"Hum, Metrics, and Rhythms" is the name of Mark Rushton's latest
music podcast. It features three pieces of music recorded live with
bass player Jon Harnish at the Ambient Matyk Café is Cedar Rapids in
late May of 2006. The audio podcast can be downloaded in MP3 format at

The first track is a remix of Rushton's The Hum of Antique Machines.
It runs about 6 1/2 minutes and is a drone-based thing with fuzz and
flutter coming in and out. Rushton and Harnish recorded it outdoors, so
you can hear the birds singing in the background. The original studio
version is the first track Rushton's latest album, Hum And Drift.

The second track, which is untitled, is short piece, just under 3
minutes. It's based on shortwave loops and some other rhythm and
synth loops used in Rushton's remix of Psychometrics, a track whose
studio version is on his 2004 album, The Driver's Companion.

At the end is another untitled piece, about 11 minutes long, which
features lots of rhythms, drum beats, drawn out bass drones, bleeps,
and voice samples. Rushton calls it "a good time summery party
tune."
