A collection of unreleased and unavailable tracks mostly from the early 2000s.

01. Hypnotic Pulse
Unreleased from 2004. This is essentially a unofficial remix of "The Hypnotic Pulse Of The Motor driven" from the amazing #4 lp by The Telescopes. It was meant to come out on a Satamile compilation years ago that fell through.

02. Interfere Complex
This originated in about 2003 but didnt see the light of day until 2008 on the Precession EP on 0x3. Strangley I seem to have been the only two releases on that label, not sure what happened there.

03. Straight Edge
My first available release. This was on a CD compilation by Neuromantek in 2002. Neuromantek was a really great and "proper electro" club that ran in the early 2000s in Dublin. They asked me to play a few times & I always had a ball.

04. Enape
Unreleased from 2003. All of this stuff was recorded on hardware kit only direct to cassette - so lots of mistakes, red-lining the meters and the like.

05. In Meroman (Boris Divider Mix)
Boris contibuted a killer mix of this track in 2008. Its full of his trademark touches - pumping bassdrum, vocoder & syncopated synths.

06. Skull & Bones
The other track from the Precession EP. This was from 2003 too and my new Machinedrum is 99% of it. Props to Elektron!

07. The Boom Is
Unreleased & the oldest track here, from about 1999. Done completely on an MPC2000. I have a few versions of this on cassette but theyre in too bad a shape to rescue.

08. Running On Empty
Unreleased & originally from 2004. This was only ever played in livesets, a jam session on the MPC, depending on the crowd reaction would end up in an electro or techno direction.

09. Little Fury
Unreleased from 2003. The new Machinedrum getting another rinseout along with the trusty Evolver. The stack of hardware from this period may be gone but the DSI will always remain.

10. In Meroman
Original of this from 2004, on the mysteriously dissappearing 0x3 records - how digital releases can go out of print ill never know!
