the language of despair

...was looking for a way to turn off those annoying "web push notification" requests Firefox keeps shoving in my face and encountered this sinkhole of the English language. If you truly "love" a website you can probably find a way to "engage" with it, without having your browser asking you if you want to be "pushed" by every website you visit.

Pushy, pushy.

"Happy Industrial Hellscape"

Streaming version on Bandcamp: 02:24 min

From my current release Similarity Engine

.wav files from the St Celfer sample archive added some noise-oomph to this track. Also featured are time-mutated ambient sounds I made with the Qu-Bit Nebulae synth, and some sequences made with other Eurorack modules (I can't remember which now).

The screenshot of the Tracktion Waveform DAW tells you little or nothing -- that is to say, as much as the wave file images that Soundcloud uses. A crude "indexical" record of the music, not a score per se.

Re: Discogs bootleg policy (update to an earlier post)

Last year I wrote about the record-collecting and trading database Discogs. At the time they were still allowing the sale of bootlegs but that changed not long after my post. A few people have contacted me after finding my writing in search engines to tell their Discogs tales of woe. Yesterday I updated the post to discuss the bootleg issue.

This track started with cut-up pieces from "Little Computer Tune."
A riff from the St Celfer sample archive was added, also one made with the Helm softsynth.
