I approve.

I like it.

Severed Heads fans GOTTA love this.

this is good

I'd been playing this on bandcamp all yesterday. Finally downloaded it and heard it without gaps. The sample construction is just priceless

Was just playing some DI for old friend's last night! What has he done up until now, after DI?

xpost Good question. He released a solo EP (I have a copy, but the name slips me) which was pretty tame compared to the DI stuff. I also recall reading about a band he was starting called Floor Show, which must have crashed before it ever took off.

Good picks on that mix!

Henry, was that a roundabout way of saying Floor Show never seemed to get off the ground?

just wish he'd work with some people and realise these a bit better, even a band thing

And...first full solo album, now up streaming:

Any thoughts on this?

I haven't heard it myself yet but I was under the assumption there might have been some chatter on here about it already.

Available via Bandcamp to buy https://iancrause.bandcamp.com/album/the-vertical-axis

i've heard all bar two of the tracks when they were up for individual sale. i like the tracks, though the mixes are annoyingly (intentionally?) cluttered at times which can be hard going over an album's length

Last track is wonderful.

And a new release, of a sort:

https://iancrause.bandcamp.com/album/el-faro-sessions-ep

I have just posted for sale a limited edition EP I worked on for a Spanish group, El Faro, almost 2 years ago and for which I was never paid, ergo I still own the mixes.
They will only be up online until either my fee (which was not that much) is met or until I am paid any balance still outstanding minus any download sales, which I think rather unlikely given past experience.
Anyay, I think the tracks sound pretty damned great so if you fancy some Spanish language pop music with Cervante-esque overtones (!) and me doing my moving pictures thing in the background (I used it to try out techniques I'm now using on my own tracks) then click away.... the 3 songs are available for $3USD.
Thanks.

I have a new record coming out at the end of this month as I may possibly have said.
It´s not influenced by Joy Division. Or Public Enemy.
Or My Bloody Valentine.
It´s drawn from a story from this book, another of which´s stories is posted below: the story of Arachne.
As someone once said "Get down and groove! We dance all day in this house!"

And it's up
