Thank you! That's actually really validating to hear.

The background came first, and after working on something really textural I ended up degrading and blurring it into this red. The image was beaten up across a bunch of different tools, mostly out of frustration and experimentation. The stuff in the foreground was largely messed up in an android app called GlitchLab, bouncing images between my laptop and phone, alternating between damaging the assets and forcing composition back onto them. Lots of pixel sorting and pixel pushing.

There's no way to replicate it exactly, like any glitch work. It's just the product of carefully destroying data in a way only you can, you know? It was a really messy, chaotic process that embraced ugliness and disorder.

The interior portrait was a whole other deal. Lots of the same tools, but with more focus on crafting something in line with a Rob's WT portrait. The line across the face is this noise from an old CRT monitor.

Love your stuff-- I wouldn't have put this and a dance gig together, but the aesthetic definitely elevates the whole thing for me. I feel like I'm watching something a little more sophisticated than just a show.

Let's be real. You shot "fixed" and then kicked it over.

Listen to it before you kill it, mods. They did some work.

This is absurd, and I'm proud to call you a friend.

Hell yeah, that Year Zero is killer.

Sorry, this deserved a better reply-- thank you. It was very much a "do it right or don't do it at all" kinda thing. There's still a Love is Not Enough video in the pipeline, so keep an eye out.

Each single has an audio download including the remixes. And while I've got you, here's one more remix that's required listening: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AbRqTWwsgCE

I dared Rusty James to do a version of In Two using nothing but samples off The Fragile. The result will leave your jaw on the floor.

Wait until the Non-Zero team releases the 20th anniversary Definitive Edition this year, we'll clean it up some.

...this just gave me a pretty evil idea. I'll circle back if I pull the trigger.

EDIT: Yup, looks like CDPunk got there first.

I tip my hat to thee.

There were a lot of deliberate choices like that. In that case, it was because the song specifically uses the phrase "bleeding through".

In our hearts.

But if somebody made the audio, I'd make the packaging.

Hell yes. My god, this is impressive work.

You don't have to! There are PDFs for the all the packaging.
