[2007] a game of numbers

After taking some time out to concentrate on Ordeograph, it was time to put together a new collection of Megaheadphoneboy material from the pile of not quite finished tracks that seems to pile up one every surface of the Beech Studio. This time the impetus was to have something new for friends at the Lab30 festival in Augsburg. Made up of more experimental works written simultaneously with material created specifically for improvisation on stage. All 29 CD-Rs were sold or given away and as one of the tracks has also been released as part of the FSOR debut compilation, it seems natural that Postunder should be the ones to give the album it's full netlabel release.

Starting with the whine of large electric motors and various other industrial sounds, the next three quarters of an hour will take the listener on a journey where the familiar and unusual will melt into one another around the structures of the drum machine. Like an adventure in the world of dreams, this album is best served in a comfortable place and at the end of the day when the mind can no longer concentrate on the exact. When the body is tired and before your appointment with the Sandman, get out those comfortable headphones, lie back, close your eyes and press play.

[2005] a plane flew over head...

written under the flight path of london heathrow airport and with a railway line within a hundred metres, the sessions were constantly interrupted by noise but between the elongated rhythm of planes and trains, the most delicate of british birdsong could be heard. this juxtaposition along with a very solitary and introspective time inspired this new album from megaheadphoneboy.

edited down from around 30 tracks and taking nearly a year to finish, the material was rejected and forgotten for months until the offer of two weeks in the netherlands and a new laptop provided the perfect opportunity to complete 'a plane flew overhead, drowning out the birdsong'.
a dawn chorus to send the headphones to sleep
