So the time has come to move on and move forward to new musical climates. I think i have learnt a lot from these last few years. I just need to move on to do something else. So, this is the last release that i am going to have an active hand in (There is a remix i did coming out on 12" sometime in the new year.) What you have in there is an hour and a half of material. The first part is a mix of stuff that i could never get quite right. However when I sequenced it made some sort of sense. The second part is just some old tracks really. Some of which you might not have heard. That is if you have been following me at all. I apologise for it is a megaupload thing. I hope you enjoy this. |

is it clever to change a name you've worked up, though? i'll check it zune. |

It feels right at the moment. One of my main reasons for doing it is that trying to make it work nearly broke me. I want to do things my own way from now on. We'll see how long it takes me to go back on it I suppose. : ) |

I'll be checking this stuff out after I've finished this horrible essay. But what do you mean by "trying to make it work nearly broke me"? If you'd rather not share, that's fine. I'm just curious. |

1. It is really hard to make pople give a damn about anything. Especially when it isn't very special and you know it isn't. It's living a lie essentially. 2. I would rather just create and do things my way. I have some very different ideas i would like try out. 3. There is far too much mental baggage attached to the name. I would rather be free of it. 4. Most importantly: I am trying to recover my mental health to a point where i can actually function. I have been really down in the shit for easily 6 months now. Some of which has been really very dark. The added stress of trying to make this work hasn't made things better. Doing music is something i have always considered as therepy and fun. Until this year however. Considering those reasons. I think it makes sense. I do feel a little better knowing that i will not have to worry about these things for a while. Doing music is something i have always considered as therepy and fun. Until this year however. I feel this due to decisions i cannot change. So, i am making this choice. |

I can relate to a lot of that. But I think the stress might come from realising that you have made something special which is being ignored, rather than an inability to keep up a pretense that it is special. A lot of what we think about what we create is governed by what occurs outside its creation, and that can be really destructive. The quality of it isn't always a factor, and the creating part is normally very fun, or at worst, a bit frustrating. |

I really don't think it's anything special though. I think we'll see as to whether i do anything under the name again. I just want to create and not worry about names. |

i think i'm gonna listen to all of this soon on a cursory listen, there are some clear gems in here. i really like 'feeding a misanthrope'. you shouldn't give up. i understand the idea of changing names, tho. it might help clear things out. |

I didn't know if I wanted to download this so I listened to some of your tracks on last.fm - I like the "pomme rips" track. Is it about Pomme de Terre farting? It's so pretty. You must really like his farts. :D |

haha |

Haha, no. It is because the piano sample sounded a little like the one in the colour of pomegranates by Susumu Yokota. So i thought it would be i would reference it in some way. |

I enjoyed this. There was, however, one song, somewhere in that first track, the 42:50 track.. it's got a voice being pitched around a bit.. where have I heard that song before? Is it something you've spammed before, a remix of some track, just that track, or just some kind of coincidence where you've made exactly the same song as some other people? |

Erm, that's a remix of Odd Nosdam i did for the Anticon competition. I did spam it here but it fell off the front of the board very quickly. |

cool i'll give this a listen i remember something of yours from a few years ago that is still fresh in my mind. Had some sample of a girl going "is anybody in here?" or something... I remember i felt very amateur after hearing that... |

I finally got a chance to listen to some of these tracks, and I really enjoyed them. I'd have liked some of them to go on a bit longer, but that's not a bad thing, really. |
