about

Back in 2018 i put together a project that was to be the last release on Soundman Chronicles - Altered Tapes - each side of the tape was produced and often improvised as a live jam by myself and pieced together in Ableton. Today on bandcamp day, for the first time ever I present all the tracks and live jams as single tracks - I produced the project over a 3 month period, a particularly rough 3 month period where i was dealing with severe depression, anxiety and addiction, this crept into the music which is why this project swings between moods rapidly and is largely dark in content - that said it was one of the most enjoyable and creatively liberating things i've worked on, it varies from Techno to Electro, to Jungle to Hip Hop to Ambient Soundscapes and everything inbetween - each track leads into eachother and should be listened to in order - big up to Dwayne 'DJ Parris' Parris for suggesting I do this everytime.

We pressed 50 cassettes and they sold incredibly fast - you can still find them for an ok price on discogs if you want to hear the mixes how they're supposed to be heard: www.discogs.com/Etch-Altered-Roads-Tape-Vol1-/release/11721843

Also on this bandcamp release for the first time ever I'll be releasing the Z Side which are the tracks also made in that period that didn't fit into the final project, the outtakes.

These tracks mean a hell of alot personally, i saw them as personal therapy for the most part; a lot of them are also dedicated to friends and people around me, some who aren't with us anymore. I was contemplating putting it up for pay what you want, but yknow... it's 54 tracks and i like to think if you're a fan of my music or a project such as this £5 is not alot to pay (or feel free to pay even more if you like there is an option hahahaha, i will be very happy)

ENJOY!!!

PS - Watchout for my forthcoming releases on VIVID, Dr Banana, SEAGRAVE, ec2a, Sneaker Social Club & Ilian Tape = we are in hard times right now with COVID and the underground music scene is getting trampled on, dont let this happen - cop dat shit!

All the tracks are great but Stepper is the standout for me! pounding syncopated kicks, rolling handdrums and playful sample work, dancefloor destroyer. Jack G.
