about
Over a decade ago, long before he knew how to use a computer properly, he was making music on a trusty Tascam Portastudio. Using only a Roland Alpha Juno-1 and a Yamaha DX-7 he started making music on that little 4-track and looking back on it now, the nostalgia of it all is very strong. Being strongly influenced by Aphex Twin and The Future Sound of London, he released my first album 'The Beauty of Strangness' through Noise Factory Records. Try listening to 'ISDN' or 'Lifeforms' by The Future Sound of London and then 'The Beauty of Strangeness' and I think you'll see what he was trying to develop with his music at the time. A few years later he started to learn of what his fellow labelmates were doing, most importantly Beef Terminal and KC Accidental. Finding other influences like Labradford, Godspeed You Black Emperor, Do Make Say Think, Aerial M and many others, he released his sophmore album, 'Hands and Knees Music'. For this album he used the many talents of my brother Adam Patrick Boot... he laid down a few guitar tracks on a number of songs and made the album itself morph into something new and different; something that he liked and would continue to use in future recordings. After 'Hands and Knees Music' was completed he recorded a number of other songs. He released them in three parts and called them 'Night', 'Dawn' and 'Day'. So here he is, right now... peeling along.
