Today I was tidying my garage a little bit. Shocking, but true. I now have found lots of space and quite of lot of junk that needs to be got rid of, including boxes for things long sold or disposed of.

I also found a CD of my last batch of tracks I wrote before coming back from the Netherlands. They’re actually the last tracks I wrote before getting swept up with work and my new career, so much so that I’ve not got around to writing music since.

So here I am, listening to Iota’s debut album, Web of Detection. Written, recorded and mastered in the first half of 1998. A grinding, minimal, distorted chunk of techno, except for summer, which is just lovely, as is the bit at the end of funnel. All made with a Roland JP-8000 synth, a Akai S3200 sampler, a cheapo mixer and a dollup of software.

I’ve renamed the artist suitably, otherwise it’ll conflict with another artist no doubt already in Audioscrobbler.
