RELEASES AND IDEAS AND SPLITS? AND LABELS AND ALBUMS

I've been doing this Starr party project since last July....there have been long periods of nothing, and short periods of lots and lots of stuff. Since last July, I've put out two splits and four albums, none of which have been physically released as of yet. These include:

- My first release, which was a netsplit with Lienullnoyz from the UK. I've been listening to and loving with Richard Wilmer has done and is doing musically forever, and it was sweet do a split with him under this moniker. Two tracks each, one long and one short.

- A split with Redsk, which was supposed to be released on tapes and CDRs, but which never actually got released because Redsk shut down his TRASHFUCK label before he got to it. Unfortunate. Still, I'm really stoked to have done even a hypothetical split with him. One 14:05 track each.

- "Men as Friends 1 & 2". Two songs about exactly what the title says. I sent this to Placenta in the hopes that they would put it out, and months later they told me that they never got it, so I sent it to them again. We'll see what happens.

- "The Divers and the Men at Sea". Five unrelated tracks. Songs about nothing. Released on the aReW netlabel, actually got listened to by a few people. Too sweet!

- "The Losers of The Arms Race Proclaim". Four unrelated tracks. Two three or four minute ones and two longer ones. Hoping to have this released on aReW as well.

- "It Was Found Underneath". One handed improvisations with Electroplankton and a monotron. Surprisingly some of the best stuff i've come up with....hmm. Looking for someone to put this out. We will see.

All of this having been put out there (atleast on my bandcamp), I'm still writing lots of new material, and trying to focus more on what I'm doing. I feel like i'm in a worse state than I was, in a lot of ways, and so I want that to be reflected. The previously mentioned releases aside, I have two things planned for the future as of now:

- A split tape(s) with Methlab Explosion. Fucking amazing harsh noise guy. The release will consist of two C20 cassettes packaged in double jewel cases (sweet!). First tape is a regular split, one ten minute track each, and second tape is remixes by each other of each other. Being put out (really!) on Aught Void and Halloween Quest. Too fucking stoked for this one.

- A C122 tape (really.) entitled "sexxxless//noFUCKINGsexxx". Harsh noise wall and long samples, going to sound substantially different from what I've released up until now. No more fucking electroplankton soft keys and no more casio keyboards. We'll see if it works out, maybe it will suck. I hope not. Edition of like 10 or 15 tapes, self released.

All of this will happen and it will all be sweet. I am excited and motivated. Let's fucking see what happens!
