This year has been a strong one for us in the studio. We’ve spent more time making music than at any other point since we began. Between the main studio and our own set-ups, we’ve been working flat out, and the support from you, our listeners and followers, has meant a lot. It keeps us moving and keeps the art honest. Nothing stays still, and that keeps the energy up.

This project is a continuation of our Sleep Deprivation series, and a counterpoint to our recent Loud Ambient work. It’s also our way of saying thank you to everyone who has supported us so far. We want you to feel seen, especially if you are skint. We are still fans of music, and we know what it means when someone gives their time and attention. Your support this year has driven us to keep creating. It also allows us to stick to the DiY ethics, because we don’t want to deal with corporations that drain the life out of what we do.

As a thank you, we’ve made this album “pay what you want”, so if you are skint, you can pay nowt.

Thank you.

My Brutal Life – The Ambient Mixes – September 2025

Posted on 1st August 2025 in Mixes, Releases

“During our studio sessions, we occasionally get sidetracked, either by following creative impulses or simply having fun. While working on these mixes for our streaming channel, it was clear something else was happening. Something unexpected. It unfolded on its own.

Before we realised it, we had over three hours of completely new recordings, all centred around “My Brutal Life”. This box set features over 3 hours of brand-new music and exclusive remixes, presented on three CDs. It’s an exploration of long-form works, leading with emotion rather than structure, so come with us through the inner cityscapes, where grey over green wins every time.”

Available to order now and released on the 12th of September 2025.

Well another month’s rolled by and we’re down to finishing the last three tracks on the album, along with a touch of mastering.

After testing out over 60 different track configs on CDR we have finally selected the 15 tracks for the album, we haven’t added any bolts just yet. We reckon another 3 weeks and we’ll be done but we’ve said that before.

Here’s another URS mix we’ve made, this one helped us get out of the habit of mixing one track into another smoothly, great if your a DJ but not always the best way to program an album and a tricky habit to get out of.
