Stoltz

Taking a chainsaw to what will be track 5, fostering a guitar part for added villianry. 

The ghost snare must remain. 

I think this one is my low-key favourite crime scene. 

Stz

& finally I return to advance on the temple, where the full beating heart of the bad-book resides, for tonight we accomplish a fresh mix, more detail, minor key tweaks, deeper balance, I think this is now close to the arrival point. 

Track 11 XT10 is here. 

It's been a productive week for real & sampled strings…

On monday, I went to visit with an old College lecturer of mine from back in my Music Tech day's, he kindly volunteered to record an electric guitar part to overdub the current synth version on track 5, he did a cracking job & added a certain unteathered inperfect human element to it, I'll be layering that in this week, & chasng a final mix on another piece for the bad place. 

Along with that, I've spent a little time manipulating a classical style acoustic guitar part for the final (credits) track in the dark place. 

Starting to see the dark at the end of the tunnel now. 

In winter, we will all live in the cities of…

& now we enter the final stages of making the bad place, where bad deeds are done, where difficult people do dark things, where ender plans are executed, we now go to FUTOPIA. 

I'm back in it now, working on the last stages. I've just pulled an all-nighter bringing one piece from a “maybe cut it” to a “fuck-on you heavy bastard!” What will be track 09, is now up to 3rd status, & well worth the alert upgrade. Extra beats, more emphasis on the horned growl, deeper swing, darker shuffle, & some powerful sound design. The #Iridium, the #Blofeld, the #OpSix, all make a disgruntled appearance, & they do it well! 

A lot more to come over the next few months, as I finalize my best work yet, the thing that shall define me. You won't hear it until the winter though, as this thing isn't a summer groove. 

Soon electro monkey's, soon…

DEEP into the weeds of Malgatude Volume Eight now, broken the back of some the final few question marks, with only one troublesome grumbly thump left to unleash. I also manged to dig up a unique vocal sample from the 2nd track I ever produced (a horrid nightmare sound of a thing called “Dead Rabbits” that's been swirling about in the back-wash of my consiousness for over 25 years, constructed entirely on a Tascam 328 8-track cassette multitrack), I fully intend to use this sample somewhere in something… 

Soon.

Over the last few weeks I've been slowly preparing the final Malgatude Album, Volume Eight. 

Currently Album eight stands at 15 tracks deep, & I think will end up being about 46 minutes in length. 

So far it features 9 remasters, & 6 re-works. It's the re-works that soaks up the time, as I'm finishing up what are some good sonic scatch-outs, but need a bit of work to reach they're potential & make them Malgatude ready. I think another few weeks & it'll be release worthy, & then its onto the NEW. 

I've spent the last 2 day's merging & refining two versions of a track Idea I had at the earlier part of 2025. I was going to abandon it, but over the last few months, when I've been re-evaluating works, its quality quietly grew on me. Maybe one more tweak & I move on to more challenging Phuc's

The first half of 2025 was spent bringing a certain project near to the finish line, many years & a lot of sleepless nights have culminated in something unique & new. As I approach the point of presenting the work, it occurred to me that frankly, what was available from Stoltz was an utter mess. Looking at it over, I can't show new things, until I got this house in order, & right the structure the new can exist on. 

& so we arrive to the 2nd half of 2025, where I made the decision to sort through 25 years of music, demo's, sonic snakz, tasters, idea's, unreleased, unfinished & just plan old works, that few, if any have really heard. Somewhere amongst it all should be a collection of tracks that are a good representation of Stoltz & what I've been fiddling with all these years. & so, I created the MALGATUDE VOLUMES. They are a series of Albums, drawing from those 25 years of work, re-mastered, re-worked, & polished up for a modern presentation. 

I used this as an opportunity to launch Stoltz on BandCamp, a music streaming platform that is far & away better for independent musicians than the rape-show that is Spotify, Apple Music & the like. 

Originally I expected to maybe cherry pick about 2 or possibly 3 albums, & rattle it all out in about 3 weeks. That was not the case, as 25 years of music tends to be a bit more than a couple of tracks… 

& so the Albums I pulled together cover a cross section of years & sounds:-

Malgatude Volume One - Prophet before Pride (Works 2000-2003)

Malgatude Volume Two - Crawl Ideas Works (Works 2002-2006)
