What better way to deal with a severe blow to the psyche than to strip bits of that shock out of one's head, peel the myelin sheathing from those nasty thoughts, and squeeze them into a "song?" Since my head was killing me (sinus/tension headache...so apropos today), I could barely consider doing anything other than watching Gyspsy 83 (a truly wonderful movie--more about that tomorrow, maybe) and writing some twitchy, stabby, disturbing pseudo-ambient garbage that in some way attemopts to reflect my mindset on glorious Christmas Day, 2004. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you:
Derek C. F. Pegritz - Psychotomimesis (12-25-04).
This is a hard song to listen to. It's incredibly skittery, incredibly tense, and damnear structureless....And, yes, it's a complete ripoff of Otto von Schirach and damnear everyone else on Schematic Records. So fucking what. I like it and I think y'all might as well, provided, of course, that you like music that sounds like nothing so much as a wash of structured static riding on a tidal wave of speakerbusting bass with a little fractured melody thrown in here and there and a whole lot of confusion.
This song will be featured on the new album I'm currently working on, Malpractice. I may very well add more to it--perhaps some slaughtered, piecemeal vocals or just more complex ambience and noise--and I'm probably going to change the title eventually to something like "Mandible Chatterer" or maybe "Temporal Lobe Disaster Warning" depending on what kind of lyrics I manage to scribble together for this beast. I can guarantee you, though, that they will almost certainly be violently strange.
Anyway, the mp3's encoded at 192, and it's about 10 megs. Download the fucker now, crank the bass and the volume, and scare your coworkers or your cat.
(Incidentally, Christyballs Greycat was sitting on my lap the entire time I was writing this, purring away....The cat loves Skinny Puppy and freeform noise-butchery IDM. Go figure.)
Ohyeah, and let me know what you think of this butchery. It's a bit of a new direction for me. Gods bless you, Renoise 1.5 beta.
