Hey colonymike, great! I'll definately check out that video, hopefully I can figure out how to work it on my computer...
Well, I had a computer crash but it's now working again... all my stuff is saved to cdr's though as data files. I guess I havn't got around to it yet because I'm not really ready with a finished product... I'm glad that you remembered me, heh heh. I guess I've uploaded most of my better fairly finished tracks to www.mp3.com/artificialselection (along with a good deal of audio wankery) so you can always listen to them from there for the time being. I also have a new track "TUTFW" that I think is among the better things I've made at www.mp3.com/snarkle.

I dowloaded crunch "laurel" and like it a lot, it's a little simpler compared to tracks on "1/nullpluze", ....maybe an analogy is a "peel sessions 2" as compared to "lp5". Great tracks, the first one almost has that magic art pylon quality of insane sound wizardry, just not as realized maybe. The second one is rather weird, stumbles along with a weird beat based on math rather than what obviously sounds correct or something, sorta like a confield track, like parahelic triangle or whatever it was called. Crunky's awesome, quirky little beeping videogamy track. Can't wait for that new crunch album, I'll probably be buying everything they do since tracks like toe tac tic are among my favorite out of anything I've heard anywhere. I also bought those 2 cd's you recommended gearhound and noodles foundation off of www.forcedexposure.com, I havn't heard them enough yet, but they seem ok but definately not magical like crunch.

hmm... I can't seem to find the video on groovetech, or did you mean the album would be downloadable, (not the video)? The album is almost done then? Great.

yeah what i meant was the album is almost done just waiting for a few more of the rmxs to come back in and then we'll master it and put it out at which point someone will upload it and you will be able to download it (and hopefully buy a copy : ) as for the video it was shot in a victorian manor a few weeks ago (all spooky) on 35/film and is currently residing in avid being cut before the fx are done i believe, it is coming out later in the year as a single/video type thing . . .
check out the gt show if you get a chance, and look out for delikatessen 1,2,3 if you like that stuff !!
the laurel ep is an early sampler of crunch 2 it is darker and a bit more solid in the beats than crunch 1 marking a move into a different feel for crunch 2 , bit_meddler is remixing toe tac tic by the way so you should be pleased . . .
later ; )

It's entertaining/interesting to see nobody's replying, see nobody even knows crunch pretty much. Yeah yeah, any sense of taste in art must surely be entirely subjective right? but our brains and senses were all created by the same process of evolution. All well, crunch's 1 is a masterpiece of artistic creation in my book... well specific tracks anyway. I will officially buy the new crunch from you mike thereby supporting the artist, lol, (even though I reckon I've mentioned that)

got the lusine mix back today (very nice) daves back from the us soon so we'll finish it off then and the album should be out at the beginning of august, the video is out in october and there is a crunch remix of evac coming out in september in the US as well as the delikatessen 10 inch that came out last month.
Colony will probably be putting out some tracks by half of cold fusion mafia as skoptik soon too, some electronic noodles glitch core apparently
: )
glad you like crunch 1 we will probably re-release it on colony next year with crunch 3 or the year after whenever we get round to doing it . . .
have you checked out
abstrakt knights (www.halflife-recordings.com)
new ep out AK:EP:02 has had some good reviews in DJ / Jockey Slut this month (one half of crunch is involved along the way) headnodding in the key of armchair supposedly
psi-spy BREAKS-LP coming soon (monstermunch)
lots happening so i'll keep you updated
look out for the tipper 5.1 stuff coming too not on colony though some US label : )

The amazing thing about crunch is the way they mutate the sound effortlessly. An example is during the end of one track, it sounds like lots of microscopic rice krispie popping, but then they mutate exquisitely into water trickles, which just shows how much control they have over the sound. Most music artists would just have a wav file of a water trickling sound, they wouldn't be able to alter the data of each individual trickle unit, because it would just a big clumsy wav. Merzbow tried creating stuff like this maybe but it mostly sucked. The title of that new EP is called "AK:EP:02"? I doubt I'll find any results for that in any search engine... where's that review if you remember wayout? Mike isn't the incredible hulk or something is he?? Or is he your mom? hmm...

review in urb ? cool . . .
secret, no secret just not relevant really got to keep perspective it's all about the traks . . .
the next album will be called crunch 2 then probably the next one will be crunch 3 (nice and easy that way)
if you want to but col002 you will be able to at the colony www (www.colonyproductions.co.uk) in August . . .
yeah dave is just mixing it at the moment and it'll be around september i think on dvd (5.1 / visuals) as well as stereo CD i believe, keep a look out !!!
on GT radio 2morrow as half of abstrakt knights 1-2 uk time during the day if anyones out there, more old favorites than glitch-hop though probably ...
