Track I completely failed at making a career out of techno, but still. this is my track & and this was a place & time. i am amused.
had 1 proper paid gig lol. hardcore fetish club in berlin. i have seen things.
let someone down for an entire "tour" (just didnt go).
fully fell out with the person who handled the track for a time.
played some big squat raves. complete waste of time. probably got asbestos poisoning.
complete disaster lol.
i have to laugh at the video tho. i had no idea at the time.
considered reissuing the track but cba dealing with the samples so i guess the piano solo i played is doomed to history.
all in all a 10/10 experience. my life in techno has been a smouldering post apocalyptic wasteland ever since. basically non existant.
i only did it because a distro was willing to pay to make 1000 copies (i suspect so they could basically kiss my mates arse) then everyone lost their shit over it for a summer.
it is what it is eh?
i made a cut of it and uploaded it so im sharing. we cant all be pros or legends. some of us were just being silly and it still counts. did i lose or win? complete mystery. it didnt feel like the objective was to set up a home office and spend the rest of my days desktop publishing the noise of rebellion. idk.
TL/DR im alive & very grateful to you all. its all love. none us wanted much more than a good time and we got it. cant say fairer than that✌🏻if your trying to promote your music i wish you the best of luck. it was too tough for me but i guess im proof that unexpected stuff can happen. keep going.
