Plasticene is a love song. An obsessive lovesong, from the kind of lover that someone could really get the creeps from. But me means well.
Podcast: “Leave Me, I’ll get by”
Leave Me I’ll Get By is a song written in 1990 and I finally got enough skills together as Minnellium to record it in 2004. Now there’s a learning curve for you.
Podcast: “More than you ask for” 19 years on
“More than you ask for” was written by me in 1986, and recorded by the Doofers in December 1987 (see separate article).

I still like it, and had a modern re-take on it, which I thought I’d share with you.
Podcast: “Feature”
My first podcast… a tune from the past.
Feature is quite a heavy instrumental, with a hefty chorus. Hammond organ and some organic drums.

New track: Underflow
A bit of soundtrack work I’ve done for my old school friend Hamish. I like this piece – doing things to a spec (albeit a not very tight one) sometimes makes you do things differently than you may. It’s not as indulgent as I’m used to and that in itself is good discipline.

Podcast: Scientific American
Have a listen to my latest track – a bit of irony – mixing a lovely souly bassline and drum sound with some vocoder. Enjoyed making it… inspiration came from this (!).
