Sunday Post



I'm in no doubt that 2015 has been a year of "firsts" for me creatively. In it, I began my sound recycling side-project 'The Audio Bin', explored aleatory in music with my 'MUSIC BY CHANCE' tracks, and dabbled in synesthesia painting. Although, the one thing that has had the most impacted me this year has been collaborating. 

The act of creating something with someone a few thousand miles away is very exciting to me. It makes the world seem a little cosier, and I'm very grateful for it, and the many new friends that I have gained through doing it. 

With that in mind, I thought it would only be right to collect all of the music that I have in some way been associated throughout 2015, and cram it all into one big playlist. Everything from my solo stuff, to the tracks produced by others via my 'Wou-Wou Open Collab' included. And when better to release it than New Year's Eve... gives anything that might sneak in over the next few days a chance, if nothing else. 











But that's not all, because New Year's Day will see the release of my first LP, 'Memory of Origin'. It's a spacey, experimental guitar album which I recorded to compliment Lizzie Badger's artwork during her Open Studio exhibition. It'll be downloadable in it's entirety from Bandcamp, with the abridged EP version available, for free, from SoundCloud. 

Well that's it, my last blogpost for 2015. I'd like to thank everyone who has supported me during the year and I'll see you in 2016! 

Happy thoughts,

I'm very pleased to announce that 'Little One' (the third track to be released under my 'Wou-Wou Open Collab' offshoot) will be uploaded tomorrow, complete with stems for all you remixers and audio rejiggers out there.

The track itself has more in common with my 'Make It Pretty' track from 2014 than anything that I've done recently. A short and simple guitar ditty which never really got past the demo stage.



All being well, "Little One" won't the only track that I put out before the year is though. With an experimental album done and ready for release, the sixth 'Audio Bin' track nearly in the bag, and a remix of New Biboujin's 'Son of Alexie' also on the cards, it seems that December will be a little more musical than I'm used to lately. 

More doodles and paintings on their way too. I know that I kinda neglect my arty things on here, but I'm planning to change that in the new year. But for now...

After a few minor setbacks, I'm pleased to announce that a new 'Audio Bin' track, 'A Seance for the Sceptic', will be available to stream over on SoundCloud from tomorrow. This time round it features audio kindly donated by crankyfox, joerxworx, Man On A Grill, Russell Sinfield and Storm the Palace, with artwork by Lizzie Badger. 



And while I'm still on the subject, 'The Audio Bin' will be a year old in February. I know, it's a while off yet, but I've been busy arranging a few wee surprises for this most modest of celebrations. Including guest remixes, bonus tracks, artwork and videos. How much of this will actually come to pass remains to be seen, but whatever happens all 'Audio Bin' tracks (complete with remixes) will be released as a downloadable album on both bandcamp and SoundCloud during the short month of Feb.

My other news is that I've decided to call it quits on my 'Sound Collage' project, with the few submissions I received going into the 'Audio Bin'. That said, I'm not off the idea, and they'll be many other things to join in with early next year.

I know, I've been pretty quiet recently. But unlike my last mini hiatus, it's mainly due to the influx of collaborative projects that I'm juggling. Everything from remixes to animations... it's all go! I'm also working hard to get my zines off of the ground. So simply put, things will be a little sparse 'till more things are ticked off my to-list.

That said, I am aiming to put-out my fifth 'Audio Bin' track later this month, as-well-as my second 'Wou-Wou Open Collab' track, 'Out///In', which I'll be releasing tomorrow. 



I hope to be back properly in the new year, but 'till then I will be keeping my hand in a few things, including my weekly playlist and my 'Open Collab' sideline.

Happy thoughts,

It's been a busy few weeks here at Wou HQ, with offers and requests coming in left, right and centre. I'm not complaining though, far from it, I love to be busy. Especially when that busyness involves working with such wonderfully talented people. People like Ang Kerfoot...

I've wanted to work with Ang on something from the get go. Her cool, soulful voice and fearless, genre-blurring music is an inspiration. Needless to say, when I approached Ang with the demo of 'Strung', I had no idea what would come from it. All I knew was her voice was in my head when I listened to it so I just had to ask.



Of course, Ang is a total pro, and from my rough demo crafted a song way above my exceptions.

'Strung' will be released in it's entirety tomorrow. But, if you want to sample a taste, Ang released this beta version over the weekend... so dig in!



But that's not all, as the first two tracks to come from my new 'Open Collab' page were released this week...



... along with this gorgeous remix New Biboujin did of my track with, Anne_Lee.



Please be sure to check out all the aforementioned if you're not already aquatinted with them. And while you're at it, check out my 'Open Collab' page and 'Sound Collage' project if you haven't. Only a few weeks left to join in with the latter... just saying.

Happy thoughts,
