I was lucky enough to be asked to contribute a remix to AxWax's latest EP - CLONK!
You can hear it this Friday as well as attend the listening party for it - stream.axw.ax @ 19:00 UTC (see image for more time zones).
I also mastered the whole EP.

Loved this tree shadow on the old city walls right at the end of the day. Lucky to be walking past at just the right time.

if that ever happens, I'll let you know

and while we're at it - "does anyone have experience with..." does not mean "does anyone not have experience with, but fancies having a guess which shows, as clear as day, they don't have the first idea what they are talking about..."

FFS when will I learn that asking advice anywhere you don't know people will just lead to an interaction with someone who either hasn't read the question or doesn't know the answer but will share their 'wisdom' anyway.

And it's always a man.

I don't know what the film is like, but I really love the NIN Tron soundtrack.

Particularly love the way they've nodded to Wendy Carlos.
