Avaruusromua 20 vuotta

Avaruusromun 20-vuotisjuhlan kunniaksi 28 suomalaista musiikintekijää lähetti aiemmin julkaisematonta musiikkiaan, kuunneltavaksi ja ladattavaksi. Musiikki on tarjolla 30 vuorokautta Avaruusromun 20-vuotispäivästä lähtien eli 4.7. asti. Alla tekijät aakkosjärjestyksessä, klikkaa, kuuntele, lataa, lue ja katso! Tätä musiikkia et saa muualta.

Selected Works 2003—2006 presents the highlights, and perhaps the deepest depths, of various Kaaos In Eccentris sessions from the active period of 2003—2006.

Next up in my “free download campaign” is NeitherSphere ep. It’s my latest release and something I’m personally a lot more fond of than most older material (some of which we’ll return to later on). This ep used to be available for free in a lower bitrate, but now it’s all 320k q1 MP3.

Klick, download, enjoy.

NeitherSphere is related to the album Half Born in Half Light, and the “album version” included in this package is from that album. The 7″ shoplifters mix is somewhat similar to the live version played on the recent concerts. Karni Mata Dub, remixed by Karni Mata (obviously), approaches the original from a totally unexpected angle and, well, kicks ass in my not so humble opinion.

On a related note, check out also the Rathood ep by Karni Mata, also available for free download!

I decided to begin uploading some stuff from the past for free download. First up is a mini-album from 2005, To give light to that which is without.

This release was inspired by and conceived in the post-Living Room limbo, a temporary state of darkness in the middle of the brightest summer. Tracks 1 and 3 were recorded in live performances during Spring 2005. Track 2 constructed from location recordings made in Spring & Summer 2005. Originally released on CDR as a limited edition of 93 copies, hand-numbered, in hand-painted sleeve.

Klick, download, enjoy.

More free downloads will appear here whenever I have the time for it, something every week if possible… Keep an eye on the site if you’re interested and feel free to spread the word & the musick.
