--> this friday! aaaaaahhhhh!

i've got my set ready, just need to practice practice. gabbered up a few of my tracks and made a few new ones (just for live shows for now- not done enough to release). pretty nervous, but also pretty excited. scary thing is, all the people who have replied on the facebook page were born in like 1987.

i've been realizing that playing live is more fun when you are less married to your tracks, more willing to mess them up. like this will be more aggro than usual, and my next show next month is with some electro poppy act so i think that set will be more techno techno. this may seem obvious to some, but for me it was hard to break out of what the track "should" sound like. it's really only been since last dec that i've been figuring this out.

but all this playing live has really slowed me down on the new output front. like i said, there are a few tracks i've made for the crowd's dancing pleasure, so hopefully they will blossom into some glorious new creations soon. the label i though i had a release with seems to be on permanent hiatus, and another one that was interested had also gone quiet. if i don't hear from either one i am seriously going to think about putting it on itunes myself. unless of course aaron hears it this friday and phones mike paradinas and hold up the phone to him like in that scene in back to the future.

yes, although i did read somewhere for it to be really possible it would have to be a copy of yourself that was made, not the original. which is fine for hands and feet, but conciousness....?

i will try to finish up some of the tracks soon, they are rough around there edges cause songs in sets don't need no intros. the one i finished the other day is pretty rad, i think. gabber c64 fusion jazz.

yeah apparently through transporting particles we find out that all information is lost during transport.

but I did see that we can supercool hydrogen into a hyper viscous liquid made out of quantum waves and it slows light down to a crawl... I guess thats the opposite of the goal though. DRAT!
