about

This one is okay. I like it. I did another one late last night. That one was very simple and very quick. But it didn't sound it. It sounded really clever and complicated and when I got up at 5am I found that the upload had failed.

It was a sign from Mother Hyperminimalism. So I deleted it and quickly did this one. I was really stoked for having something new on Bandcamp. You know what the hyperminimalist urge is like - if you go for a couple of days without pumping something out of yr body then yr parts start to wither.

I only really respect musicians who churn out lots and lots of stuff. It's healthy. This one was made with that panicky rushed feeling. It's not perfect. Which means it's perfect. If I was a perfectionist I'd get rid of those couple of moments when it loses the flow. I hate music that loses the flow. You understand.

Another thing. I find that the file-size-limit that BC imposes on free users is a very good idea. It's meant my pieces have shifted from 79 minutes (CDR limit) to about 28 minutes. It is ludicrous for someone like me to use the word "popular" - mercifully - anything for a quiet life - but I will - my music is less unpopular now that everything is less than a third of its usual recent length.

Maybe three times as popular. If we could only be strong enough to halve and third and eliminate all of the few ideas in our music we would be really progressing towards a wonderful new hyperminimal luddite future.

I'll be adding more tracks to this album over the next few days.
