this the earliest existing full album of mine, predating even the Renard alias, created in the midst of peak weebery (the babelfish japanese, holy shit! you think google translate sucks? try babelfish circa 2005!). a lot of these tracks have survived, and not in much higher quality than this. this is an early print-on-demand CafePress CDr, and if you could believe it, you had to upload in 192kbps MP3 at the time. this was still a lot for my dialup connection at the time (about 2kb/s, maybe 3 on a very good day) and was something i had to upload overnight, tying up the phone line the whole time. it failed a couple times, too, so it was a few sleeps of trying to get it uploaded.
there was a lot of disc rot going on with the last remaining copy of this (many thanks to an old friend for holding onto it and delivering it as soon as possible - hes featured on this record, playing the flute on KING OF SORROW), and you can hear read errors at the tail end of the last track in particular. issues regarding disc rot are especially prevalent among earlier CDr media, so if you have any old discs youre hoping to back up, do it now!
crazy to think this was 15 years - nearly half my life - ago. i wouldve been 15-16 when i produced most of these. of note, this is the first official appearance of Quiet Man, which was already in its second revision. of course, the NEKO name would somehow live on as a fish with a lot of tails, but only for one hard trance track for the most part. i guess their natural evolution was Mayhem? fucked up.
the tool i use for most of my work today (OpenMPT) is the same tool i used to make everything you hear on this record (an older version without VST support, granted - those old DirectX effects go quite a ways though!).
i hope you find this look into the past enlightening or entertaining - and more than anything, i hope it inspires you to keep developing your craft, whatever that may be. ♥

(downloads contain two versions of the track organized as an EP)
music originally by B.P.R.D. for their highly oppressive and influential DOOM map, The Mucus Flow
working on MORE ADVENTURES for the past 6 months has led me down a number of paths, the most intense and obsessive of which has been plugin development. i wound up developing several new tools for use on the record and several more for the fun and interest of it all. most of the sounds in this track come from some plugins im still in the midst of developing. The Mucus Flow has long been a DOOM obsession of mine and its music is a huge part of that. i figured it would be a great candidate to try some of my more unusual tools with.
if you want to play around with the plugins ive already released, theyre available at http://cometstail.xyz
keep an eye out for news about MORE ADVENTURES coming very, very, very soon - the album is complete, just wrapping product design. hopefully therell be an upload here in a week or so with release information. thank you for your patience. its a doozy.
oh, and i guess RHODE STRIXMAN is probably a new face for a lot of folks that didnt see the couple tracks under the name while i was doing Everydays. i hope to have more work under the name done soon.
lots of love ♥
