Died for Your Science

life is so goddamn complicated, Heidi

this is probably a bit too long without a change or 2

eyes bursting within my skull

This is one of those things where I experiment and sketch a thing out in a couple of hours and then ultimately don’t do anything with it. I considered adding some vocals but that would make it a bit more industrialized metal than I might be ready for. Regardless it was an interesting experiment. 

In case you are curious: The bass signal chain is EHX big muff Pi > DOD Bass Flanger FX72 > EHX Super ego > Boss Hypermetal. The drum bits are the Elektron machinedrum run through audio damage Grind with a little EQ / compression for fun. Oh, and the drone bits are the bass part pitched, stretched and layered a few times. It’s dark in here.

Proem "Pine the Bear"

I've always been a massive fan of Boards of Canada, if its not obvious already!  10-11 years ago I stumbled upon a bootleg recording of one of their extremely rare live performances at the Warp 10 Birthday party in 1999.  The closing tune at this show has always remained a mystery to me.  As far as I know it has no title and has never been released.  It's quite possibly one of my favorite things they have done and really is a shame it never came out.  You can hear the original bootleg recording (quite bad quality) here : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PYEZueAelKc

Fast forward to Summer 2012...  Since I am a huge nerd I decided to take this bootleg recording and re-produce it for fun.  Using the recording I laid new drums over the existing drum patterns (almost 100% accurate to original), replayed some synth parts and the bassline.  The only thing I didn't try to re-create was the original vocoder parts and some random samples so I used the bootleg recording for that.  I was tempted to make a shorter 4-5 minute version but I figured I should preserve the piece in its intended length (although the length was most likely due to it being a live jam).

Downloads limited to 100 (sorry I still haven't upgraded my account).  I do not claim rights to the original nor do I intend to ever sell this.  Not sure if I'm violating anything or not with Soundcloud so grab it quick!

Update : Ha! Somehow the 100 download limit thing got bypassed, so download freely!
Updated Update : This should work! http://soundcloud.com/selftitledmag/boards-of-canada-untitled/download

Happy Valentines Day everyone.  Love takes a new meaning.

As heard on my Boiler Room mix from December 2011.  I wanted my DJ buddies to have a chance to play it out for a while before giving it to the world for free.

Hey luvs

This mix was originally posted last year on Clash Magazine as part of their podcast series.  A mix for celebrating fun in da sun.  

Here's my description on Clash from fall 2012 :
This mix is a soundtrack to your Indian summer, if you’re having one right now, or a mix for those people that are in need of a lil’ sunshine. It’s a very summery/sunny mix to bring you out of your fall funk. Lots of juke/footwork and a lil’ jungle thrown in for good measure. There’s some jokes in there too. I went for the more soulful style of footwork instead of the colder minimal tunes meant more for the dancefloor. I played this exact set at the XLR8R boat party at Dimensions festival in Croatia this summer.
