Apparently it's that time of year again, cuz I went and made another album!

http://75orlessrecords.com/crotchthrott ... al-syntax/

http://crotchthrottle.bandcamp.com/albu ... nal-syntax

Physical CDs (limited run of 25) come with complimentary mini-pins & stickers along with a note of thanks. Digital downloads come with... um... artisanally crafted 1s and 0s.

As always, my undertaking this ridiculous sort of thing wouldn't happen without ILF and the wonderful sense of musical/gear exploration the forum inspires in me on a daily basis. Fr'realz, yo. You guys are the best. Several forumites get extra-special mention for their specific help on this project (though they might not have even realized they were lending a hand), either metaphysically or gear-tastically. In no particular order: bigchiefbc, mudfuzz, steevdeadman, chankgeez, Tigerbass, behndy, smallsound/bigsound, curt, McSpunckle, magiclawnchair, theavondon, masked elwood, Eric!, Haki, skullservant, warwick.hoy, pumpkinpieces, nychy (I can't remember his whole damn username - it's too long!), ohsojayadeva, metalmariachi, kostas, bassus sanguinus, blooghost, Scruffie, stanimal, Tom Dalton, everyone who came out to ILFNEM and... fuck... a lot more people that I've probably totally forgotten to mention.

So yeah. There you go. Do wit' it whatchu will.

Hope you dig it! As I recall, the tracks you (and by you, I mean your pedals :p ) assisted with the most were Seersucker Proxy and Carbon Pivot. Though I never take track notes, so it can be tough to remember precisely what went where when, if you know what I'm sayin'.

Did that track not play? I just finished uploading everything an hour or so ago - sometimes it takes a bit for Bandcamp to get it all sorted.

No, I meant you didn't use those pedals on that track.

I like this. I like this with much gusto.

What's the word with the drums--loops? persons? They sound great.

Awesome! I know we've got some overlap in our listening preferences...

The drums are all loops of various types - some default Garageband ones that I've manipulated with delay and rearrangement, some purchased, some purchased and manipulated, and occasionally some that are two or more sets of loops played at the same time. I can't front: I can't program for crap, and certainly can't play on my own. So I use whatever's at hand! :thumb: Glad you dig 'em. That used to be the hardest part, but I've gotten better at getting what I need out of 'em (I think).
