Pleading With Ghosts

A quick remix/remodel of a Hunz song “Soon Soon” I whipped up in a few days of chipping about on the laptop with Renoise.
>>> Pleading With Ghosts

Who knows, maybe the spooks like 4 part chip harmonies with a detuned Hunz as a wobbly bassline?

I hide in warm clothes
You hide in your briefcase
I guess we can call off
Our little battle of truth (game set match!)
We sit here and hope
That the birds don’t come down
And pick apart our stale bread offerings

Twitter

I have joined Twitter. Now all I got to do it figure out what to do with it! Maybe it’ll be a nice way to tease about what songs I’m working on. Or how bored I am at work. Who knows, it’s all part of the great social web experiment. So with much ado about …

Live 09 Preparation

I’m excited to announce that this year I’ll be making a return to live music, and more to the point: I’ll be playing my own music live. The last time I played my own music live it was 2005 and it was a less than enjoyable experience due to being scantly prepared …

Our Blood Is Black

Download the new song by myself and Mick Rippon – Our Blood Is Black
This was composed in seven swaps between Mick and myself over the last few weeks. The style of music is a strange mix of chiptune, breakcore, and a weird dark angry Arabic scale meshed into a pop …

DK2S and EMG85 Guitar Modification

Not many updates for all of you over this winter period. Needless to say I’ve been working very hard on a lot things: the usual Paradox album material, mastering other people’s work, and the odd quick collaboration with others. I’ve also been doing large amounts …

Alex Strain’s new Album

Alex Strain has put up a mini album of new material. Its release is a little premature given an unforgiving hard drive crash, and thus became titled The Album That Never Can Be (but Almost Was). The sound is raw and warm techno with analog elements. It’s certainly a …

Tape Machine Sorted

Not much to report just of late hence infrequent posting. However, it’s apt to share with everyone that my Tascam BR-20T reel to reel tape deck has been completely sorted out ready for pro-level mastering. I hear the geeks of you asking “what was wrong with it?” …
