about

hundreds of phrases and words, cut up and rearranged into some kind of a "story" - although of course it's not really - or is it?

follow the adventures of Detective Sergeant Candy Blank, as she descends down a messy, sticky, confusing rabbithole of intrigue and dream.

source material was collected from a bunch of audiobooks:

That Empty Feeling
The Bell Jar
Rattle
Dragons of Autumn Twilight
The Soft Machine
Queen of Air and Darkness
The Dark Lake
Twilight
Silent Music

they were more or less selected randomly. several of them were basically crime-fiction, and several of them were trad fantasy stuff. i didn't actually listen to them, but just grabbed a few chapters at random from each and went through them stealing samples. overall, the finished audiobok is a lot more "storylike" than i ever thought it would be - although of course it really isn't.

another thing i noticed was that, even in a sentence spoken by eight different readers, my brain would somehow still pay more attention to WHAT was being said than WHO was saying it - the brain searches for meaning, even when it's totally conscious that there actually is none, and when the deliverer of that "meaning" is so clearly fractured and fragmented. interesting!

this took so many obsessive hours to create. i hope you enjoy it.

the cover artwork has very little to do with the audio, except, of course, for that beaker of glowing liquid...

about

Buttress O'Kneel Australia

“Words like "mashup" and "remix" don't really do justice to Buttress O'Kneel's method - Top 40 pop crap gets sliced, diced, and tossed into a dizzying, exciting hardcore electro stew. Compared to other djs who timidly drop a Vanilla Ice acapella over a Chemical Bros intro just to move a dance floor, O'Kneel shreds copyrights with a blood-curdling vehemence. Smash the state!”
