- The Still Crescent EP represents my first experiments using a computer to make music. The music is made from free plug-ins found around the internet, the only 'real' instrument used was a guitar; in fact a lot of the texture on the recordings was the result of an iffy input socket on my soundcard that the guitar was plugged into, one of those happy accidents.

- This will be the final Still Crescent release. For me Still Crescent was about exploring electronic and computer based sounds, I felt content after the release of Along the Fringe of Starlit Frost EP that I had achieved what I wanted out of the project.

- I've since returned to more organic ways of recording, reminiscent of my
August Stars project. Any future releases are likely to come out in my own name.

-The two previous EPs came out on Make Mine Music (http://www.makeminemusic.co.uk/) and are available from boomkat (Boomkat Still Crescent Link)
