lyrics

unreleased, from 2013

by late 2012 i'd had my fill of being annoying on purpose and felt a need to make something more personal that i could take at least a little seriously, and started making spacey, bass heavy "dubs" in early 2013 i released "Black Condom", a self titled i worked extremely hard on, and wanted to redefine the project with. it was a mix of alien feeling ambient pads, midi orchestral music, and heavy dubstep beats with no amen breaks in sight. (i was starting to collect sound packs, and used one drum and bass pack for almost the entire album) basically, nobody fucking liked it , and looking back i see it as way too plodding and badly produced. not that my previous stuff wasn't badly produced, but i prefer the embarrassing stuff i had fun with to the joyless braindance i was making here. but at the time i was prouder than i'd ever been of an album. this track was a scrapped interlude that i probably trimmed to make the album more lean. just softsynth drones and samples of an old robot dog i had as a kid. this is an early example of me sampling objects and pieces of media that i have personal memories with, that ended up totally defining what i did later that year on "Sentimental Bias"
