Hello hello, sorry, life and health and Google got in the way and I've not been able to get this updated for a short while. Typically, this short while has seen the release of a lot of news and music. So here's a roundup:
The 'Papua New Guinea' / 'Murmurations' double a-side 10" from 2012 appeared, somewhat out of the blue, on Bandcamp. A box of 50 copies were found, made available, and sold out within an incredibly short time; as a bonus, an unheard track 'Murmuration Skies' - an alternative take - is included in the download edition. It's a sparser, eight minute version with structural similarities to tracks like 'Hollow Earth'.
On a similar note, two archived remixes of Smart Systems track 'Tingler' have been added to the Bandcamp page, both made by Kouncilhouse in 2007/2008 - Tagg Remix and Smokin Breaks.
In other news, Papua New Guinea Translations is back in print on vinyl, and finally available from Bandcamp. To celebrate this, an EP of five new remixes by Yage is also available; two are fairly straight-forward rearrangements of Translations tracks, while the other three are radical reworkings. This is a 12" and download release.
Mind Maps 2 came back into print and disappeared once more in the time away. Sorry if you missed it!
February's calendar track arrived without fanfare - or notification - and is called 'Spherica'.
Pulse Four is back in print again and completes the reissue campaign for the series. This just leaves six 12"s from the Passion Music era not to receive a reissue in some form or another.
