NEW & UPCOMING

  • My 1/8th Canadian genetic content calls me! I'm playing in the Ottawa Bluesfest, of all places, on July 15. Then I'm back on July 31 for a set in the fabulous Electric Eclectics festival.
  • I'll be performing July 7-10 in the Christian Marclay exhibition at The Whitney Museum in NYC.
  • I've uploaded the video tutorials from the DVD included in the second edition of Handmade Electronic Music. Learn to hack with Nic, but shut him up whenever you want! I've started posting them on Youtube as well, as installments in my Hack of the Month Club. I've also uploaded a pdf correcting some errors that crept into the second edition of the book.
  • I wrote a guide to how to Build Your Own Reverb for the March/April issue of Tape Op (#76). Contact mikes, slinkies, sheet metal and cymbals -- fun for all.
  • For the February 2010 issue of The Wire I wrote a short essay about my first encounter with Alvin Lucier's Vespers. This includes a rare photo of my 1976 hair. The Wire website also hosts a clip from my concert at Cafe Oto in London in January.
  • Re-release of Devil's Music (1985), on EM Records: double LP/double CD, with extra tracks, video and software for performing Devil's Music yourself.
