Novelty, (Side A: Conservation of & Side B: Ingression of) was originally recorded on cassette in 1998, and features a few New Releases from that time (mostly House with Techno Elements) mixed with comparable tracks released ten or more years prior. The "Theory of Novelty" refers to points in Time/Space Relativity, or the interconnectedness where different paths in time "reconnect" in a different space, thereby giving new definition to matter through perspective or "imagination". What was once "The Past" now becomes relevant to "The Future", perhaps in a backwards or reverse fashion. Conservation of Novelty is where imagination perceives something "new"; while Ingression of Novelty is where everything is "returning" toward a coalescence simply by continuing to move forward. Novelty the cassette demonstrates how this same philosophy applies in Music, especially of course in Underground Music.

"...the story of the universe is that information, which I call novelty, is struggling to free itself from habit, which I call entropy... and that this process is accelerating. It seems as if the whole cosmos wants to change into information. All points want to become connected. The path of complexity to its goals is through connecting things together. You can imagine that there is an ultimate end-state of that process - it's the moment when every point in the universe is connected to every other point in the universe. - Terrence McKenna
