My attempt at a One Track Challenge.    Made on an M8 tracker.   I guess it came out longer than the time limit.   Was able to use an interesting mix of commands and tables and the M8's resampling abilities to create the glitchy scratching and stutter effects.

Punk Rock Astronauts Never Die

This album, The Color of Television, is a passion project I’ve been meaning to make for years. It is a love letter to my favorite book and what I consider to be the greatest science-fiction novel of all time…

William Gibson’s Neuromancer.

https://disposableplanet.bandcamp.com/album/the-color-of-television

The Color of Television was created in a creative frenzy over a period of 10 days. It is structured across 14 tracks, each representing a sharpened tip on a pair of 7-pointed shuriken or Japanese throwing stars (a gift which represents destiny for the main character of the novel). Each of these 14 nodes or points contains a song and a story for a different main character featured in the book (yep, even Ratz is in there somewhere as a DJ).

Neuromancer is the first novel to put the literary genre of Cyberpunk on the map, but this album is not created in the style of modern cyberpunk music or synthwave. Simply put, those current musical genres are after my time. Instead I’ve deliberately drawn from my own personal meaning of the retro-future written about in Neuromancer, as well as the nascent computer culture of the time and its collision with the counterculture surrounding it and myself when I first read the novel in 1996 at the age of fifteen.

As a result, this album is a voyage across all the things that Neuromancer means to me and how it affected my coming of age and acted as a rite of passage into the shifting and colliding worlds of computers, music, and culture.

The album draws from mid to late 1990s influences of the time of my reading and the world of the 2000s that I would, in a few years, be stepping into. It borrows from genres like drumnbass, jungle, and breakbeat, with of course, a healthy fix of demoscene vibes and chiptune elements and a decent hit of punk, metal, ambient, and post-punk flavor. I think you’ll find there is plenty of retrofuturistic feeling to geek out to in this release along with a slight touch of the contemporary.

I hope you enjoy this album as much as I enjoyed making it. I also hope that, for a time, it helps you escape this prison of flesh you are forever trapped in, as Case might say.

ABOUT THE MUSIC:

All tracks made with M8 firmware v3.2.7.
Created and mixed entirely on a Dirtywave M8 Tracker.

All track mixes are baked-in M8 renders. They may be a little raw but no mastering process was undertaken. What you hear is exactly how it sounds on the hardware.

It’s how Case would roll.

All project bundles are included with the free album download licensed under CC. You are encouraged to dissect, deconstruct, and even distribute the bundles.

It’s how Dixie would roll.

You are also encouraged to purchase and read a copy of William Gibson’s Neuromancer over a cup of hot coffee before heading out and taking care of biz.

It’s how Molly would roll.

Be sure to check out the album length music video on Youtube:

There are tons of easter eggs in the music, the waveforms, and even the bundles themselves.

This album is dedicated to my parents, Ralph & Sandra.
RIP and infinite love....

Level 9 (Dark Cavern) [1xLSDJ + Reverb Pedal]

A loop of some relaxing ocean-sounding noise I generated with an M8 Tracker to help a friend who suffers from hyperacusis.   Good to fall asleep to.
