about

Extremely early experimentation in sound and music before necessary recording knowledge was acquired resulting in most tracks being unfortunately recorded at 22050 Hz and some tracks even at 11025 Hz. This collection of tracks have been restored to as high a quality as possible without sacrificing too much of the desired background textures that were often a result of primitive recording techniques. It is disappointing that several tracks had to be omitted from this collection because it was impossible to reach the balance between acceptable listening quality and sustaining the sounds that made the tracks unique and interesting. Hopefully what's left gives the listener (assuming there is any) and insight into the mind of a teenager (at the time of recording) who was beginning a journey into the avant garde.

Influences: Coil, J.GThirlwell (Foetus/Steroid Maximus), Aphex Twin, Vangelis, Jean Michel Jarre, Throbbing Gristle, Skinny Puppy, David Bowie, Brian Eno, John Carpenter, and Fad Gadget.
