The long-overdue timing and gap removal fix for Release CCCV back on NovemDeka album.  The 2 second gap after "modus vivendi" was something of a scandal at the time.

This is not just the gap fix : there are other subtle speed and hesitation fixes in it plus a very slight speedup.

She's Got A Great Face For Philosophy (Gap Removal Fix Alpha)

Buy on Beatport

As I review these one by one some stand out and present themselves as things which would greatly be improved by some remasters, and this was one.

Love You Dearly, But We'd Shred Each Other (Alpha Remaster)

A little something I made out of Twitter/X Conversations and a companion for Foul-Mouthed Parrot regarding the present situation in the UK.

Lyrics:

Not much could be any clearer
I'm surrounded by a bunch of retards
Because i'm in a house of mirrors

It's plain to anybody who reads
/bin/true is the Sun Tzu
Of POSIX commands
It does nothing and succeeds

Captain Kirk is suave and debonair
I was there the day he limped the curl in his hair
I'd follow him to hell and back
But i wish he'd just stop going there

Muad'Dib is a Fremen Reepicheep
A man once dug a legal hole too deep
By cloning a massive succulent sheep
He was unjustly levied massive fines
For transporting testicles across state lines

I applied to be the priestess's familiar
At the ketamine pentagram
Having been sumptuously prepared
I sallied forth and declared
I've gone for the gendarmerie madame

She invitingly said, come as you are
But be mindful that nobody likes reverse centaur

The hiring manager with necklace impearled 
Said lets get down to brass tacks
We need the kind of guy 
Who shows up uninvited to the underworld
And then complains to Hades about the lack of snacks

I told her that when I seriously reflect on
How irritating inconsistency can be
I measure out my net positive effect to 
About as useful as someone gold-plating a tree
She said you'll do fine, you'll soon-enough see

Assume spherical cows are rational actors
And a number of other simplifying factors

During these very odd days of potential strife 
I found myself questioning
Is a nut pick generally
A Southern grandma's swiss army knife
A Venn circle diagram of this phrase
Gets us into a weird area
As the coppers rode the tram to the site of the blaze
Perhaps it's all just a cultural hysteria

Middle-tier’s a mirage 
Luxury floats, the bottom scrapes, and the middle gets juiced
It does little good to ape Nigel Farage
More direct methods are needed when hell is loosed

The protesters' tract had on its cover
"Intellectual hipsterism for compulsive contrarians."
And our boys had begun to have read they discovered
Its contents were spastically argumentarian
And tended to passively malign
By preferring von Neumann to Einstein

A sign on the road said
This is the locus of paranoia
There's something uniquely evil about a gas pump that plays ads twenty-four-seven
The fellows who devised that aren't going to heaven
Their contraption felt about as cheerful as the Garroted Man by Goya

Every generation thinks they invented sex 
And utterly futile arbitrary political violence
A nasty looking crowd was rattling the fence
At the edge of the beastly infotainment complex

When all roads are crooked, none are
But these fellows in the middle of the street were taking it too far
Or as they say in England, Allahu Akbar
They were out this fine morning to protest
In support of the man who'd genetically engineered the best
Mutton from Brighton to Brest

I wanted to jump in and attack the throng
But being too early is the same as being wrong

By following the advice of my uniformed cute little bird
I directed to circle the wagons and shoot inward

She screechingly directed the troops 
But they fell short of breaching the barrier
Ask a woman their pronouns
If you don't like their fashion sense
They'll coldly try harder if not merrier

A struggling lunatic raved out clear
If you need some cringe shock therapy, I'm here for you bro
As the lieutenant drew herself up like a pro
Her assailant exclaimed
Where'd her tits go
She fired back Sir, you are in love with a brassiere.

We gradually defeated this truculent horde 
Only to subsequently find
Cassowaries on our left, kangaroos on our right
And the Angel of Death behind

Captain Planet he's our hero
Gonna take the TFR to zero
And after the few have undertaken to bury our bones
They'll finally speak truth about the Georgia Guidestones

My sense of humor, bleak though it be
Saw me through the stress of that misery
Comes meus fuit in illo miserrimo tempore

Or As They Say In England, Allahu Akbahr (عام سَعيد Version)

The game jam called for a piece indicative of Sunrise and since I had not done anything for the Silmarillion list around this in-universe period of time other than the actual crossing of the Helcaraxë up to Mereth Aderthad, I decided "ok here let's do this".

The map of Beleriand in this variant was done by NoobShyCo of DeviantArt and his roommate (Antoine Becquet) in about 2012.  It is altered to a Mercator projection by myself and made two earlier appearances (release CXXXVII and CCXLVI)

I liked the result of doing the Mercator and realized suddenly that the bend of ancient Arda's geometry matched this end product, if we pretend that the Chasm of Ilmen was the black space at the extreme left beyond the diagonal bound of the projection.

It would have been more proper to draw some remainder of Araman's coast personally but time constraints didn't permit.

Anar Rises Flaming In The West / Fingolfin Arrives In Mithrim

The game jam on Itch calls for a theme evoking 'moments before disaster' so the thought is some action movie sequence before something is going to blow up or some such.

Moments Before Disaster (submission for Weekly Note Composing Jam 2 for Itch.IO hosted by emscottish January 2025) (Acoustic Draft)

Moments Before Disaster - submission for Weekly Note Composing Jam 2 for Itch.IO (Acoustic Draft)

The draft was a little too fast to be ambient but it's a start.  Some finishing in MixCraft 10.5 Pro Studio was done before finally submitting.

Lost City (Submission For Impressions Ambient 2 Jam For Itch.IO Hosted By KaleOverlord January 2025)

Lost City - submission for Impressions Ambient 2 hosted by KaleOverlord for Itch.IO

A therapeutic journey into a mix of jazz, classical, and a blend of types of electronica.  And a wry, gradual observation that promotion tends to only go as far as you push it.  At least I make my fellow musicians laugh a little.
