Hated this record. Chill-out music for people who went snowboarding once.
"Mezzanine isn’t just an album, it’s a happening. It’s music that seeps, slowly, into the bloodstream. Elizabeth Fraser's work on ‘Teardrop’ is exquisite, like the ghost of a memory, a haunting spell."

Got a hold of Crystal Breaker after seeing it recommended on here. LOVE it - Favourite shmup for ages.
Score/ attack/ health/ powerup systems all super-interdependant, and they all encourage fast, aggressive play. Tension all comes from the systems too.
Tight af, so fun!

My big project: The Death Generator.
It's a tool for making fake video game screenshots, just fill in new text and it'll give you a (generally) pixel-accurate image back, the correct fonts and everything.

I ❤️ the BBC as a significant funder of 'the Arts'. Provided me and many musicians I know with a starting point, a viable broadcast and live platform and solid session fees that literally paid for albums to get made.
One wonders though, if they should have a policy of - i dunno - sacking sex pests?
