Alien Overmind
Shrine of Infinity
SAFG, 2008
Everything has a start. Big bangs, planet life, declared wars, etc. What happened before each that caused such an event, who knows. But one thing’s for sure, is that there comes a time when one, such as myself, feels influenced by the surrounding environment and feels a pulse to put everything in a better, more enjoyable perspective, even if it channels the negative. When it comes down to it, I really just wanted to start doing music because my friends in both personal and artistic ways have inspired me to create something of my own, and although this is badly recorded and over the place, I’m glad to at least start and I’ll like to get back and continue where I left off: floating in a dark crystallized chasm in space, hoping to channel in with the electronic rift again.
Things I’ve heard about SOI:
from Jacob: “cold robot space funk,” Sean: “have you been listening to a lot of Kites lately?,” my cousin: “a raw and kinetic visual path of fuzzy bass lines and hip shaking beats” and “do you know how to record?”
