Since '07 bby!
Well I’m happy to get lost city, not too hot on the others
Holy shit, Lost City.
Two unreleased tracks from 2016 from myself. Free download, or pay-what-you-want.
Emergency:
This is essentially a remix of the 1977 UK punk classic ‘Emergency’ by 999. When I first started production, I wanted to combine my punk influences with my electronic influences in an interesting way. The original track by 999 was one of the first tracks I heard that inspired me with my ideas. I heard the solo guitars in the intro and thought I could do something with those. Compared to my previous two tracks; ‘Innocents’ and ‘Psycho Killer’ where the electronic influences were a lot stronger, ‘Emergency’ has more of a live-band feel. I was discovering coldwave and minimal wave, and those influences were beginning to creep into my music. I was also still listening to a lot of bass music/dubstep at this time, and maybe you can hear those influences in the track too, particularly in the 140bpm tempo and half-step beat.
They Don’t Understand:
This was my first track that wasn’t at 140bpm. I slowed things down to 120bpm, although the live drums make it feel faster. At the time, I was listening to a lot of Powell, Not Waving, and Broken English Club, and I was inspired by the idea of ‘post-punk techno’. About 90% of this track is made from samples from old punk records. It’s also the first track that I used hardware on. I had bought a Roland R8 mkII drum machine, and so beefed up the percussion using this.
What hardware and/or software did you use for They Don’t Understand?The R8 mkII is mentioned, but what about the rest?
Wtf i thought Lost City was Mala lol
always thought it was a collab
Waking up to loefah put up copies of mint goat stare
What why lol
The R8 mkII is the only hardware I had at the time, so that’s all that was used. The rest is samples I took from old punk records that I’ve manipulated and messed around with. Arranged and mixed in Logic 9.
I saw the email from Loefah’s Bandcamp about 10 minutes after it was sent, and it had already gone. Wonder how many there were, and who got them cos no profiles have appeared on the page where it usually shows who bought the item. Maybe it’s just a troll.
Both og and repress go for insane amounts these days, thought this would be worth posting.
was probably only a few copes
Took me a while to find this years ago.
Much prefer this side to the other side, top 5 El-B for me
I never stood a chance haha, saw it in DVC with a post time of 10 mins ago this morning
Posted this already over in the SNDubs

It’s a compilation album btw if you click through, one of the sides is exclusive to the cassette and there are a few digitals not contained on the cassette.
