Two Releases at archive.org
Complete releases
I've put two full releases up on archive.org - an old Nerve Agent EP and also Victor Xray material from earlier this year.
Because it's archive.org, you get a choice of formats - the original VBR MP3, 64k MP3, or OGG, and you can also stream and playlist them from their site.
Fire Bed Dub (mp3)
Victor Xray 320kbps mp3
This weekend's new track! A rough cut of one I call "Fire Bed Dub". I really like the space in this one; it's nicely minimal but not minimal techno, a cross between digi-dub and dubstep. Actually if you crank it up from dubstep-tempo (140bpm) to around 180 bpm it suddenly becomes Dancehall stylee! I've probably got some changes to make in the coming weeks (and maybe a Dancehall-tempo mix ;-)). Enjoy.

Victor Xray live at Upgrade/Next Level 27 Oct 2007
I'm Victor Xray and I don't have any rock moves -- Live Set
I've been quiet on the music and blogging front in recent weeks - I've been quite busy and distracted so unable to make new music as I attend to some of the administrivia surrounding making music.
This here's a recording of my set at Upgrade on 27th Oct. It's straight from the digital mixing there to memory stick - a very nifty feature. It suffers from one or two technical flaws - it seems very soft in volume, and more importantly one of the effects tracks has both L+R panned hard right which makes some reverbs and delays a bit lopsided. It's also EQ'd for a front of house PA system but it still sounds OK with a bit of fiddling in your MP3 player's EQ. The recording is nice and crisp at 192kbps for 45 minutes or so. I fucked up my timing again with this set so at the end I have to fill in my set time by playing a Retarded Mouse track which I introduce in a rather retarded fashion.
Warning big file ( > 60Mb)! Download Victor Xray Live @ Next Level 192kbps MP3.
Thanks to James and Dennis.
