Greg Davis & I performed extensively as a duo in the early-mid 2000s, working primarily in real-time Computer Music systems we’d developed in Max-MSP.

Early on we issued a couple of small-run “Private” editions of concert recordings on CD-R (RKK Special Projects & Entschuldigen, 2002 & 2004, respectively) before Todd Hyman offered to finance & market a CD release on Carpark (“Yearlong”, released on March 21st 2005; YouTube™ playlist to your right.)

Covering a selection of concert recordings capturing during an epic two-month US tour, Yearlong was unusual at the time as a domestic release of the kinds of abstract, process-based digital-music most commonly associated European labels such as Mego, Mille Plateaux, et.al. We went to Europe together a few times during this stretch, then reprised the duo sporadically over the following decade, as well as in a trio formation with Ben Vida.

Yearlong is the long awaited compendium of live recordings from New England ’s favorite bearded computer-music duo (a.k.a. Keith Fullerton Whitman and Greg Davis), as recorded between 2001 and 2002 in parts of the world only read about by most. Taking in a ludicrously wide range of sound-sources and stylistic leaps, Yearlong is the first collection of improvised laptop pieces from Keith and Greg, edited down from around 18 hours of footage into one concise 45 minute mind-slayer.
