Disambiguated There's a real chance I could run out of superlatives at the rate Milieu release tracks of this quality. Another first rate addition to my collection from the eminence grise of the wooze, perfect to relax, chill and occasionally fall asleep to, and that's no bad thing these days... Favorite track: Afterlife Blues.

about

Following the STELLAR DEBRIS album are two EPs of additional material from the same sessions, cultivated from final-glossing tracks started in 2010-2011 a decade later - STANFORD TAURUS was the first of the supplemental recordings, and this, AFTERLIFE BLUES, is the second.

Where AFTERLIFE differs slightly from TAURUS is the presence of three tracks that are alternative versions of tracks included on H IS FOR HOLOGRAM - the title track, "Dustybootz" and "Almaz Iso-Tanks" - while the other four tracks are entirely new compositions. The three mixes came about while I was going through the original archived recordings for HOLOGRAM, with intent to remaster them, so they were well-suited to being included in the STELLAR DEBRIS session, which was much more a case of transfiguring the past into something suitable and cogent in the present. In this way, the versions can be seen as updates on their decade-older counterparts.

Altogether, AFTERLIFE BLUES offers a set of heavier dance music with distorted rhythms and unusually textured percussion and bass, intercut against beautiful deep ambient techno pieces - the latter including the fourth entry in the extrasolar Caladan Waveforms suite...could there still be others?

With AFTERLIFE BLUES now published alongside the ambient epilogue of ANDROMEDAN DELTAS, the entire cycle of H IS FOR HOLOGRAM's 10th anniversary celebration is over. Everything brought up to current standards and practices, here in the future, hopefully ready to weather another ten years. It only makes sense to assemble a special set collecting all seven entries, so if you're interested in acquiring all of the HOLOGRAM reissue materials and their adjacent new works in one go, please check out the STARCOM SEPTET package here: XXXX
