303abuser I’ve seen the same with every album, which sucks because I feel like the end of my albums are always the best tracks. To be expected in a low-attention span environment I guess.

On first listen - closing track is definitely my fav.

      apyssjw Thanks for checking it out, that’s my favorite one on the album too.

        Here’s the new album with Essentia Sound. It starts in black and white and ends up in colour. Or at least that’s how I hear it.

          303abuser …nice, will have a listen.

          Did you ever hear the podcast about the guy that lent Moby his blues CD? Think I’ve mentioned it on here before, hilarious story:

              Unbroken1 I haven’t heard that, I’ll check it out. Thanks for giving the new album a listen too.

                That story is pretty funny, the podcast is a bit of a nightmare though lol.

                303abuser Finally got around to listening to it this morning. A very enjoyable way to ease the day in at work. Probably my favourite of the 3. Is this the final in the collab?

                    Henry Thanks, glad you enjoyed it. We’ll probably start another project next fall/winter, we both enjoy working together and despite how long this one took to get done, we actually work pretty efficiently now. I’ve got a solo album to finish up (I’ll probably have about 20 tracks done in the next month or two), have to get through racing season, then we’ll pick up again.

                      That’s great news. The sound that you both have is quite distinctive and evolving nicely.
                      20 tracks. Fucking hell. Have you been taking Mike Monday “Splurge” pills? In any case, one shall be looking forward to hearing that.

                      Haha I appreciate the enthusiasm. It’s funny how the sound evolves to something distinctive, we’ve honestly barely discussed it. We just pass stems back and forth until we’re happy. I think our skill sets compliment each other well, Stephen is a proper musician and makes up for a lot of my shortcomings.

                      I haven’t release a solo project in almost 3 years, so it’s way less impressive than it sounds. There’s probably an album and a few eps in there. Some of it is 80-90 bpm slow, heavy dub and it goes up to 140 bpm techno with a dubby flavour. I’ll just keep writing as long as the inspiration is there and sort it all out at the end.

                      Always wanted a mutronics mutator - possibly only because of it’s name. I’ll probably buy the behringer copy of it ever comes out.

                      Can’t believe it’s been 5 years already. Wish I had a pile of cash sitting around with nothing else to do with it.

                      10 days later

                      Congrats! Did you put it together on spec and send it to them?

                        apyssjw …I did. Know them a bit from projects years back, but still was a bit intimidating as they are ‘proper’ producers and kinda studio heroes of mine. Thankfully they both loved it and thought it was a really respectful approach. Worked out well in the end! 🙂
