June 12, for transistor festival 2010
(michael) jason corder began devising sonic schemes in the womb by performing on the uterus wall to cope with the intense darkness. he finally forged an escape plan in 1977 and upgraded his musical medium to a sterling kitchen floor kit. many years later during the dark ages of the 386/amiga, jason retired the cutlery to began forging into the vast void of 8bit tracking.
later he began his travels to countless electronic music events which catalysted him into a fertile pit of sonic clay. using adverse software such as buzz, jason began an evolution. though after realizing the creative short comings of purely digital creation, acoustics, space resonation, and concept became common place. instruments such as guitar, piano, sine waves, field-recordings and weather pattern data are mainstays for off the sky.
today jason resides in the city of denver, colorado and composes experimental electronic music in collaboration with other working musicians. occasionally, he still writes music for fetuses.

unfortunately end.user has cancelled...here are his words posted on facebook "have to apologize, i will not be in denver for this weekend's transistor festival. i had some ear issues during the last tour and after the flights back, i have been advised not to fly for at least a month while my condition is being properly treated. this means no gigs...for a month and i'll be taking it easy. this should be the only cancelation but again - i'm very sorry." ~ Thursday June 10, 2010 -- we wish him well
