Net control is the latest concept album by artist Monopole (a.k.a. Richard Sudney). The whole idea of this album was taken from the natural occurrence of electromagnetic wave propagating through the ether. Like the waves being generated on the waters surface from a stone being thrown into it; this album takes these wave disturbances and mimics it over 6 tracks.

The material used in this album are hand crafted by Richard Sudney. Field recordings that were used, contained various samples of shortwave broadcasts of data transmissions , others are from vintage reel to reel tape recordings from the 1950’s of radio transmissions. A home made audio possessor was used along with a $30 key board synthesizer, and hundreds of pain stakingly put to gather micro samples. All of which made “Net control” a crafty album.

About Monopole (Richard Sudney)
Richard Sudney was born in Detroit in 1978. As naturally curious individual he was drawn towards electronics and shortwave radio at an early age. It wasn’t until his late 20s and early 30s during college when he amid his curiosity to netlableism. “In a media like the internet where free thinking is the material of it’s construction, it’s a no brainier that netlableism exists in it”(Richard Sudney 2009). In 2005 Richard Sudney (a.k.a. Monopole) started creating simple melodies on his computer by ways of using software based oscillators. As time went on, Monopole a self tough musician, got a hold of a children’s keyboard synthesizer at a flea market. At this time, being a student in college studying electronics, it was natural for Richard to make electronic devices, so he set out to make a audio processor which is to accompany that $30 key board. This processor can be heard in many of his compilations. At the present time Monopole is growing away from cheap synthesizers and leaning too sounds of short wave and field recordings made by him with a homemade field recording apparatus. “Micro samples of field recording that I made while roaming around abandon factory’s and houses in the Detroit area, are the next level of electronic music after the synthesizer and processor. It gives the impression of lofi but still maintains the electronic feel.”
