Oh dang there's a new Trichome album:

#electro & #idm , the Experimental Liquor Museum style.

A neat article about the rediscovery of Project A-Ko's film print over on Crunchyroll's website:

written by Paul Chapman (AKA Gooberzilla, who I know as the host of the GME Podcast).

Received an M-Audio Conectiv audio interface today, one of the old ones made for M-Audio's Torq DVS system. It unfortunately has a broken Input A Phono/Mic/Line switch. After disassembling the unit I was able to force the switch into a usable position. The audio interface seems fine otherwise.

Next steps: buy a raspberry pi, install xwax, do DVS things.

Kind of a disjointed set, my selection of DnB is pretty limited. I mixed myself into a corner around the 45 minute mark. Was a good time though.

MTT 218 / Sublimate https://djcev.com/2021/04/mtt-218-sublimate/

Drum & Bass and fast #electro up around 160. Labels featured: Astrophonica, Militant Science, Next Phase Records. Artists featured: Client_03, Infest, Jega, Stratowerx, Synth Alien, and more.

Spent a few hours today flipping through the Exit Records UK catalog on bandcamp. Picked up way too much music, a bunch of old stuff I remember from the Autonomic podcasts.

This, for example, is sick:

Posting really early because I'm gonna go to sleep soon.

MTT 217 / Short Waves https://djcev.com/2021/04/mtt-217-short-waves/

90 and 100 BPM business. Ambient, downtempo, electro, dubby stuff. I felt like hearing some old '90s tracks and relaxing a bit.

This mix features music by Apologist, FSOL, Global Communication, Paul Blackford, and more.

Currently playing endless duels versus bots on cpm22 to avoid writing.

CW: Food

Having a cup of green tea and a very large peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

Comfort food.

CW: MH, Sleep

For most of my life my natural 'day' length has been a bit longer than 24 hours. I sleep fine, just usually not when I'm supposed to. I woke up today at midnight, for example. In a week I"ll be waking up at 6 AM or something like that.

I guess the term for this now is "Non-24-hour sleep-wake disorder". I've never been formally diagnosed; I should do that at some point.

If I ever disappear for a few weeks it's probably because my sleep schedule doesn't line up right.

I doubt I'll be playing this for an audience or a mix any time soon, but dang it's good:
