Musical recordings are final: once put on disk all of the messiness of the production process is smoothed away. Gone are multiple takes, different interpretations, other options. Is there a way to recapture some of these nuances, to enable a different listening experience each time you hear the “same” piece?

Mutable Recordings is provides some answers to these questions. As a software interface it allows the splicing of excerpts based on user choices.

Development of Mutable Recordings is on hold, but please contact me if you would like more information.
