Here are some new and updated releases:

Lucas Darklord – Handheld Apocalypse

These selections represent a sample of individual works, experiments and never-to-be-finished pieces produced between 2005 and 2007. Some pieces mark the beginnings of failed projects or redundant tangents, whilst others came to be for unknown reasons. All compositions are intended for most appropriate use in managerial meeting rooms, executive boardrooms, vaults, darkness, at volume and with influence. It is advised that this composition be played in all work places both before and after work each day. This music is without genre and is Dark Corporate Techno, Dark Grinding Corporate Ambience, Dark Corporate Art Core and 21st Centuary All Family Punk.

Lloyd Barrett & Paul Forbes-Mitchell – Humming through Schizophonic Air

The pieces on this album were created using a specially designed system code-named “Habitat”. Autonomous artificial agents feed on live and prepared sound and vision, excreting their own mutated variations which are then collected and presented for listener edification. The process is the culmination of combined research by Paul and Lloyd in the construction of a live electro-acoustic audiovisual engine that draws from both academic and underground practices.

Lucas Darklord – Asmoir

These are the sounds received from our first interdimensional probe, Asmoir. This epic work now includes parts 4, 5 and 6 plus high quality images. The current duration is over seven hours. The concluding parts 7, 8 and 9 will be released later this year.

We have a two week break from classes, so I’m looking forward to catching up on writing, paperwork and sleep (I can’t sleep before 3am, so the morning classes have been killing me).

We have a two week break from classes, so I’m looking forward to catching up on writing, paperwork and sleep (I can’t sleep before 3am, so the morning classes have been killing me).

In social network news, I left Facebook a few months ago cos it was taking up too much time and is, let’s face it, evil. Twitter has had a lot of hype recently, so I’m checking it out again, although I’m still unconvinced.

I keep vacillating between privacy and openness online, deleting or hiding info, then showing it again. Right now I’m back on Flickr, Last.fm and YouTube, and have also created a YT channel for Alias Frequencies.

One thing I’ve noticed about del.icio.us is that making your network private means that the people you’re following can no longer see that you’re following them. I’m sorry if I offended anyone who thought I’d stopped following them!

Lastly, my blog recommendation for today is the hilarious rantings of Tom Ellard. For someone who was always anti-blogging, he’s a great blogger!

OK, break over, back to writing! Schnell schnell!
