The Stapler EP, out NOW! on Control Breaks
Written by Squatter on June 29, 2009 – 1:03 pm -
Here’s the press release:
“Lord of the twisted beats, Squatter, returns to Control Breaks with the long awaited Stapler EP. It contains two original tracks from his dark and malevolent mind, first up is the mercurial magic of ‘Roll It Up’. A true gem this track utilises the vocal talents of MC Regimental to give it that extra special punch.
‘Roll it Up’ arrives accompanied with a remix from Control Breaks top man, Section. He turns the track in a more 4/4 direction with some oh so very contemporary, heavy bass added.
Finally we reach the second piece of Squatter mayhem – ‘Married to a Stapler’ is a moving and deeply emotional tale of one man’s struggle to find happiness in a world that thinks him a perverted freak. Thankfully this sad tale is told not through poetry or lengthy monologues but jackin’ beats, thumping basslines and menacing synths.
All in all a truly startling package from a soon to be superstar producer!
Be sure to check out www.controlbreaks.com or www.myspace.com/controlbreaks for more details and a little sample from each of the classic tunes.”
And here are a few sites where you can get hold of the tracks:

Collabs
Written by Squatter on June 18, 2009 – 5:08 pm -I’ve just stuck up a list of links of people i’ve worked on tracks and things with and remixes etc. If i’ve missed you out then just badger me about it 
There are lots of new tracks a-brewing at the moment, but none have actually got to a finished point yet, hence no posts recently!
Incase anyone’s looked out of the window recently you’ll also notice that it’s summer, which may have something to do with it as well..

Mailing List
Written by Squatter on February 9, 2009 – 8:15 pm -… and on the left we have a rather marvellous email signup box, circa 2009.
Legend has it that if you drop your email in, you will receive very sporadic but highly informative and possibly life-enhancing emails from Squatter himself!!!
Alternatively it could spawn a curse which will affect your ability to sense rainfall… we’re not sure yet, our tests have proved inconclusive.
Moving on, on your right is the puffin infested lava pool. this dates back to yadda yadda…
