Gun Outro (extract)
I'm currently working on a cover version of a country song I like- I'll post it when it's finished- and these are some of the elements I'm adding to it.
It's a drum machine beat recorded in 1985, cut up 2 days ago; another drum machine track recorded in 2005, cut up in 2006 and very carelessly transfered yesterday; and a recording of Brent Cross Tube Station made last Summer.

Late Night Long Distance
Found this one in a folder that has been transferred from drive to drive for the last 9 years. I wasn't sure about it back then, probably because it has my own voice on it, but now I like it.

5 chords, a scratched CD, a phazey loop that's the wrong length in places, a couple of whacks on the bhodran and some rain. Ta-da!

GENEVA2
Added this track today- it's the combination of a field recording and an experiment with automation glitches in Logic 9.
By the way, I realise that my output hasn't been as vast as I expected in early 2009. This is because my live engineering schedule got very hectic and I hardly saw home/studio at all this year.. But I've got a couple of months off now (Jan/Feb) so am planning to get caught up on a lot of loose ends. I'll keep you posted.

DESTROYER
Added a new NO STEP track today- It's meant to be a combination Cock Rock / Electroclash tune, but I think the CR got the upper hand.. I hope you like it!
NO STEP is me and MC SOOM T from Glasgow. We've got an EP coming out in March- check http://www.myspace.co/nostepproject for details. I'm working on a LOAD of other NO STEP tunes just now- maybe enough for 2 albums even..
More soon!

New toons!
As promised, I have uploaded another recent snippet from LORDHAGOS HQ.
I've been working with Mr Pete Burns for over 20 years now, and for the last 5 of those 20 we've been going under the name Fuselage. Pete came down here a few weeks ago and we got a LOAD of new tracks started :)
System is the closest we came to finishing anything- and we may well rework it out of all recognition later- but I quite like it just the way it is now.
It's a Cave-man pop song..
MORE COMING VERY SOON

There are going to be a few changes around here!
This Myspace has been up for a while, and it doesn't look like I'm going to get Selected Offcuts 2 finished anytime soon, so I've decided I'm going to start uploading snippets of the 'other' stuff that goes on here (with the consent of collaborators obviously).
First up is a tune I re-worked for Ken Rose recently called Sunshine Dust. We haven't got a name for the project yet (Milk Milk?), but plan to do some more tracks soon..
THE OLD SPIEL
I am LORD HAGOS.
Hello.
I've been making experimental electronic music since around 1980 when I discovered how to dub from one cassette machine to another.
Since then I've programmed, mixed and produced albums, singles and remixes for various bands but never had a release of my own.
I always regarded the tracks I made at home as unfinished sketches and experiments, which I used parts of- or techniques developed in- for other more "bona fide" releases.
It's only very recently that I've felt that I want some of these tracks to be heard. As a result "Selected Offcuts"- an 11 track compilation- is now available on Rubbish Records.
I think these tracks take most of their influence from '70s ambient music and '90s electronic music- the latter coming from the point of view of an outsider to the scene..
I hope you enjoy them.
