Rubber is a collection of 6 songs, 5 of which were released prior on Deformat. They have all been mastered, and brought to modern standards of formats (originally released as 128kb mp3) I wanted to do something special for this one, as I always thought this was my best work for years. So I made new art for it, repaired wav forms, re-rendered (although changed nothing) and kept it as true of a re-master as I could. Rubber was originally released about 20 years ago. The exact date isn't exactly known, although 2008 saw it released on Deformat. Before that, these tracks were distributed on CD3 in Toronto, and via slsk. To the best of my knowledge they were all written around 2005-2006 based off of the final buzz files. They were released originally some time after that. Because of the exact date being unknown, this is close enough to a 20 year anniversary by my book. If you disagree with that no one at all cares but you... and it is awesome to have something that makes you unique. Note: Acetaminophen, also known as Tylenol was released in a different version. It was tacked onto this as it best fit the mood of the EP for the Vinyl version. It is distributed as well with the digital for that reason.
4 tracks and a bonus of hardcore, breakcore, and insanity by John Merrik. This EP, and it's titular track are about an AI reaching human like intelligence, but with no means to output/communicate. Based on and inspired by Harlan Ellison's story of the (similar) name "I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream" Gabber kicks, chopped breaks, and madness.
6 tracks from 3 artists, all with an apathetic tone. Just in time to shove up someone's stocking for Xmas This is the first in an installment that will be released whenever it can be bothered. If you have a song that fits the concept of apathy, wants to make a bad joke, wants to be politically ambiguous, and not understood... Then please, reach out to @deformat.records on IG and send it on over. Thank you for listening
This album by John Merrik was an attempt to make 4 different songs that embodied their style of a different era in their career, making breakcore/hardcore/speedcore (anything core, you get it) This EP is available for free, although any amount given is greatly appreciated.
