The (recent) Past

This post to
be followed within the near future by post 'The
Future', announcing the forthcoming releases from
Aeriae.
Following is a non-ordered sampling of Aeriae action I've been involved in since I released Hold R1 late in 2007:
- I remixed Catcall's 'August'
- I remixed Delta Goodrem's 'Believe Again'. I love this remix and I perform it at every live show
- I saw Moldover's video on Controllerism, which inspired me to believe I could do an incarnation of Aeriae live
- I spent five months building a live rig in hardware and software engineering from the ground up
- I began to participate in Clan Analogue
- I played several shows
- I produced a Severed Heads cover, which should see the light of day on a Clan release in the near future
- I produced a track for the soundtrack of videogame 'Netrikulator' which wasn't used in the end. This track, 'Passage 9', is particularly game-oriented, and I definitely hope to get it into a videogame at some point
- I remixed Chaingang, my favourite Sydney rock band
- I remixed Damn Arms for a competition, but in retrospect I'm glad this track wasn't released, even if not winning meant not winning $8000 of software and hardware. What was weird was that Damn Arms split up just after the competition was announced
- I had the most crippling bout of RSI in my right hand and arm that I've experienced in life (which is to say out of about three major episodes). Able to do very little for months, I tried to maintain sanity by watching Monkey and classic Dr Who DVDs, and worked with dreadful slowness at the computer on Aeriae material, using my left hand only
- I was fast enough to nab one of the initial steel embossed alternate editions of Autechre's 'Quaristice' when it came out
