Let's Play Silly You - VIDEO

Here's a video I put together for "Let's Play Silly You," from the Cannibal Hours album. Cannibal Hours is the second album released by The Paranoia Room, my experimental electronic-noise project. You can still download a copy of the album free from the Mediafire link: The Paranoia Room - Cannibal Hours The album is the 4th official release from the Subvert From Within label and mixes big beats, circuit-bent toys, bass, and abrasive electronic noise with lots of weird samples. You should download it NOW. Did I mention it's FREE? :-)

In other SFW news, I am finishing up work on the Eula Mae acoustic record, Centaur Songs, that I recorded last summer. It is unlike anything I have ever recorded and is a real labor of love. It basically started as a challenge to leave all my electronic tomfoolery aside and write "real" songs. I'm not sure if they can be considered real songs or not, but it is an interesting little listen that I hope someone out there will enjoy. There is also a good deal of material by The Paranoia Room laying around that I want to release this summer as well. The tentative title of that record is The Capitalists.

But, I am the most excited about the Gridcrawler project. I am working steadily on tracks for that record and am hoping to perform some of it live soon. Gridcrawler represents my immersion into EDM and laptop music. I love the energy of the new electronic music scene - dubstep, electro, witch-house, glitch, drum and bass...I'm lovin' it all. Gridcrawler is a combination of the elements from all those differing forms that appeal to me. The commonalities between the different forms, if you will. It is more structured and more well-produced than any of my past work, but it still bears the anarchic spirit that Subvert From Within Records is based around. I cannot wait to play the shit live!!!

As always, thanks to everyone who reads my corny little blog or downloads my weird little records. It is genuinely appreciated. I'll leave ya with this quote I found from Alan Moore (who I think is a genius!): "I don’t distinguish between magic and art. When I got into magic, I realised I had been doing it all along, ever since I wrote my first pathetic story or poem when I was twelve or whatever. This has all been my magic, my way of dealing with it."
