About Me

Crude is Matt Middleton(see myspace page) a recording artist based in the univeristy town of Dunedin, New Zealand. Established 1994. Releases on Flying Nun, Ecstatic Yod. Extensive back-catalogue of works spanning the worlds of lo-fidelity, noise and it's various associations, 'electro' of a low-tech and low-yield nature, , ambient - whether dark or merely 'darkened' , perhaps even ' blackened', glitch and all it's clicks and cuts and slips and slides,pock marks and pops, tinny,boyish bedroom-engineered kiwi rock, uncouth and artless punk,crude collage, whatever's voguish and smells bad i suppose, whatever softwares i can muster, whatever works...whatever interests the artist......,,,,...Recordings now available thru the web-site www.crude.co.nz. (link on the left) They were nullified and weakened by their own very psychic attack. I am no snob. Dignity online. You can lay low, working man. I distribute me molecules. How thanked the restaurant staff, and gave them the night off. A risk taker, an adventurer, an iNnovator. Competitive and cunning. Inheritance. "I'm not going to lie to you, we are stinking rich and we want to help you out. We know what we like and we'll support you 100%." "These benefactors will have to prove they are trustworthy." We know how it is, you are trying the best you can with the resources available to you." "Here's just a sample...take it..we can set up an account.Come back to our property in Central Otago and we can talk on it further. For now, we must continue eating. Come, sit back down." "There will be no restrictions on your movements, Starky." "You'll be on fire, you'll be flying. The only drawback will be the limitations of your mind, and the shackled body. Here, let me help you." How gestured toward a waiter. "Take the night off." "But, sir..." "Take the night off. You are not required here." The righteous, the real of the land. Poison idea: the lifestyle lazing and criminal. Vexing. Unatural? Evil? Bitten off more than i can chew? And You? Out of yer league? Taunt. Tort.
