New Outputmessage track on myspace

I've posted a new Outputmessage track on myspace.  It's called "Lungs" and it's from the upcoming Resurface EP set to come out on Melodic records this year.

I know that I've mentioned that I've been working on new Outputmessage material where I'm doing vocals, but the songs on this EP are instrumental,  made right after Nebulae was released.  Nonetheless, I'm really into the stuff on this EP.  It's like the tracks you heard on Nebulae, but taken up a notch.

Anyway, check the track out:

Evan Scott (of Race Car Productions) is already working on some artwork for the New Models EP.

locals+freaks vol. III

An old Outputmessage live set has been posted on beatbots.com as a part of the locals+freaks podcast.  It was performed March 2005 in Lansing, MI in the studio of my friend Patrick's (part of the  bmore/electro" crew) radio show.  You'll hear a lot of tracks from Nebulae before it was Nebulae and also some material that has yet to be released.

Outputmessage interviewed on Autechre blog

If you happen to speak French you should check out the of me for the Autechre blog run by WARP France.  It's part of a series of interviews of IDM/electronic artists which ask for their thoughts on Autechre and how they've been influenced by their music.  Seeing as how Autechre is one of my all-time favorite artists I was more than happy to oblige.

New Models EP in the works...

Mark Herbkersman and I have been sitting on this project called New Models for some time now and are currently finalizing an EP for Race Car to come out later this year. We make something close to what the Postal Service would sound like if they had some more testosterone.  You can check out a demo on our myspace page, but the real thing will be coming soon.  Keep a look out for more details.
