a few recent works

i tend to be lazy around this blog and wanted to write a non music one so i thought 'well it's supposed to be about music' so here's a run down of a few recent releases and the rational behind them.




this album remixes laica's 'id situation (a 10" of which can be bought here taking the idea of cctvs and surveillance and humanising the machines. the second track ends with the death of two cameras and the feedback from their dead circuits.



this album was written to commemorate the centenary of the opening of world war one.

the tracks do not use lo-bit sound but rather a form of processing i developed to mimic lo-bit but still allow higher frequency responses - there are still unusual sounds present that you could not get in a lo-bit file

this idea was to mimic the often ludicrous use of noise reduction technology in the remastering of early audio and film, to allow an ironic 'documentary' feel to the work which would act as a counterpoint to the subject matter.




for this release i used the data from the photograph which forms the cover to create the music so, in a way, it is literally a portrait (and an ironic take on growing older)
