A track from around 1999, which I dug out from the archives… The only track possibly enjoyable out of nine on the CD. I’m publishing it as a historical document. The track was created with Sonic Foundy’s Acid, and is basically a bunch of layered chopped up beats, spiced with a minimal amount of non-beat samples. Enjoy?
Made a rather long time ago, this is a straightforward drum & bass track built on a couple of samples from the movie The Matrix. I think the piano is sampled from a Miles record, although I’d have to do a bit of listening to verify that. All in all, it’s nice, but not revolutionary – you’ll find reversed and pitched snares, a rather braindead bass line and other things you’re used to if you listen to this kind of music. I still enjoy listening to it, though.
Versuz is the name I used, and occasionally still use, for beat-based music. That’s where I started out, and am coming back to at the moment. I’ve spent more than five years focused on creating 15-minute ambient masterpieces, which has resulted in two or three good tracks – in order to keep up a certain level of productivity, I’m now decided to accept three-minute techno experiments as being just as good as 15 minute ambient soundscapes. Hopefully I’ll feel confident enough about some of those experiments to publish them here.
