about

this is a compilation of music that i made from ages 14-20

i was going to say it charts my growth as an artist but i'm not sure if it actually does that. i guess it's less of an artistic statement as a fun piece of history from my life

tracks 1-4 were recorded when i was 14 with my band Binge on Celery - these tracks were recorded at squarehead studios over the course of a day. there were two more binge on celery tracks that i wanted to include but couldn't get a hold of unfortunately.

track 5 was recorded when i was 15 with my friend Dan in his bedroom - we got together and decided we wanted to write a ridiculous song. and we succeeded.

track 6 was recorded when i was 16 with my band 5am Pancakes -
actually it was written and recorded in the space of 30 minutes at school

tracks 7 & 8 were recorded in my bedroom when i was 16. this was when i made a brief foray into ambient electronic music using fruityloops. (it was brief cause i was no good at it lol)

track 9 was recorded when i was 18 with my friend Jamey in my bedroom - we were chatting in the pub one day about how sad we both were and how we liked bon iver. this is the result of that (it's not great)

track 10 was recorded with my friends Ryan and Jamey when we were 18. we thought it'd be funny to write the most generic metalcore track that we possibly could and make it about being betrayed by a toffee cheesecake. i love this one.

tracks 11 & 12 were recorded in my bedroom when i was 20 as an experiment with layering sinewaves. they're a sort of wannabe merzbow noise experiment that doesn't do a whole lot but hey, it's just a buncha sinewaves. these originally appeared on an ep i have now taken down called Big Love Big Heart.

track 13 was recorded when i was 20 as a joke. it's a mock billy bragg song that i really kinda love. i sent this to fearg pretending it was a rough mix of the first single from our band's debut album. he didn't appreciate it. it's silly and goofin but makes a strong Political Statement

track 14 was recorded when i was 14 with Dan in his bedroom and may be the most important thing i'll ever do. it's about salad cream.
