Current mood:  pleased

Hey everybody!

   I went delving into The Unquiet Archives and decided it was time to introduce the world to another of the songs on the 4-song EP "The Unquiet Music" which was originally self released as "The Unquiet Demo CD #1". The song is titled Memories, Scarring Moments which ironically was co-named by an ex-girlfriend in what turned out to be the exact moment I knew our relationship was over. The track was done in 1995 recorded back to back with This Lost Soul which was a re-recording and much improved over the original. It's a bittersweet piece and listening to it now it fills me with a sense of being in my 20's when the world was new and exciting. Not to say that I'm a pessimist, I'm growing out of that, but there's an innocence about it that I truly love. I hope you enjoy it. Also, over the weekend I'll be posting a couple of others for your listening pleasure as well.

PS - last minute addition: "Shut Up and Dance" is a cover of the Loretta's Doll track of the same name. That was done in 2005. I am also posting a remix (by Bryin Dall) of "Angels" from Between the Twilights called "Angels (The Tortoises Are Nodding Mix) which features a random answering machine message left for Bryin by the late Lady J. P'Orridge (wife of Genesis P'Orridge of Psychic TV). Lady J. had passed away last year and in posting this I would like to pay tribute to her in her absence. I'm sure that many will say that she is indeed an angel!

"Memories, Scarring Moments" is an apt title for a haunting tune steeped in emotion (love, regret and loss). It is reminiscent of the sound of early Clan of Xymox without vocals. I'm sure that I speak for many when I strongly suggest that you make these early unreleased tunes available via download or other release format (not iTunes please!).

Thank you so much Charlie! I can't even begin to tell you what that means to me. I can't even remember to imagine what it was like back then walking around with that intensity of emotion swimming around in my head, my heart and my soul. I do remember feeling an absolute NEED to write and record music. "Memories, Scarring Moments" came from a time of innocence and change... and as I have always said, "Change is constant and never painless." It's a difficult piece for me to listen to but it's captivating nonetheless. I'm so happy that it touches you... I've only ever wanted to reach people and touch their hearts, if not souls, with my outpouring of emotion. It was those early years, 1993 - 1997 that will make up the double album I wish to self release in limited quantities and then push for a digital release. But these tracks (as are all Unquiet Void tracks) raw and uncensored in any way. But I am quite touched by your comment and I thank you wholeheartedly for that. And I love early Clan of Xymox... 4AD was the shit back in the day!
