(e.g U.F.Os) is The fourth track in my ongoing 'Variants' album project.
This song started off around a riff I have had in my head for what seemed like a decade. It's something I just couldn't do anything with so I'm overjoyed I created something from its influence. The track actually started off a little more band-like in the studio and featured my wife on vocals.

Brilliant and captivating audio documentary & soundtrack concept album. Centred around unexplained X-File-like activity that apparently went on in Wales, in 1977. A must listen! MrSteJ
Endling knocks it out of the park with his second album which manages to be poignant yet uplifting throughout its nautical concept. I can’t imagine many topping this in 2021. MrSteJ
23 tracks of pure electronic experimental pop. With hints of Boards of Canada and Crystals Castles, there’s something for everyone in this conceptual exploration of identity. MrSteJ
Cinematically moody, substantial, and intensely mature soundscapes. Wired to Follow write music that is very supportive of your visual imagination, and deftly creates an atmosphere rich in fabulous detail and possibility. Michael Reilly
A mysterious and highly intriguing release that blends human perception and feeling with the digital nature of the machine. Electronic noise introduces the three-part title track in a great dynamic build-up that rewards impressively. Michael Reilly
