I actually tried to do something Death Metal-ish, but it wasn't all that
successful... I think grindcore would have been the easiest genre to pull
off, in retrospect, but I'm not sure it would have been artistically
satisfying (which doesn't rule it out as a future project ;-)

Not much chance of remixes since the last track I recorded (Lethbridge
Holocaust) had a glitch in it that resulted (I presume) in DAC522
accessing random memory addresses, which in turn resulted in the floppy
containing all the music, as well as the CF card that the backups were on
being corrupted beyond repair. In a way I'm glad, though... the whole
recording process was so "arbitrary" that I really had no idea how a track
would sound until it was finished; it wouldn't be as enjoyable to go back
and attempt to make "improvements".

Thanks!
