I keep getting "R" and "9" confused

About Me


diy AND die
Upcoming:
-Yatagarasu full length cd- 9 tracks of blasty 8-bit damage freak out. Three color silkscreened packaging, available on tour!
-Yata ep - 5 tracks made using custom programmed NES cartridges. Available on tourrrrAlso check out Yatagarasu's secondary form, HEXCRUSHER for some highly tracker-centric chip blitz.
Available Relesases:
- Yata s/t - $5 (message me to buy)
This cdr has 8 NES/blastcore tracks recorded over the last year. Decent!
- Hexcrusher s/t - $5.50 (go to Hexcrusher page to buy)
7 tracks of anthemic, pulverizing para-military VG Music/pop with heavy noisecore undercurrents.
- Yata/Carpet Violence split cdr (buy from Stickfigure distro )
3-5 copies left and then these limited cdrs are history. Put the nail in the coffin of this hectic time in Yata's and Carpets' lives. Yata does 11 tracks of electroshock slash-up in 4.5 minutes. Carpets do 7 slightly longer tracks of noisey, damaged hardcore. A cult cdr of impossible changes, terrified shrieks, inadvisable distortion and dark irony.

next step

Updates: I'm building a new synth, this time made out of my old Commodore 128 sound chip. It will probably be added to the yata lineup for some nice acid bass and portamento slizides. I'm finishing ...

New drum machine

I took apart my old keyboard, removing the keys and speakers. Now it is a compact midi drum machine that I'm going to use at shows. I think this is a perfect fusion -the device that helped me survive ...

Crackers and snacks

I can't sleep right now, it is about 4:30. John and I got some coffee (mostly "I") at around 9:00. Usually I handle coffee much better than this. What's the matter with me? How is Yatagarasu supposed ...

overstepped boundaries

As I've gotten older I've never managed to armor my thin skin. It really bothers me when people don't take me seriously, or seem to think I'm dishonest, even on the internet. Even on myspace, which is...
