about

Temperature spikes around Acer HQbrum (H-er Q-brum?) have delayed the grand design of other releases. Gotta meet the heat where it’s at - enjoy some ersatz dance tracks - that incorporate a lot of samples I was trying to use in some of my earliest tracks, actually.

Materials used:
Akai Timbre Wolf
Casio CZ-5000
Korg SR-120 MiniPops
Radioshack Concertmate 380
Yamaha PSR-11
Yamaha TX7
Yamaha TX81Z
Zoom 505

Includes samples of "Scrapple from the Apple" by the Charlie Parker Quintet and by "Comme" by Françoise Hardy (please don't ask me which parts specifically I'm not really sure at this point)

"Massages from the Stars" includes samples from "Say You Really Want Me" by Kim Wilde, "Assembly" by Ryuichi Sakamoto and "I Got a Line on You" by Blackfoot

Special thanks to Nicky Tettamanti for her ears!
