An homage to Philip Glass (the name of the track is a pun) and his Koyaanisqatsi-period, Minimalist, repetitive sequences. I've since decided that they are pretty much ripped-off from Bernard Herrmann's genius Vertigo score, but hey, they still rock.
progressive experimental guitar based rock

Mainly guitar-based rock. Perhaps some more experimental instrumentation depending on whether it benefits the song or not.
This is an offshoot of various other musical projects and includes songs with a more personal level of content. The music here was recorded in varying circumstances and over quite a long period of time.

Story behind the song
Programmed on a Commodore 64 (!) - my brother, Dave, and I worked for hours in my spare room to create this. I recorded it by connecting the Commodore to my amplifer rig and using a microphone to capture the room sound with a DI to retain the highest frequencies. There are timing errors (missed half beats and such) caused by the Commodore's primitive processing capabilities, but I decided to leave the track unaltered as it has a weird charm. It also used every bit of the available memory (hence the abrupt ending).
