Single title? The First Dream
What's the song about? It's an IDM dream to keep you company at 3 in the morning.
How long did it take to write/record? Probs a week or so. The writing and recording are one singular process, so it's a pretty quick turnaround. 
Is this track from a forthcoming release/existing release? The First Dream is lifted from upcoming album Neurotica, due as soon as I can pull together some money to master it. 
What was inspiring you during the song's writing and recording? Just the infinite possibilities of sound. I throw a million accidents at the wall and carve a song out of it - The process makes its own inspiration. 
We'll like this song if we like... Autechre, Aphex Twin, Boards of Canada
Do you play it differently live? Yeah, I've added a couple layers for the live show to make it more fun in the moment. 
When and where is your launch/next gig? Launching at The Odd Fellow Fremantle Saturday Feb 11 with guests Salary and Lana.
