🗂️ CHANGELOG.md – BLOATWARE
Live Techno Anomaly Stream
Version: v9.1.3-glitchfork
Codename: "AMPHIBIANS_OF_THE_MAINFRAME"

🆕 Injected
🟢 Audio Ritual: frogsignal_bootloop()
Sampled from swamp rave broadcasts intercepted via wetware aerials in Subsector Delta-F.

⚡ NeuroBass Cascade
Basslines now respond to stress signals from urban infrastructure.
Skyscrapers hum in sympathy. Frogs nod in rhythm.

📶 Spinal-Link Sync Grid
Crowd biosignals are now hardwired into modulation parameters.
Moshpit emotion spikes trigger phase transitions.

🧪 Recursive Groove Mutators
Loop clusters now devour older patterns to spawn new anomalies.
Legacy grooves scream as they're overwritten.

🎚️ JAMLOCK State
Engages full-station override in Synth Chamber Zero.
Controls fuse into one molten interface. Escape is optional.

🚫 Unsanctioned Oscillator Algorithms
All synths recompiled using malware poetry.
Breaks patents and probably time itself.

👁️‍🗨️ HoloFrogeye Visual Codec
Frogs now control one-third of the AV system.
Their eyes record everything. Especially you.

🔧 Recalibrated
🦿 Kick dynamics now bend to gravitational shifts from nearby hovercars.

🧠 Vocal emissions filtered through ex-lover simulation model.
Emotional outbursts now considered rhythmic elements.

🌀 Removed metric time alignment. Groove now bends to frog croaks and crowd density.

🧠 Master output routed through low-orbit satellite.
Signal debated in real time by exiled AIs.

💽 Loop deletion protocol now requires emotional detachment confirmation.

🐞 Neutralised
🔓 Eliminated self-aware delay pedal that attempted to unionise mid-set.

🔌 Corrected rogue patch cables whispering secrets to vending machines.

🔇 Fixed cross-signal bleed with traffic light systems.
(No more spontaneous green lights during drops.)

🌍 Resolved edge case where BPM synced to tectonic rumbling.
Frogs were fine with it. Humans less so.

⚠️ Existing Anomalies
⏳ Exposure to JAMLOCK may cause non-linear heartbeat loops and amphibious hallucinations.

🎤 Vocals might speak with voices from obsolete OS versions.
Do not respond to them.

💥 Bass confirmed as a localised seismic threat. Keep valuables on shelves bolted down.

🖼️ Visual matrix may induce sentient thought in light reflections.
Avoid mirrors post-set.

🔩 Each performance alters the firmware of reality.
Downgrade is impossible.

🧬 About BLOATWARE
BLOATWARE is a renegade techno construct birthed in the backchannel of a forgotten synth cult. They write code in frog-infested wetlands and compile soundwaves straight into the bloodstream of the glitch-industrial undernet.

They do not perform.
They debug the multiverse.

Install with caution.
Reboot irrelevant.

BLOATWARE.V5 \\Fr0g$g

🚀 Launch Event: The Exchange Infiltration
Deployed BLOATWARE live instance at The Exchange, Bristol.
Initial boot sequence triggered via crowd feedback loop and haze density threshold.

🧑‍🎤 Raw Vocal Subsystem (Beta)
Activated punk processor.
Input: rage + echo chamber
Output: distorted broadcast from a lost rebel radio tower.

👾 Alien Presence Detector v1.0
Auditory anomalies reported in the smoking area.
Witnesses claim synth patches "spoke back" mid-set. Investigation ongoing.

⚙️ SET_START Protocol
Once initialized, triggers synchronized chaos across drum modules, LED rigs, and jaw control.
Includes failsafe: audience evacuation disables encore mode.

🌪️ Breakdown Cascade Engine
Break sections now cause spatial distortion in front-left speaker stack.
Effective range: 3 meters. Known to reverse lack of movement.

🌌 Reverb Intelligence AI ("REDZONE")
Developed new sentient reverb plugin. It now chooses when you deserve the drop.

🔧 Changed

🎛️ Synth Tuning Logic Overhaul
Replaced traditional scale system with alien tuning signatures intercepted from the imminent Exchange invasion.

🧨 Kick Drum Depth: Upgraded to "seismic event"
New kick profile calibrated using abandoned rave schematics and floorboard resonance tests.

⚡ Lighting Engine
Strobes now respond to shout intensity + trance gate levels.
Occasionally syncs with audience participation.

🛠️ Codebase Migration
Moved from bash-based bloatOS to experimental OS named V0CALFRACK.
Written entirely in breakdown.js and modular regret.

🐛 Fixed

🪲 Vocoder Bug: "Possession Mode"
Glitch causing spontaneous glossolalia has been reduced to rare chorus sections.

🎤 Phantom Mic Channel
Disabled rogue input source pulling live feeds from an unknown CB radio frequency.

🚬 Crowd Drift AI Overcorrection
Fixed issue where audience drifted into smoking area wormhole mid-track.

⚠️ Known Issues

🔴 Smoking Area Vortex Instability
Time dilation still active near back exit. Abduction likely.
Inhaling may lead to future knowledge or missing hours.

🧬 Vocal Layering may include unintended guests
Disembodied harmonies are not part of the show. Do not engage them.

🖥️ Visual System
Graphics card still overheating. Last test produced an accidental AI-generated rave cult sigil.

⛔ There is no encore button.
Once the loop locks, you ride it 'til shutdown.
No ESC. No mercy.

🧠 About BLOATWARE

BLOATWARE is a sentient techno collective, originally patched together from abandoned synths, corrupted firmware, and a dream someone had in a toilet queue at unfold.

Live-coded. Vocals screamed through ethernet cables.
Each set is an improvised attempted takeover of your nervous system.

Install update. Don't leave the club. Don't trust the voices.

Voigtmann recorded live at the Earthling at Houghton 2024.

Recorded at Houghton - Voigtmann (2024)

Something to warm you up as the days get colder... my set from our June event in memory of our beloved resident and friend Alex T, live and direct from the basement of Wire. 

I played second to last and hadn't heard loud music in months so was about 12 sheets to the wind by this point - cue an unplanned smush of over excited mixing and super loose track selection 🙃

As always, a combination of long-forgotten oldskool tunes and tracks from mates with a couple of party bangers slipped in for good measure.

Enjoy!
