Hi all, I'd be extremely grateful for any listens / observations / feedback.

I had an epiphany recently where a realisation of my own mortality engorged my heart with fear and triggered a fight/flight response, so I've finished off four tracks and "released" them (to YouTube) as an audio / visual EP.
It's psychedelic rap music, the line of my influences follows a path through; Quincy Jones, early Public Enemy, De La Soul (Prince Paul), Bomb The Bass, DJ Shadow, Aphex Twin, Autechre, and of course Boards of Canada.
The visuals are a real trawl through sci-fi films and TV of the 70's and 80's. I had a really fun time putting it all together and it really scratched that itch for nostalgia. It's full of really juicy images of sci-fi people pushing buttons on shiny boxes.
There's next to no chance of me getting a commercial release for this as I've taken samples from around 300 different records and films. So it's out there purely for fun.
