music production update

I just uploaded a couple new things to the interspace, so I thought I should share.

This first track is a work in progress, working title Three tails. A moody arpeggio sketch, trying to pinpoint a disorienting theme.

And this one, this is interesting. Ras is an ancient track for me, back from, oh, about 2005. I found it buried on my computer, and it still feels like one of those flying dreams when I hear it. it was built on inspiration by the dub master Scientist, and the track as a whole is borderline ridiculous, but that’s the way I like it. I remember spending days on end barely eating, getting close, intimate and sweaty with this synth sound.

There’s more over at Soundcloud, if I managed to tease your ears a little.

Microsite for my DJ alter ego

I’m working on a pretty substantial visual project to go alongside my dj gigs, so I made a quick microsite to represent it on the web.

With the project not being finished and all, I can’t show too much yet. But I’m putting some photos from live shows and stuff up there, so there’s something nice to look at.
I built the site with Cargo, a lightweight CMS from CargoCollective. Great people.

At the same time, I’ve been putting on a few paint strokes here as well, even though you may not see it at first. Mostly my category archives are a lot prettier now, have a look!
