Be aware of Beware of Trains...

I've put 'Beware of Trains' up on MySpace. This is the one that didn't make it to the upcoming compilation. The sound is a touch grubbier than the tracks that stayed (although it is meant to sound grubby), and it has a darkish repetitive bassline, ambiguous chords, and a lot of junk artifacts in the mix. All of which means it didn't fit in, but also that I'm quite happy with it, and wish to share. Enjoy.

More rambles coming soon...

Another month gone past. The compilation is progressing nicely. No, can't put a release date on it yet. I feel like that means it's not news, in which case I guess news means "something to sell". Well, nothing to sell just yet, so I'll carry on like last time with some hopefully amusing rambles.

I could add that for my own part in the compilation, I've changed the selection of material I've made, so there's a ready track looking for another home. It's called 'Beware of Trains', which may be good advice, but probably not relevant to any musical element in the track. Still, titles for instrumental music are like that.

Just wandering on...

Hmm, no great updating going on - the last entry was over a month ago. My apologies. Well then, what have I been up to? I didn't really cover much of that in the last post, so I guess there's something to talk about. I've polished up a couple of the new tunes aired at The New Science, preparing them for anthologising. As always, names are the last things I give my tunes, so I can't really tell you which ones. I think they both turned up on my live-to-air spot on The Session (for Active) the night before that gig as well, for anyone who caught that. At any rate, you can look forward to what I hope will be a tight compilation album from Angry Rabbit some time this year.
