LIVE : Binster Live in Northampton 2011 Video

For those of you who weren't at it, my gig late last year at the Northampton Labour Club went really well. I had a great deal of fun, and it seems the audience weren't disappointed either.

Here's the video, which amounts to one boring man on stage not moving around much apart from sitting down half way through. Also, coloured lighting. Still, it captures the atmosphere quite well.



Bigs up due to TheLastSamu for filming the gig, and to Tom Rose for recording the audio of the gig.

MUSIC : _ensnare_ and .mpegasus : Binary Opposition

This is the exciting collaboration I alluded to a while back...




Binary Opposition Album Preview by Binster


It's a chiptune album by Paul "nervous_testpilot" Taylor (as _ensnare_) and myself (as .mpegasus). There's 4 tracks by Paul, 4 by me and one track which is a proper, both at the same computer collaboration.

Get on it, chiptune fans! And Merry Christmas!

Oh, also the album is now featuring in AudioSurf Radio!

MUSIC : Wild Arms: ARMed and DANGerous Remix Project

Welp, it's been a while since my last game remix. Here's a new one. I've contributed to the OCRemix Wild Arms remix project, ARMed and DANGerous.





My remix is featured in this trailer (Utter madness! It's only a wonky little tune, what's it doing up there?) at 2:07. It's a remix of the track False Wedding At Sea, and I've given it the cheeky title of "I Now Pronounce You Incorrectly".

Check out the project's website here.

GENERAL : Movember

I grew a moustache for Movember. I took a photo of it everyday. Then I turned it into an animated gif. The results are included below in the interest of providing mirth.

MUSIC : Album and EP special price

In a case of serendipity, on this the blackest of Fridays, I have decided to celebrate my impending FIRST GIG EVER (which is tomorrow in Northampton, for those of you who have forgotten) by lowering the prices of my Album and EP on Bandcamp.

So!

Abandoned Special Edition (the album featuring a remix by nervous_testpilot of Frozen Synapse fame) is £2!

And Part Man Part Machine (the EP featuring chart smashlette "So Angry") is £2!

They'll return to their regular prices of £3.50 for the album and £3 for the EP in a couple of days, so get snaffling :)

LIVE : Gig in Northampton, UK on the 26th November

Ooh crumbs, chief.

I'm playing a live gig. I've never done this before, so it'll be interesting. And possibly disastrous.

I'm supporting the ace gothic rock band The Agonal Trace and will be playing stuff from Abandoned, the Part Man Part Machine EP, and the upcoming Broken Lighthouse Initiative EP so that'll be nice.

The time? Saturday 26th November. The place? The Labour Club, Charles St, Northampton. £2 on the door.

Thank you

Hello everyone!

Thought I'd just pop up a thank you to everyone who's listened to, bought and or shared links to my album and new EP.

I shall reward your support with new music. On that note, there are interesting things afoot. Hopefully I will have a new EP completed before the end of the year (although I am quite slow at finishing things - I'll just try harder than usual).

On top of that, I hope to embark on an exciting collaborative project with a fellow electronic monster. More news on that when things start happening.

And on top of on top of that that, there should be a little bit of A Scholar And A Phyisican Presents magic happening sometime soon. For those not in the know, these are albums organised by Oli (A Scholar) and Steve (A Physician) and involve loads of indie music types making music for a themed compilation. The last one was in 2004, so a new one is long overdue.

Whew! Oh, also I have a new game remix in the can. It's for a remix project, so more on that when it's being released.

Cheers all, and thanks again for support!
