Spiral Blaster proudly presents:

Trigger Happy (live analog mix)

I'm not really good at long, flowery, and well worded fanciful promotional e-mails that take the reader on a voyage of the soul, but right now I wish that I was. I feel like a moron, I mean, I don't even have a theme, it ought to have been about the magickal spirits from the realm of the fairies, there ought to be some good ways to adapt a costume to the theme, you know, some way to make a sexy costume that has furry leg warmers, arm warmers, and wings, yet says (cut and paste the appropriate theme) all over it. For me it has been about solving problems, technical problems, compositional problems, performance problems.. I mean, after we invented the instrument, we had to figure out how to play it. Sadly, the problem with problems is that unless Janis Joplin has them, they aren't very sexy.

So anyway, Spiral Blaster has got some more FREE music for you all, 100% original, 100% live electronics, and NO LAPTOP computers. This has taken all of our combined wits, pocket change, time, and emotional stability to create this music, and its yours for free either by downloading directly from our podcast page:

spiralblaster.podomatic.com

or by subscribing to our podcast on itunes:

    ummmm... never personally had a problem with laptops or computers but as for this Spiral Blaster thing?

    my one word critique...

    bangin.

    If I get a second word... it would have to be fugghin... necessarily placed before the first word.
    • hey, yeah, wow thanks ... =)

      That's the nicest crit I've got in a while.

      Laptops are a dedicated vinyl DJ's worst nightmare... but hey, the only real reason for mentioning it, aside from my personal aesthetic concerns is that _not_ using laptops sets us apart from most other "live" acts, which is the other reason (no pun intended) for mentioning it.. that due to the proliferation of Abelton Live, it is not enough to say that something is 'mixed live' anymore.. that just leads to a confusion of terms.

      thanks once again .. I don't know whether full quality wave files will be made available any time soon, I'm not purely a philanthropist, so while I don't know if there is a market for PCM format audio, I'd still like to leave that option open.

      ..peace..

        In the surge of positive feedback we have gotten for our 76 minute podcast “Trigger Happy (live analog mix),” some people have asked us to make separated tracks available. So in response to your requests we have digitally released “Trigger Happy” as an album with separate tracks through our myspace music store. You can find our myspace music store on our myspace page, or by going to this URL:

        www.mesmerizationfoundation.com

        The original FREE 76 minute download is still available from:

        spiralblaster.podomatic.com

        Thank you for all of your love and support,

        ps. To recap our previous posts:

        Spiral Blaster is an electronic dance music (house, electro, techno, breaks) live PA act in which the music is synthesized in real time using a Serge Modular Analog Sythesizer built in 1978, about eighty-something banana connectors, an Akai MPC2000XL, a Pioneer EFX-500, a Funk Logic RNC 1773, an Electrix Warpfactory, and a Lexicon PCM-80 through a twelve channel Mackie mixer.

        Spiral Blaster is Stefan Tcherepnin and Orion Keyser.
