MXTX Sample Library
MXTX is a live performance, album, and an open-source audio sample library crossing physical and social boundaries. Created through a collaborative exchange, the curated, gender-balanced project involves more than forty dj-producers and composers from both sides of the Rio Grande. Jessy is a featured composer.
The Parkside Community School - Piano Arrangements
In 2021, Jessy arranged a collection of songs from The Parkside Community School’s songbook for solo piano. The accessible, thoughtful, and fun arrangements feature beloved classics such as “Don’t Fence Me In”, “Simple Gifts” and “Froggy Went A Courtin".
Jessy’s “Accumulation” is featured in Apricity Magazine Volume IV.
“Accumulation” is inspired by the large quantity of landfill waste produced by humans. Jessy and some friends kept track of everything they threw away for a week and recorded the recitations of the lists. The work first existed as a short fixed media piece and was later reimagined as a 4-channel sound installation.
XOR: A Chamber Opera
XOR (“ex-or”) is an electro-acoustic chamber opera composed by Jessy Eubanks, with a computer-generated libretto programmed and edited by Christian Clark and Brian Ellis. The opera premiered in the 2019 Cohen New Works Festival.
