They say life phases in seven-year cycles. Skweee may be the same.

For the past 2,820 days, polyhacker extraordinaire and OG cyber grandpa Firedrill has careened from his origins in the hardest digital synthfönk to inhabit an even more twisted sonic lair. Like a forgotten computer server still carrying half the 'Net on its back, Firedrill now lives humbly in a cave: but this cave is stuffed with tasty tasty 12-bit chip riffs, naughtily-aliased electro beats, and smooth FM squeak. It's music made with computers, and it tastes like all your favorite morsels and treats. Come in, plop down, plug in, snack on these Cyber Snax.

I Need A Nap Im Skweepy

Daeji Part1

Recently recorded during post-installation testing using only samples from the Hideaway AKAI S612 Sample Library currently bundled with the popular XD-280 Disk Emulator I developed a few years back. The XD-280 consists of a modified Gotek disk emulator and a custom drive interface which bolts directly onto the rear of the S612 replacing the bulky and sadly very unreliable original MD-280 Quick-Disk Rackmount with a modern USB flash drive based solution.

These 12-bit samplers might only have a tiny 1 second sample memory but they sound lovely and, in a weird way, I often find their extreme limitations quite inspiring!
