Notes for the words

Love twists - James Ellroy inspired piece , the Kill Pretty version is on the Dark Heart album

Hammer Blows - written in horror , Larry Gott wrote great music for it , recorded by Kill Pretty as b side of the Rob A Bank single.

Clever men with Thin Arms - a phrase thrown up during an episode of ' Games of Thrones' I seized it and wrote this in 2 or 3 minutes , the Kill Pretty version is on the Dark Heart album

Finnish Hitman , recounting accurately an encounter I had in Stockholm after watching FCUnited , tried once or twice with Kill Pretty to no avail

Dark Heart - I received as a birthday present from my close friend Ciarán a hip hop compilation that inspired me to write something rhythmical , the song was me preparing myself for open heart surgery , the Kill Pretty version is on the Dark Heart album.

A Day in September

Swastika Girls - a straight honest narrative account of the self destructive impulses I struggled with as a teenager , to a backdrop of Fripp and Eno , I spilt blood. Appear on the Kill Pretty album Bubblegum Now.

Devil Resides - about internal struggle , the Kill Pretty version is on the Dark Heart album

13 moons - drawing inspiration from a genius of cinema , the Kill Pretty version is on the Dark Heart album with a remix on the Snake Sheds Skins album.

Mirror Factory - my job was crushing me , I knew I needed to move on even though things might not work out , a resignation letter , the Kill Pretty version is on the Dark Heart album

Kenneth Williams Penpal - performed at either the last Sicknurse show or first Kill Pretty show depending on your perspective.

Zombie Beat - written as lyric for a dark electronic track at the request of a friend

Hessler Berghoff - a bad dream gifted me this , recorded by Sicknurse and Kill Pretty on the album "in 80 days".

Limboland - on the Kill Pretty album , Snake Sheds Skins , more misery!

Wild at Heart - written while recuperating , it was all in my head as I took a walk , simply poured it onto a page when I got home , on Kill Pretty album bubblegum now

Emperors New Clothes , , 2 versions by kill pretty on albums , in 80 days and Snake Sheds Skins. Fame at any level plays tricks with people's perceptions

Notes for the sounds

The pace was picking up we were recording at a ridiculously fast rate, even for me - this set would be predominantly jazz and dub.

Love Twists - Jimmy Smith influenced Hammond repeated ad infinitum with strange swirling things

Hammer Blows (Raining Blood) - Larry Gott's original was breathtakingly good so I found myself trying to make it as simple as possible - rhythm and electric piano

Clever Men Who Have Thin Arms - Filles de Kilimanjaro without the trumpet - it's jazzy man

Finnish Hitman - ambient sounds, jamaican drums, and Fripp/Eno squiggles

Dark Heart - back to that Miles Davis sound, I couldn't possibly cope with the magnificence of the original so I just took it to a smoky bar somewhere

A Day In September - paranoia, conspiracy and claustrophobia

Swastika Girl - jazz piano and atonal synth clusters

Devil Resides - experimenting with some of the more fascinating parts of the Oscillator synth - live mixing of the echo/reverb elements

13 Moons - previous de-constructed elsewhere but this time King Tubby influenced

Mirror Factory - Moet as Francis Albert at the bar of the Dog & Duck at closing time asking Joe to set them up again.

Kenneth Williams Penpal - simple electronic repetition

Zombie Beat - sweeps, Wakeman-esque piano's, the nearest you'll get to prog around here matey

Hessler Berghoff - funky urban stuff.....IM reminds me of Old Gunslinging Bill on this one so I imagine a dance hall with William, Brion, Jack K and Allen G doing the funky chicken to this tune.

Limboland - a tune I spent many hours reconstructing from studio bits so I needed to exorcise that experience - more elevator music for the slightly deranged.

Wild at Heart - soul jazz urban - saxophone by Lash Pedicure of Hard The Transition

Emperors New Clothes - another one I spent hours reconstructing a couple of years back so the need to do something different- an exercise in dub which seemed logical - no grudges here.
