It always leaves me desperate....

Okay, so I'm a day late on this post. The truth is I actually had this song ready yesterday, but I completely forgot that it was Thursday. That's life without a 9-5, all the days just kind of blur together like the previous night after a serious bender... that description seems more apt then it probably should.

Anyway, I've been spending most of my time trying to get ready for the Son of Rust show with Assemblage 23, which means that most of the music work I've been doing centers around making a spicy live show. Last time I rehearsed with Jason while we were playing my Violator mix he gave me this look like "ummmmm....". You see, I had mentioned to him that I had "hardened up" the mixes a bit to make the live songs a little more dance-able. I got the impression that he still thought Violator sounded.. well... a little gay.

I decided to rectify the matter by putting together this mix, which combines all three of my "new tech" elements (vocoding, side-chain, and my new soft-synth the ReFX "Nexus"). It's along the same lines as the Highest Cost VF Mix in the fact that it's meant to stomp you into submission. Let me know if I succeeded. :P

This one isn't for download. Come to the show on the 22nd if you want to hear it in all it's live glory. :P
