we’ve got (re)issues

so we’ve got some digital reissues of scientific american work available for sale.

first up is “saints of infinity / simulated d.i.y.”. this was originally a 4 12″ series, that was then compiled onto a double cd. both were released on slabco records and are long out of print. if you like bang for your buck than this is for you…almost 2 hours of music for $10. not bad.

on itunes: sientific american - saints of infinity / simulated d.i.y.

next up is the scientific american side of the sa/plastiq phantom split 12″ from a couple years ago. two tracks with two excellent remixes, including the r.hudson remix of ffbe. it is awesome.

on itunes: scientific american - tubes

they’re be available at most other digital stores as well. search at your personal favorite and buy from them!

speech! speech! speech!

i’ve been invited to speak upon the virtues of ableton live. i know the words “user group” don’t exactly scream “good time” to most, but to be honest i’m looking forward to this more than most live shows. i’ll be including a mini-performance along with the knowledge kicking. here’re the deets:
