Description

Hello! It has been a while, I know. What happened? To make a long story short... after my ribcage melted, I sunk inside the cavern of my chest cavity and got lost. Good news, though... I am finally starting to dig my way out...

Make sure you check out the two incredible alternate versions that have been posted...

(The artwork is a combination of a photo by Frank and a woodcut print by Heather.)

GRRRR
What i see. The chest is cut open with every hit of the hi-hat and bit-crunched beat. A subtle sound warns me not to stay awake, still I plunge in and I feel warm dispair and pain. The low bass sound stiffened me up. Somefin must be wrong. The beat feels like the rythm section of an old organ gone psycho. Ahaa! The dpc found it, we need to get rid of it. A dark reverb and some nano-bots are gonna sort out. I lose my consciousness...

	There he is Mister rhythm freakazoid, himself... The beauty of inferred melody w/ residue of invisible harmony... You mechanical wizard, you. I'm always left intrigued, partly satiated, w/ a desire for more or less, but not knowing... But mostly, feeling better... Thanks! Glad to hear you back!

	Chest Cavities Rock There's just no one like you, Mr. Stun Nutz. I always marvel at your ability to take sound-noise and make it musical...catchy, even. I've listened to this three times and there are more listens in my future, then maybe a trip around Spagizm. I'm very happy to see you back! Check out my latest song called Black Star (MJ Live Aid w/jgurner)

	It is... ..good to hear you find the catchiness in my experiments... and it also makes me happy to see you are happy that I am back... I like your happy new photo as well... see you around!! Check out my latest song called Gossamer dissected

ouch
I started to think about that Body Worlds exhibit... freaked me the hell out. I guess this would be falling into the chest cavity and then poking around the innerds a bit, eh? I can hear the nerves, the arteries, woah, there's the heart, and of course the brain sparks. Lots going on in yer head, buddy. Glad you found your way out. this is really astonishing production.

Stun Nutz	Stun Nutz said 812 days ago (August 19th, 2007)
	ooohh... ...interesting that you would compare this to the Body Works exhibits... I have never seen them firsthand, but they have intrigued me and repulsed me at the same time. Funny, that's just the kind of balance I like in music!! You are right in your thinking... Check out my latest song called Gossamer dissected

pooey	pooey said 812 days ago (August 19th, 2007)
	Whoosh! Ditto what everyone else said, plus I love your attention to form. I love how it builds, diminishes: its a great piece. And you used Spear! Glad you could add it to your toolbox. I've played with it lots but haven't ventured so far as to use it musically. Very cool, Stun. This piece sizzles. Check out my latest song called Wake Up (Pooey Remix)

Stun Nutz	Stun Nutz said 811 days ago (August 20th, 2007)
	Yes!!! Thanks again for the tip on Spear! It's a fun program, but I haven't figured out how to get really hi-quality audio out of it, so I layered the noise... here I primarily used it in the closing section (or "coda" if you will!!!). Check out my latest song called Gossamer dissected

	emotive..... i know you like the comical side of sonic goo... but i love it when you go dark n fragmented. this is the best track since time stress fracture..... wonderful stuff man...... Check out my latest song called lit with a wet match.

	oh yeah..... the pic looks like a recon of chest CT gone amiss...... loved it. i'm a CT tech. so i couldn't help but get a kick out of it..... Check out my latest song called lit with a wet match.

Stun Nutz	Stun Nutz said 810 days ago (August 21st, 2007)
	I like that... "sonic goo"... that has a nice ring to it...! Yeah, it's interesting to see what kind of fans prefer the goofy stuff and which ones prefer the darker stuff. I am so goofy in real life that the darker stuff works as a nice balance. It shows a side of me that isn't often shown in the real world. Check out my latest song called Gossamer dissected

	Joining of the disjointed? Totally chaotic yet somehow it all binds together and makes complete and total sense, unlike life for example! Great choice of sounds that are masterfully pieced together. Excellent production as well. Man I heard and saw through my ears a menagerie of all sorts of things! ;-P Kudos on a fine composition. Alvin Check out my latest song called Dark Circus

!!!!!!!!
classic nutz.

gritty, but with a different feel. while some other, older, trax of yours give me feelings of urbanity ala downtown detroit (i can feel the gravel beneath my feet as i listen) this track takes me to a completely computer world. that scratchy grit is replaced with a zinging, numbing electricity.

this is also expansive in a ridiculously fantastic way. this deserves to be part of a soundtrack.

excellent work my old friend.
