Cheapmachines

Real Name:
Philip Julian
Profile:
Philip Julian has been an active part of the experimental music underground since the late 1990’s recording numerous works under the name Cheapmachines. Recordings are semi/improvised using contact microphones, amplified metal objects, domestic radio receivers, instrument effects pedals, environmental/found sounds, tape loops, damaged electrical devices, analogue synthesizers, feedback from various sources, turntables & “prepared” vinyl. Traditional instruments such as guitar, organ and tuned metal instruments (gongs, cymbals, prayer bowls) have also been used as part of the recording process. He has also created various computer based works using software environments such as Max/MSP, Super_Collider, Pure Data and also using the open source GNU/Linux operating system Debian and the related pure:dyne distribution. He has collaborated on recordings and performances with Maurizio Bianchi, A Band, Birchville Cat Motel, Tomas Korber, The New Blockaders and GX Jupitter-Larsen of The Haters.
