Cyborgguineapig I love everything you have done thus far including these raw versions of tracks which you decided wisely to release. Mytheme lll/IV (Become Eternal Version) is probably my favorite versions. Maybe they are not the final revision and prefer the final form but these tracks have so much emotion and energy to them. Simply incredible.

about

'Ephemera' is an archival collection of early and alternate versions, non-album tracks, experiments and demos. Think of these as the DVD special features for each album.

Here we have two versions of the 'Mytheme' album, and other tracks from around the same time.

I've grown to dislike the second version (released on cassette by Become Eternal) and much of the material from around 2015-2016. I think I was listening to a lot more rock than pure synth, and groups like Cybotron (the Australian band) who combined live drums with synths. Also crazy stuff like Richard Pinhas and his group Heldon. I experimented with sampled drum kits and even sampled bass guitar and to be honest some of the results are surprisingly 'realistic'. However it now all sounds contrived to me and I consider much of the period a big mis-step.

Following this unsatisfactory period, I overhauled all of my albums, save for 'Unknown Zones' which had just been released on vinyl. At the time of writing (2021), this work has just been completed and I have for the first time a completely clean slate.

'Aegis' is from a tribute album to the late Edgar Froese of Tangerine Dream.

'Effortless' exists only as a 320kbps mp3 files, although it will be converted to your desired audio file format upon download.
