How do you get bandcamp to embed? i thought it would auto embed

There is a track at around 13-15 mins. a skittery static hat and a repeat bass phrase. anyone know the track id? love it

Aye the bandcamp thing is a bit of a pain in the arse. You do:

The size= at the end can be 'small' 'medium' or 'large' and it needs the / at the end too

The track is 'Shadow', it's an unfinished track which only really exists in piece form of various loops but worked perfectly to segue between Iso's Dream and the next ambienty track (au). We ended up coming back to it time and time again during rehearsals - originally having it go on for about 15 minutes !

Really wish I'd been able to go to this. Suppose this recording will have to suffice!

Where albumnumber is found by if you click the embed button on Bandcamp and it gives you a long URL

i was going to say you have to finish it but maybe it is best in this form. I remember when i first heard a holden track (circle in a circle | or something) in a fourtet mix. I needed to find it and when I did it was good but fourtet had mixed it with something else and it was never quite as good. I also quite like the idea that it only exists here and in different forms in live sets forever evolving and never finding a finished state.

so what is the cubus live setup?

Two lappys running Ableton synced (well kinda, the BPM seems to drift) via Midi over LAN, with me on the Push.

First time we've ever performed that way - about half way though I got completely overwhelmed and was looking blankly at the Push thinking 'what the hell is this weird box with lights ?!' )

yeah I think i can hear that blank stare

new record on the way anytime soon?

It'll probably be released when they invent the 30 hour day !

(but seriously, I'd love to put something out but I'm real busy at the moment with work)

don't you put the music on homes under the hammer? can't be that busy!

Pretty sure you've mixed me up with someone else - wish I made music (even just for TV) for a living!

*respect reset*

i havent had a chance to listen to the whole thing but i love the way you are using noise rhythmically in bits of this, creating almost hihat patterns out of it

Wish I'd done a bit more of that - was played in live using a messy Max patch, but kept bottling it and played safe

at the next gig?
