Quantum mechanics and modern day mysticism; the restorative powers of higher order harmonics; gnarled sonics, conversations, man and machine; chowning. Recorded 2012-2015 in Pawtucket RI. Includes bonus "90 Above Mix" ambient version.
More rap, more rock and roll. Surveying topics that range from now-defunct Mayan prophecies to technological tribulations to JENGA tournaments, along with familiar themes of vegan life and (meta)physics, MATH ONE returns with a dynamic compilation of deep funk, pseudo hip-hop, and future folk.
Icy driftiness, wandering through the universe. Recorded in MA 2010-2011
Computer lounge music. Modulated slow motion sketchiness.
MATH ONE presents a new recording of synth folk anthems and pseudo hip hop. These songs were written and performed throughout 2011 and continue to explore themes of searching for meaning in the scientific world, in a slightly rock and roll context.
Snowed in. Recordings of new songs from the second half of 2^010 along with two bonus remixes.
MATH ONE returns to the studio, after a brief hiatus, and the result is "85". These tracks draw from the energy present in recent live performances, and are extended out with layers of electronic strata. This album is full of a love for sound and its possibilities, for math, and for life.
Recorded fall 2009 in Santa Barbara, CA. Electronics, vocals, acoustic guitar. Haphazard arrangements, tofu love.
Recorded during the first half of 2009 in Santa Barbara, CA. These tracks started out as some synthesizer / vocoder jams and descended into a dubbed out maximalist blur. The goal is vaguely defined, half-remembered love songs for the earth that lurk at the edge of perception.
Recorded spring 2009 in Santa Barbara, CA. Acoustic guitar, vocals, electronics.
Recorded autumn 2008 in SBCA using electric guitar and electric piano.
Recorded in mid-June, 2008, using electric guitars and various analog and digital signal processors.
This compilation collects various Math One singles, remastered versions of old tracks, and a few bonus tunes dedicated to various classes.
M(athematical)-funk and future folk instrumentals. Guitars, basses, electronics. All sounds by Stephen C. Smith, 2006-2007.
4150' is low-level noise and droned-out murk. No riffs.
This EP collects various tracks that may be familiar from live performances during the spring of 2006. Moving further into the modern sounds hinted at on past productions, MATH ONE emerges from the lab with some repetitive and imprecise electro-anti-funk, bringing lyrical examination of the trials and tribulations of modern high school (teacher) life.
This was recorded during December of 2005 by S.Smith.
