The first release to be listened to is "X7". The concept starts to reveal itself so we have a CDR in a cardboard cover, glued/copied tracklist, "X" with a number and titles that are connected, but only Steve knows what the connection is between title, track, sounds, etc. but ... Steve won't tell.
In Vital 1334 I wrote 'excellent release for summer evenings sitting on the porch drinking some beers with friends' and what can you expect while sitting on the porch, staring over the pond or into the woods? "A Dragonfly", "A Chipmunk", "An Owl", "A Squirrel", or "A Bird" - Five tracks with a total playing time of a little over 30 minutes. Part drone-based, part it sounds like heavily processed field recordings, a bit of harsh noise, yet the whole seems soothing in a strange way.

My favourite track is "A Chipmunk", and in all honesty, I think Steve succeeded in making me curious about "X8". No idea if it's been recorded yet, but I will be getting it and trying to see if I can slowly get into his thinking, finding out what 'the connection' is. Or maybe finally admit that there isn't any...
