So I'm sorting out a few tweaks to a couple of my final mix master tracks for the first of hopefully 10 albums I intend to release via #Bandcamp.

Over the last 3 or so years I began compiling the tracks for my 10 albums although some of the later tracks are not quite finished and all of them need work and mastering it has been a personally exciting project to work on.

Each album is chronologically ordered and contains songs, recordings, remixes and/or fresh versions of songs from or about each time period.

The first of these 10 albums, #Kiwifruit covers a period between 1985-1989 and was remixed from a range of sources from desk recordings at live gigs with #Wellington band #TheLaundrettes fresh recordings of songs that were written during this time period beginning 40 years ago #crikey an early recording of #BumpnUgly engineered by Brent McLachlan of #BailterSpace and Wrythe Studios fame plus remixed and reimagined tunes from my early 4 track recodings.

Kiwifruit will be available on Bandcamp from Mon 1 Dec #Aotearoa #NewZealand Time.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Sure seeing my parents will be cool, but maybe this is the real reason I'm going to visit?

Feel free to be jealous.
Timing worked out and I snagged the 1 of 1.
Splat is a great track, featuring a fantastic one-shot-in-reverse video

Splat | Music Video | NZ On Screen

Splat - This mesmerising video from American director Julie Hermelin's (Sarah McLachlan, Luscious Jackson, Moby) shows Bailterspace playing while New York streetlife passes by ... in reverse. It's a clever if not confounding concept when considering the band's performance, which appears to be forwards. Extraordinary processing and grainy contrast further enhance this one take wonder. Note the man "reconstructing" an apple with his mouth.

The Gordons [https://thebigcity.co.nz/artists/g/gordons-the]
The Gordons appeared out of (almost) nowhere in March 1980 to take the mantel of Christchurch's (and soon New Zealand's) loudest band; however they were more than just loud. It's the songs they created during their initial year and a half run that have fuelled the legend of the Gordons. Through blistering feedback and propulsive bass come visions of a dystopian future, and anti-regime anthems.
