new handsette release (29.06.2009)
Yes indeed ladies and gentlemen. After the success of last year's Shatnereffekt One, Handsette Recordings is back with a 4-track various artists 12". Featuring stunning work from Kritical Audio, Miles Tilmann, C. Mantle and Unity Gain Temple. Check out the preview mp3 below.

We have rejected hundreds of contenders and boiled down to a thick gravy-like substance to ensure only the finest tracks were released on this record. In these final dying days of vinyl there is simply no point pressing boring sludge onto plastic - be assured these are superb examples of electronic music!

The 12" is a limited run of 300 copies and will be available from Rub-A-Dub, and direct from Handsette. More details of where to buy and digital release info (mp3 and lossless) will be posted here soon. Hold tight!

computers 2009 remaster (02.06.2009)
On realising there was only a shoddy 128k mp3 of this track in existence, I dug out the ancient minidisc marked 'STUFF 2003' and set about rerecording and tarting it up to make a better sounding version using some of them there fancy new mastering plugins.

There were also some unused extra synth parts lurking on the disc I must've forgotten about which have also been added. Enjoy!

Click here for a more detailed (and slightly pretentious) description of the idea behind the track.

make your own cheapo wallpaper (05.02.2009)

I've recently discovered this handy little tool called The RasterBator by Matias Ärje, which allows you to import any image, have it halftoned and then spewed out into a multi-page PDF file for printing.

In short; it's a cheap and easy way to make huge posters with a domestic A4 printer and a bit of scissor-effort. Nice.

Here's one I made earlier:
