Well, it's gotten 5 or 6 (almost) complete spins, but "The Thing" only has gotten 2. I'll spin that one again, it's just that I prefer that with headphones and this disc has been in my car all week. I also grabbed "Little Black Train" but '13 Songs' hasn't left the player! Some tunes have gotten played many more times, like "Rtuff", maybe one of my favorite BD pieces ever. Totally brilliant. I'll probably start a different thread so it can be properly archived here.
PS -also spun Stockhausen "Kontakte" tonight. I play so much weird music, the kids didn't even notice it, and I had it cranked up. That is also seriously beyond incredible.
I have never heard any Stockhousen, its time to change that

Here are a few photos I took in August 2012 when I was recording "Agents of Decay", with some description of what I was doing: http://bdblog.bdrak.com/june-july-august/
The song is here: https://soundcloud.com/b-d-1/agents-of-decay
I used the "poor man's Leslie" on the Solina organ during the verses.
The final result is all that matters, the rest is just me having too much fun and working dawn till dusk

Just got this too. One spin through, very enjoyable a la Effigies although I'm sure future listens will further reveal this album. Overall it has the same carefree, grooving fun nature about it. Of course, stellar playing.
