this is pretty insane sounding... I don't think i've ever heard anything like this before.

Nick decided we needed to put out a compilation to help further cement our kudzu-esque rise as purveyors of pervertry. Once the smoke cleared and we got all the blood out we were left with these ten tracks. We love you.

Sunday Evening Jam

A collaborative effort between myself and SERTAVE ( https://soundcloud.com/sertavednb ).  140bpm, strongly influenced by UK Dubstep and 80s Industrial.  This song was bounced around between Maschine, Reaper and Fruity Loops, with many sounds being re-sampled from a Circuit Mono Station, a Pittsburgh Modular Lifeforms SV-1, and original ensembles created in NI Reaktor Blocks, and subsequently granulized before arrangement.  The track's been kicking back and forth between us for a while now - this is version 52 of the song, and that's not even counting the original recordings that kicked it off.

Runner - Super Sleuth - Out Now on Faction Digital Recordings FDR

The VRL plays another guitar-ish solo, with drop-thumb bassline built-in - that's all just emerging from the generative patch I built.  Other than a little reverb, there's no editing, layering, compression or other effects.  The richness of the tone that comes straight out of the VRL is really amazing. as is the twangy timbral profile.  I thought I'd have to get a physical modeling synth to get into this kind of terrain, but the VRL goes there.  I love it more and more.
