BTM Sez.... LETZ ROCK !


!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BTM on APPLE.com back in 1999 - Music for the Twisted Masses


Decades of analog/tube/vinyl/tape/film (which i still incorporate as much as possible) has given way to a digital realm where my main tools of choice are... Pro Tools (AUDIO) and Final Cut Pro (VIDEO) and Photoshop (PIX) all on MAC. It was just eleven years ago when APPLE did an article about me and my Mac lust on their website, entitled: Strange Notes: Music for the Twisted Masses. (click to read the article)

BTM HARD DRIVES & TAPES...


You would not believe the MEDIA (audio, video, photos, art, text) that is stashed in my hard drives. If I don't shoot another photo or video or record any new music, there are still enough unreleased gems to fill a dozen cds, dvds, and photo books. Not to mention all the analog audio tapes, micro-cassette, and mini-digital video tapes that are stashed away. Much more than you can consume. Most of you haven't even heard most of the stuff I have already released. I am in a non-stop editing/mixing frenzy (via Pro Tools, Final Cut Pro, and Photoshop) doing what I can to give you more more more.

Note: You will notice that the hard drives say MAIN on them... i also have exact duplicate mirror drives that say BU (Back-Up) on them. ...and i still need even more hard drives.


I have over 15 BTM CDs and over 100 VIDEOS (and several DVDs) and several thousand PHOTOS that are ONLINE already... not to mention all the recording/remixing etc i have done for OTHER ARTISTS.... so dig in, there's more on the way.

Looking Up !

There's some beyond magical about the moonbeams of a full moon lunar eclipse on the winter solstice with sprinkles of snow tossed in... even if it is all buried in clouds. As most of you know, many of my BTM, OBE, Drum Army, Kings Of Feedback, Orgy Of Noise recording sessions and album/cd/single/video/book releases and other adventures have purposely and sometimes accidentally coincided with equinoxes, sabbaths, and full moons.

BTM's Moog Filtatron "Out On The Roof" Experiment (Orgy Of Noise)

BTM's Moog Filtatron "Out On The Roof" Experiment (Orgy Of Noise) by billtmiller

Moog FILTATRON app experiment on iPod Touch. I went up on the the roof of new Headroom Kitchen Studio space and tweaked out on the Filtatron app a bit. Dialed all controls into overload self-oscillation and recorded it with the built-in sampler. Then tested the transfer files via ftp function on the app back down in the control room to my mac-mini. All worked flawlessly. Definitely my new favorite app on iPod. This sound snip is just a test teaser.... look for actual videos of me tweaking iPod apps in the future. http://billtmiller.com & http://orgyofnoise.com

BTM's Headroom Kitchen Studios v6


HEADROOM VERSION NUMBER SIX
After nine years in Allston, MA, my studio has morphed again into another location in Boston. Three were in Boston's South End (1984-2001) and two in Allston (2001-2010) and now the newest v6 is one town over in Brighton, MA. This version is a hybrid of the best of all the gear I was really using packed into a KITCHEN nook. My full Pro Tool TDM audio and Final Cut Pro video rigs are wired in. Now I can focus on editing/mixing the dozens of studio sessions and live shows that I have already shot/recorded that have never been released. (more on that coming up)

The rest of my collections (circuit bent toys, outsider instruments, junk percussion, electronics, synths, guitars, records, etc) are stashed in storage. My LIVE BTM Orgy Of Noise rig is right at the front ready to MAYBE go on the road in late 2011/2012. Plus, I have access to a higher speed internet connection and will be doing more BTM Television Webcasts where you can look over my shoulder as I edit/mix upcoming DVDs & CDs. Plus, cooking recipe segments and special appearances by Bent Tron Bot & Sheri & ZiggyCat & much more on the upcoming 2011 BTM TV season.

NO PLANS for ANY LIVE BTM GIGS yet, but look for pre-season BTM TV Webcasts soon-ish. Eventually I plan to do regular BTM TV webcasts. I will mainly focus on my own DVD video projects and a few choice remix or soundtrack projects. Plus some MIGHT do some freelance engineer/production for OTHER bands at OTHER studios.

In the meantime... tons of my videos are already online at: htt://YouTube.com/btmtv & a pile of my albums/cds for free download at: htt://MP3ORGY.com
