Written by Squatter on March 18, 2009 – 5:27 pm -

Wooooohooooooo!!!!!

For those blissfully unaware of my production endurance test, throughout advent i remixed a track from a different artist every single day.

These tracks are now available as shiny CDs in little clear boxes, expertly forged into seamless mixes by two of Pyrate Music’s top DJs Disfunk and Anek, and feature not only bucket loads of original music but also exclusive Squatter stylee artwork.

The mixes will be available at a later date, but these CDs are strictly limited edition, so act fast. In order to get hold of one do the following:

1. Email me – squatter.email at yahoo.co.uk – tell me your address, and how you want to pay for it – either in person or by post

2. I’ll then send you an email back with payment instructions

3. You pay the dosh – need i remind you that every and all profits from this are going to charity (making music). i get nowt

4. I post it in the next few days or hand it to you. hell, i can even sign it if you really want, or dribble on it a little bit.

How much you cry? For two CDs featuring 26 tracks comprising 140 minutes worth of music?

Ten pounds (plus £2 postage in UK, a bit more for overseas) Bargain. And it’s for charity.

Just think how cool you’ll look walking down the street holding the CDs high above your head and shouting for joy…

Hull International Short Film Festival

Written by Squatter on March 15, 2009 – 12:09 pm -

I recently completed some sound design work for a short film titled ‘Endless Cry’.
The film is wicked and went down well, and as such it is to be shown at the 7th Hull International Short Film Festival ‘Glimmer 2009′.

Huzzah! Nice work V! :)

The Sun – by Squatter

Written by Squatter on March 3, 2009 – 6:14 pm -

When the sun is long set,
And your eyes accustom to the enveloping dark,
The night looms on eternal;
Even the weakest of candles cast their light.

You grow cold inside.

Numbness sets in, and you resonate with the strange noises of the night.

.

Forever later,
After you’ve given up hope that it ever could,
The dawn finally breaks,
And the sun fires the sky.

The first rays tingle your skin, your heart thumps, and warmth soaks through to your soul.

The sun lights up everything around you.

You bask while you can,
But the sun cannot be tamed,
And will continue its journey through the heavens,
Leaving you once more to the darkness.

The only way to stop it is to pursue,
And join it on its path.

Man cannot exist without the radiance of the sun.
