The track is more of a sound scape then a song, I would hesitate to call it music, I may work it together with my other lost art of film making one day when life is less busy and hectic, I may not, who knows.</p>
<p>Anyway here it is: <a href="http://www.mccoy.co.uk/bucket/music/Downstream.mp3">Rich McCoy &#8211; Downstream</a></p>
<p>Maybe one day I&#8217;ll get back to tinkering with sound again and rediscover those lost days with an added maturity and experience, maybe not, its fun and I enjoy it, and maybe a select few sonic adventurers will get a kick out of it too.</p>
