(What day is it? Wednesday 20 September 2017. I forgot to do a track again. And yeah here I am a night later doing it now. I don't even remember what happened yesterday, um. It was college, that was alright, and did music for film stuff. Now that was neat I liked that. And uh, yeah... [indecipherable])
(Thursday 22 September 2017. Truth is yesterday did have one particularly interesting attribute, namely that I went to bed at 9:15pm, sort of like what normal people do, though I still woke up at 12pm somehow so shit. Before I went to bed, my friend Nic was getting hooked on Massacre's Killing Time, which I've still not heard its entirety despite the fact its Fred Frith and early Bill Laswell on the same album, so I must get onto that at some point.)
(Meanwhile today, while some guy was there to tell that the boiler would need replacing, I was there playing AnCo's underrated sensory overload by the name of Centipede Hz. Soon after that I played XTC's gorgeous Nonsuch. Not my favourite album by them but one of them. A record I can't sing my praises enough for. There's those lyrics in 'Humble Daisy': 'I'll sing about you if nobody else will'.)
(And on the right day I might even draw it equal with Then She Appeared and Colin's War Dance and Bungalow.)

Recorded in January 2018, this started off as an attempt to do a Romo-style track (more info on that on track 2) but what I started off with reminded me more of maybe electro house or LCD Soundsystem or something. The vocals are from two tracks on my incomplete 'spoken diary' thing from September 2017. I used them because at the time I had no actual lyrics to spare, but I quite liked it this way so I never replaced them.
