Downloading now, looking forward to checking it out

[Guest Billov]

Enjoyed the video, maybe a bit amature but things sync up surprisingly well

[awepittance]

thanks, if i held myself to a professional standard of making the video (tripods, etc) i probably would never have made it.

[cear]

seems like i missed this one, thanks for bumping! :)

Mixcloud doesn't let you download the mix. Would appreciate a download link for the mix only!

[autopilot]

This is really fucking good and you should be proud of yourself.

[awepittance]

thanks mr. autopilot means a lot coming from you because i admire your ability to keep up with and curate good new music out there, not to mention you are a quality composer yourself

A lot of people have novel ideas, but the occasions are rare when they have the drive/ambition/talent to actually pull off those projects successfully. I'm happy to say this is one of those cases.

Wow! This to me isn't just a mashup. It sounds like the source tracks have been "abstracted" more than in your mix from last year and therefore the end result sounds more...new, more yours? I don't feel like I need to know where each snippet comes from, this time around. Very nice, respect! Will try to post some recommendations soon.

good to hear. i wasn't sure how many people would just pass over it assuming it was the same thing i posted last year. but thanks, much appreciated.

[Salvatorin]

just biked in to give these mixes some love again, A+

[awepittance]

yo! i never bothered with doing a 'key' for this release, but i will reveal that every single track title with the exceptions of 'Rick Santorum Smokes Salvia Divinorum' 'Juanita Ciardelli' 'Johnny Rocket-Ball' 'Applebaum Watersnake' 'Chicken Hypnotism' 'Would You Say I Have A Plethora Of Piñatas?' 'Abadox' 'Québécoise Italo' are anagrams of the artists that i sampled in them.

For instance

track 18. Arcjet Penhorn = John Carpenter
Track 4. Ramadan Greek Winter Trek = Tangerine Dream and Kraftwerk

Track 13 Leaf-Laden Amber Hued GUI = Human League and Brad Fiedel (Terminator OSt composer)

I wish you good luck in trying to figure out the rest : ) .....

1. Dacca Thermotensile Loony Smut Syst
2. Baba Rube Drone Lions
3. Ice Age Fire Loving Zool; Troy
6. Abc Condom Motorist = Trunks Tony
8. Basal Metabolic Rate Niggle Vishnu; Intr. Slur
9 . Cinema Isn't Soul Sorn
10. Gomez Childs Shult
12. Dead Pink Sphere Pussy Envy
14. Abaca Cede, Love to Lie......... Iris Truly
16. Endless Saccharic Acid Deed... Every Show Oozy
17. Calcium Cyclamate: Eighteen Helix Horn Worms
19. Applebaum Watersnake
20. PPink Sun, Venial Gypsies
21. Where From Tape Deck Ked
26. Pierce Molten Dog Rose

fyi, Part 2 will be out by late May/early June.

I'm open to requests of stuff to sample, any ideas? This time the cutoff will be extended to 1985, instead of the previous cutoff of 1984. 1 year makes a much more extreme difference than I had anticipated. Pretty much opens up a whole new world of sampler and fm synth abuse.

I'm currently collecting last minute ideas for 'proto Tuss' sounding stuff from before 1985 here

Proto Tuss sounding stuff would be awesome, would love to hear more like this. Keep it up, your music is great!
