I engineered the new Gameboy Filter Mod, to be available from Works Ltd.

 Bodytronix opened for the Butthole Surfers at the grand opening of Emo’s East (Austin TX) on 9/11. We were the first to play in this new, huge, sparkling clean venue: Sound and light were fantastic, Vidkidz were there supporting us with live graphic projections.

JUNE 24TH 2011
Exploded Drawing #6 (Baby Blue Studios, Austin TX)
A night of solo sets by eminent Texas producers
I will be performing a 20-minute set as BRAINIAX

BRAINIAX - Jakistan :: Respectfully dedicated to Charanjit Singh. I borrowed the bassline melody from his 1982 proto-house track Raga Bhairav. Yes I know he’s Indian, but this track is called Jakistan anyway. This is faux-raga, I’m obviously clueless about classical form. (Eric Archer 2011)

I’m prototyping new analog drums. Listen to the first sounds from the bass and snare drums in this video. Or download the audio from my soundcloud.

I found some mods for the Digitech RDS delay units. This video pretty much explains it. The mods eliminate the lame gaps of silence when buttons are pushed to change mode or come out of bypass mode.”
