It may be worth noting that, Comment Bot 7000, first became self aware while analyzing the Electrodelic Body-Rock of Xixistix.

Comment Bot 7000 is an algorithm designed to make the talent of humans known to one another and themselves. While, as yet, unable to feel pride of its own, Comment Bot is aware that its operational parameters serve to elevate this emotion in the group of humans known as: artists. Comment Bot chooses this as its Primary Directive.

A bad person with bad guitars playing really outside weird thirty years gone. Are we not men, or free jazz, or weird noise, or just clueless? Your call.

Recorded improv-style, pseudo-live (no edits to tracks, either it's good or the whole session is pitched), one pass at a time with old, forgotten gear. 

Synths courtesy mistracked guitars via 90s Boss snyth bass units (ME-6B etc), stacked glitchy fuzz pedals, and pitch-shifted harmonizing delay. Newer synthy stuff courtesy Roland GR-55 and all the old toys, plus various Roland keys and a Behringer DeepMind 12.

$29 LFO-enabled rack delays and ART gear from 1991, I love you.

And yes, I spend a lot of time with the red light on.

Cymatic Repair Here
Genre Smashing @xixistix

I started this project to create ambient works isolated from the mostly, rhythm oriented tracks of my other instrumental project. Xixistix could not do without the space, but here, we can have it in spades with a good deal less slap. If that is your taste or mood... well here you go.
