This is an EP I started back in January '06 (and finished around that summer). Back then it was slotted for a release on Spunktronics Records. Unfortunately, mr. Spunk is an insanely slowgoing man, so I figured I'd just put it up on the web (after a long fucking time of staying on the drive). It's ... "drill & bass", basically. Melodies and breaks, very much in that '96 state of mind, with a bit of modulation and odd scalework here and there. I'm quite happy with it. I also put up proper EAP links on the , finally. |

1: Awesome! Not much more to say, except that I never like the pitched voice that always comes with that breakbeat thingie you've got there. 2: Is this a direct continuation of the first one? I don't think it worked well; it just sounds like more of the first track, which makes it more repetitive right from the start. 3: I feel I've heard that stuff it starts out with before. It's a good track, but I think I'd like it better with microbeats for some reason. 4: Just ok, nothing more. Would you be up for a collab some time? |

i like the mood a lot all through, and there are some plaid synths in there i like. the production gives a lot of space around the instruments but still feels the spectrum. its chill, but i dont feel the songwriting all that much. |

2 sounds like a much better remix of 1 sorta. These are, great but... I havn't heard any of, your beautiful singing in these, tracks yet..., which is, needless to say, a disappointment. I'm listening to these while playing doom2. |

I liked most of 'Don Lope', save for the high-pitch voice sample that plays with every bass kick. It wasn't bad at first, but unfortunately, it grew annoying and felt a bit too reminiscent of Squarepusher. 'A conversion' is very nice. I enjoyed the sounds in it and the drums had just the right amount of punch. 'I am the wrath of God' is also pretty good, but once again I feel like I'm listening to a Squarepusher track when the voice sample comes in with the drums. You display a lot of creativity and technical savvy, but the end result doesn't feel completely original. The first track is my favorite (I really liked it), but the others didn't whet my appetite quite as much. Comparisons to other artists aside, you are very good at what you do. |

that break is a standard jungle break (the think break), essential for oldschool melodic junglism! |

I figured it was an intentional stylistic choice to go for that sound. I liked certain elements of every track, but, and this is not a bad thing, it felt like an unreleased 'pusher E.P. from '96 (that state of mind you mentioned). I guess I was expecting drill n bass mixed with the usual staz IDM weirdness, whereas this seemed almost 'mainstream'. Again, it's not a bad thing, it just didn't really feel like I was listening to the IDM magician himself, the one and only: staz. It's also better than 98% of the music that is posted on zilty, so take my criticism with a grain of salt. :) |

Yeah, I know where you're coming from... I'm working on a second EP that should suit that taste a lot, lot more! Thanks for the feedback, man. It's fun to see someone put a bit of effort into typing it up. |

Glad to be of service. Thanks for sharing your music with us. I'm looking forward to the "second helping" of Ether :] |

I really, really like the melodies from Huerequeque. The section from like 0:54 to 1:44 is just godly. It feels triumphant and moving, reserved but passionate. like aphex meets PBS... |
