Name: Happy Birthday [The Birthday Massacre remix FULL VERSION] by INfest8
Duration: 5 min 29 s
Description: I did this remix for The Birthday Massacre many years ago. I still get a lot of requests for it, so I've decided to put it up on SoundCloud.

Thank you for uploading this! My favorite remix from Violet.  I've never heard the opening before today.

Is this in any way an official remix, or you just playing with it? Either way, doesn't matter. Love the original, love this!

FLOUT "Malice"

I know what you're thinking.... I'm just jumping on the Kate Bush/Stranger Things/80s nostalgia bandwagon. Just hear me out.

This "Redux" is an idea I've had for a number of years. I remember hearing the cover done by Placebo one night before heading up to the DNA Lounge in San Francisco (Death Guild), and thought it was a really good cover. It stuck in my head, and I thought it might be nice to do a remix or a redux.. but something a bit "harder" if that makes any sense.

So I sat on this idea for a while, and never really got back to it - life gets complex. And then... Stanger Things comes along, and the song rockets back to the public consciousness.

So I guess you could technically say I'm jumping on the bandwagon. But really, the ST connection was just the final kick in the pants I needed to actually do it.

So there is it.

Happy Birthday [The Birthday Massacre remix FULL VERSION]

Black Raven is a new English mis-translation of a traditional Cossack folk song that is well known in Russia, reworked through the lens of English folk and blues. We found it while researching world music about corvids – crows, ravens, magpies – which are a kind of clan emblem for us. The tune feels soaring, magnetic, with extremely deep roots. Something in the melody transports us, seems to open up a landscape, a trans-temporal space of connection with something very big, and very old, and very dark.

Special thanks to Sophie J of Thetford Grammar School, who won our competition to design the Black Raven image.

What musical traditions do copyright laws protect and threaten? Do all musical cultures hold equal status in the eyes of the law?

Over the last decade a spate of legal action related to unauthorised musical borrowing has made international headlines and thrust music copyright into the global spotlight. From 'Down Under' to 'Blurred Lines', court rooms around the world have been transformed into music lecture theatres in which the parameters of original musical thought have been charted, challenged and dissected.

To unpack this topic, hear from:
- Professor Ingrid Monson, Harvard University
- Robert Yezerski, barrister
- Dr Christopher Coady (Moderator), University of Sydney

This conversation was recorded on Tuesday 8 October at the University of Sydney. Learn more: https://bit.ly/2mla9w9

An unfinished track from 2010 unrelated to Failed Assimilation and one of many MP3's sitting around from prior projects either with John(vocalist of F/A) or just working on alone, there is some small chance of being able to save the files of this one, but i'm not holding my breath.

I've been making electronic music as INfest8 off and on since 1999. I was previously in (along with Steve Voidloss) industrial-trance outfit Pulse (UK) and industrial unit Grace.2146 prior to that.

I also make music as Other (https://other-au.bandcamp.com/) and z(cluster) (https://zcluster.bandcamp.com/).

I really enjoy remixing and I'm free: get in touch if you want to work together.
