VEKTROID PRESENTS STARFLIGHT IGUANA HEY OK READ THIS GUYS ██ yeah hi ok, so I just want to clarify that this release isn't an ██ official album, it's just a back catalogue of various things I've ██ played with and either abandoned or sampled into larger tracks. ██ I had been meaning to release part two in particular as a film, ██ but my priorities have sort of shifted back to producing strictly ██ music so I'm putting it on hold for now. This is mostly dead noise ██ though, so I don't expect many people to sit through it in its ██ entirety (see: Night Signals II) so I've been hurrying to try and ██ get it released before 2010 is over. I've got a lot of other ██ "real" tracks coming in the next few months, so this is mostly for ██ the people who began listening to this project for the technical ██ aspects of the music I was producing (about two years ago now, I'd ██ assume?) as well as those crazy filthy assholes on last.fm who ██ helped me get into this sort of music again. ██ ██ ████ *big up 2 my doggz* ████ Betamaxx Argiflex Kyotosapian 4CV RHelen S27 Vanity House My fellow last.fm trolls ~*the blogosphere*~ ████ TECHNICAL GARBAGE ████ ██ ██ FORMAT: MP3 ██ QUALITY: 320 CBR ██ CHANNELS: JOINT STEREO (it's essentially mono, though) ██ METADATA FORMAT: APEv2 ██ ██ RELEASE DATE: 12/30/2010 (HAPPY NEW YEAR ENJOY THE TAPE HISS) ██ ██ ████ TRACKLIST ████ PART ONE (IN) A - vegas ferrocolor (00:30) PART TWO A - chopping mall (01:51) B - futurekill vextron (03:35) C - saturday nite c-c-cobra (04:16) D - thunderflexxx passin out (03:42) E - clff (07:54) F - odd spawns (02:08) G - defcon grease monster (02:15) PART THREE A - starship witch virgin (05:51) B - wave diggin (04:09) C - holy dooley chainsaw diane (01:54) PART FOUR A - space brat hulkamania part three (03:23) B - kabukiman nypd vs the aztek skeezball squad (04:28) C - virtual laser dudette (04:33) D - cluckin bell interactive cunt destroyer (04:41) PART FIVE (OUT) A - wild zebra kidz klub (01:20) ████ DESCRIPTION ████ ██ ██ This is a tape collage. It's a series of abandoned samples and ██ tape noise recordings I did between the months of (approximately) ██ Jan '10 - October '10. But, as I said, this is a COLLAGE. A ██ mixtape/bootleg of sorts. If it's tough to conclude from the ██ titles--this isn't a "serious" release. It's not the "next big ██ VEKTROID release", it's just a collection of sounds that I've ██ assembled, mainly for my own safekeeping. I've got a fair ██ number of other "true" recordings that I'm holding onto for now-- ██ that is, this is by no means a preview of what's to come. I hope ██ you guys can gather the sort of style I'm approaching with this ██ piece. ██ CHAPTERS/TRACK LINEAGE ████ ██ ██ One thing that I figured would confuse people is the tracklist. ██ This was recorded over a number of sessions and was originally ██ a four track album prior to the tracks being split/reordered. ██ I added the "parts" to the COMMENT field in the track metadata, ██ but here's a bit of (truncated/incomprehensible) background ██ info: ▓▓ 1: SNOW MILDEW (LATE NOV 2010. TAPE ORIG. 1979) ▓▓ 2: NITE KULTS, as dstnt (JULY 2010, DIGIT. TAPE ORIG. 1996) ▓▓ 3: MIDSUMMER NASTIES SESSION (AUGUST 2010? PUBLIC ACCESS SAMPS) ▒▒ 4: TURQUOISE GARFIELD SESSION (OCT 2010, DURING TELNET PROD.) ▒▒ 5: BETHOOVEN ON THE MOOG (SAME SESSION AS #1. SAMP FROM 1992?) ▒▒ ░░ *that section was mostly so I'd actually remember where the ░░ hell I got my sounds from ░░ ██████████████████ ~*THE FUTURE*~ ██████████████████ ██ ██ This year has treated me really well. Thanks to all ██ the folks around from the Vektordrum era that were ██ kind enough to continue channeling their support ██ despite this drastic change in direction! ██ ██ FULL LENGTH COMING IN 2011 ██ -VEK ██ FAQ YEA
