I’ve been sporadically recording for the past 3 years and those recordings are finally starting to take to take shape. So hopefully something will be released sometime in the next few months.
I’ve been posting more on my photography site because I hadn’t been making much music recently. However I was inspired by an invitation to contribute two tracks to the upcoming Rec72 anniversary compilation which is coming out in October. Rather than dig out something from the vault, I decided to record two new tracks, “Anima” and “The Final Days of The Space Cowboys”. “Anima” was pretty much done already but “Space Cowboys” was made especially for this album.
The album will feature 2 tracks each from Bitbasic, deef, Eigenheimer, Lofiuser, Pandacetamol, Radio Scotvoid, Small Colin and me. So in other words it will be a collection of top-notch Electronica made by a group of very talented people……….oh and some amateurish ambient noodling from me.
After many false starts, I finally have new music online. It’s a slight departure from my previous work, very minimal. I had to resist the temptation to keep adding extra layers and sounds.
Not sure where and when it will be released…………..but it will.
Some of you may or may not know that I used to be a part of Perfect Blue, not to be confused with the Anime movie which is where the name came from (not my choice) I was with the project for about 2 years and we made an EP Sunshine and one album On a Higher Plane (I always hated that title) I quit not long after the album so I could devote more time to nisei23
Since my departure all they’ve done is an EP of remixes by other people, they’re very good remixes but I’d be curious to hear some new and original material by them.
After only releasing EPs I’d been toying with the idea of making an album and after coming into contact with Net LabelRec72 I decided to make one, a lot of the tracks had already been recorded, some finished, some half finished and some like “Don’t Panic” were made especially for this album.
It’s entitled Soft Shapes and Rec72 is a Creative Commons label so that means it’s free to download.
