Something like that.

Let's go newest to oldest:

Sthaga

You know what I like? The music of 1997. Big Beat. Some of my favorite albums were released that year. The Prodigy's Fat of the Land, The Crystal Method's Vegas, The Chemical Brothers' Dig Your Own Hole.

Well, this new track is inspired by all that sort of stuff. Big Beat mixed with Indian sounds and themes.

Riders of Vengeance

Cowboys. Outlaws. Bandits. Gunslingers. Bounty Hunters. Rustlers. You know what I'm talking about. The Frontier. The Wild West. The Buttery Convocation. Okay, maybe not that last one.

Anyway, I like Westerns. I like Spaghetti Westerns. I like the iconic imagery evocative of the lawless western frontier. The Western setting has always been one I've enjoyed in film and music. The sound of the west is magical. "Riders of Vengeance" is my latest foray into that sound space.

Lies the Trapper

In wait lies the trapper. Patient. Focused. Animal. A little metal ditty in the vein of some of my favorite weirdo bands, namely Mr.Bungle and Dog Fashion Disco. I like that sort of stuff, and I have occasionally pulled inspiration from that genre in the past, but I've never really done a whole track in that style.

Well, here you go. Metal + trumpets, saxophones, cuicas, bossa nova rhythms, sudden change-ups to smooth jazz, tuvan throat singing, and other such nonsense. Hopefully such sonic vacillation tickles you as much as it does me.

Treads! Soundtrack

So, there's this game you can play on your phone or tablet made by the fabulous @fobwashed. It's called Treads! In it, you are tasked with simultaneously driving a tank and manipulating it's turret. There is much shooting, exploding and crushing.

While you traverse and perpetuate this horrific pixelated battlefield though, you get to listen to some bumpin' tunes. Hamst3r tunes! Stuff with big orchestrations, big booms, rippin' guitars, chiptune noises, electro synths, impact wrenches, tuned servos and all manner of noises.

There you have it. That's quite a bit of new music. All kinds of different new music too. Hopefully you find something to enjoy in there.

Now I have to get back to watching Gintama. I'm on episode 275!
