Two New Trax on UATV

I’ve just finished a new mix of Neptune with which I’m very pleased, but I’m not going to release it until I finish a few of the other mixes. However, I have put two new Vibe Patrol trax up on UATV for subcribers who are so inclined to listen to and download. One is the Watership Down-inspired The Shining Wire, while the other is a more traditional love-angst song called This Crack in My Heart, which has several mixes. The version here is the Nothing More mix.

More Christmas, More Carols

We’re hosting our annual Christmas party today, so posting will be light. But please enjoy the latest releases from Vibe Patrol, being a spin on Good King Wenceslas as well as a new celebration of the Christmas season called The Word Descended. I like cheerful odes to the season as much as the next man, but the divine descent into darkness is the aspect of Christmas that strikes me as the most meaningful, and which I find the most compelling.

The dark carol was inspired by the verse inscribed in stone in a small Italian church where I used to live.

Il Verbo si fece carne e venne ad abitare in mezzo a noi.

The Word descended,
God made real.
A child is born
For His ordeal.
The Word descended,
Of flesh and bone,
The King will come
To claim His throne.
The Son of God,
The Sacrifice,
To free Mankind
He paid the price.

Cheerleader Candy

My old friend and bandmate graciously gave me permission to release COSMIC TRIGGER in all of its manifold varieties as I see fit, so I’ll be putting some of the mixes up on Spotify soon. But UATV subscribers don’t have to wait, as they can listen to all three of the modern mixes already.

And yes, Cheerleader Candy is exactly what you suspect and fear it might be. It might be worth recalling that I’m from an award-winning 90’s techno band that never hesitated to release – never mind record – six or seven very different mixes per single. So if you haven’t subscribed to UATV yet, what more could you possibly be waiting for?
