Been listening to it the whole way through this morning, and it’s great. Slow but rich, muted but textured, dark but dreamy electro with hints of New Order and Galaxie 500. Dig it.</p> </blockquote> <p>Thanks yvynyl!</p>http://and-er-ah-um.com/post/426666143http://and-er-ah-um.com/post/426666143Thu, 04 Mar 2010 11:35:22 -0800<embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://and-er-ah-um.com/swf/audio_player.swf?audio_file=http://www.tumblr.com/audio_file/372748464/tumblr_kxdwv6CbpH1qz4gl2&color=FFFFFF" height="27" width="207" quality="best"></embed><br/><br/><p>Coil “Restless Day”</p> <p>“watching TV in the afternoon, wasting my life away”</p>http://and-er-ah-um.com/post/372748464http://and-er-ah-um.com/post/372748464Fri, 05 Feb 2010 11:59:30 -0800<img src="http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kxa5u9HOwy1qz4gl2o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://and-er-ah-um.com/post/369131730http://and-er-ah-um.com/post/369131730Wed, 03 Feb 2010 11:22:57 -0800<img src="http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kx0v12YC7T1qz4gl2o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://and-er-ah-um.com/post/359969817http://and-er-ah-um.com/post/359969817Fri, 29 Jan 2010 10:51:01 -0800<embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://and-er-ah-um.com/swf/audio_player.swf?audio_file=http://www.tumblr.com/audio_file/359969436/tumblr_kx0uxdwrGw1qz4gl2&color=FFFFFF" height="27" width="207" quality="best"></embed><br/><br/><p><a href="http://myspace.com/totallyskeletal">Skeletal System</a> “Long Exposure”</p>http://and-er-ah-um.com/post/359969436http://and-er-ah-um.com/post/359969436Fri, 29 Jan 2010 10:50:00 -0800<embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://and-er-ah-um.com/swf/audio_player.swf?audio_file=http://www.tumblr.com/audio_file/355090474/tumblr_kwvpc5d7h81qz4gl2&color=FFFFFF" height="27" width="207" quality="best"></embed><br/><br/><p>A quick little improvisation using nanoloop 2.3, a Kaoss Pad and Ableton.
