This is just an ambient piece. I can imagine that one day I will work on this more. The track title is a small nod towards August Ferdinand Möbius (and i guess also Johann Benedict Listing), creator(s) of the half-twist circle aka “The Möbius Strip”. August Ferdinand Möbius was also a character from Brian Lumley’s “Necroscope” books, and to cut a long story short, there was a place (or un-place) called the Möbius Continuüm which featured as a major plot line in the books.

This track is something I didn’t really get into when making it. It stands unfinished, and pretty crap. Sorry! :P

This track takes it’s title just from the fact that the music sounds a bit dirty and grim. This is a fairly early track I made, but I kinda like it. I dont really have much to say about my state of mind when I made this, I guess I was just experimenting.

The track title of this song was inspired by living in a flat which had absolutly no heating available. I was freeeeezing in my flat whilst making this track, and I really could see my own breath. The song kind of sounds cold and desolate too. It fits, I think! :)

The song title for this track is inspired by the toothache I had during the making of this track. The ambient crowd noise was randomly recorded in my old flat when i had a lot of people around chilling and socialising. I really like this song. :)

Another title which was inspired by living in a noisy house! The music itself though is quite chilled. I like this track. It kinda reminds me of Shpongle in a way, although it was accidental. Check it out! :)

Building Machines To Kill Aliens With

This was one of the first few tracks I made with Sony Acid using loops. The inspiration for the title comes from my neighbour at the time, Robbie (RiUvEn, Rhubarb). Before he was doing the projects he is doing now, he was the drummer in a band called Mexico (actually an awesome band, which unfortunatly split up) and the rehearsals were originally made in the room above mine (usually when I was sleeping). Robbie was also pretty famous for painting aliens everywhere, on his walls, on his playstation… Everywhere! So thusly, when I made this track and gave it this title, it was during this period of noisemaking, and i was referring to Robbie in a humerous way. This is a pretty strange song, I can imagine a conveyor belt with aliens on it heading towards a huge big squishing machine. Maybe you will hear what i mean in the song. Enjoy!

This is another track I worked on with Robbie Morris, who is Rhubarb as well as RiUvEn. Robbie did a lot of cutting of samples using Audacity, making the cool scratch effects and also he did the vocals. I did the music bits with Sony Acid. This was another session made because of having no internet in the house we lived in! I like this one. Check it!

BoOm BoOm BoOm (RiUvEn BoOm)

Back when I lived in a flat in Liverpool, I lived underneath a guy called Robbie who was a musical talent in himself. He managed to get quite famous on the internet with his music under the name of “RiUvEn“. One night there was no internet throughout the house, so Robbie and I sat down and chilled out making this song. Robbie put some hilarious rapping over some beats I threw together on acid, and this song was the result. I don’t know if non Liverpool people will understand all the lyrics, but they are really funny! Robbie actually took the lyrics from some of his other tracks I think. Ive definatly heard them used elsewhere! Enjoy!

You Make Me Hate You So Much

You Make Me Hate You So Much (Most Recent Version).

I don’t feel the need to openly talk about what (or who) this song is about, it matters not anymore. But I will say that it was part of a healing process which I went through. This song has also had a few versions. Unfortunatly I cant seem to find version 1 anymore, (which was an incredibly short version with no guitars). I suppose I could recreate it, but there is little point. Below are 2 other versions of this track, both of which have different guitar recordings to this more recent version at the top. Also, one of these earlier versions has no bass guitar on it. This track seems to have a few different styles of music on it. Suffice to say, I think this track sounds like 3 different songs pushed together to make one song. That wasn’t the intention, it just ended up that way. The most recent version is version 4, I think.

Chaotic Landscape

Chaotic Landscape (Most recent version)

Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.

This track “Chaotic Landscape” is probably my favourate that I have made so far, infusing a mix of electronic beats and guitars. It is also a track that has been altered many times during its development, and to this day I still consider it to be unfinished. Below, I will also show versions of this track as it was during early stages of development. If i make a new version of this track, it will go at the top of the page here, and the version it replaces will join the other versions below. So far it seems that the most recent version of Chaotic Landscape is at version 8.

As you can see, apart from the first two versions of this song which are actually very different recordings, the other versions are very similar to the most recent version. The only diffences between them are very slight (for example an extra part was added on each version, or the version got extended slightly).

I hope you enjoy! :)
