The Looptronica Sessions

Released january 7th, 2013.

It is not only the third support release for a Killing Cartoon Society volume. THE LOOPTRONICA SESSIONS turned to be my most referenced and downloaded album. It's even more known that the original LOOPTRONICA album. I had amounts of source materials coming from LOOPTRONICA that didn't make into the final cut of the album, so I decided to put the most significant on this work. Not only backing tracks and unreleased recordings were assembled for this release, but also featured a live recording of a remix of the original LOOPTRONICA master, and a previously unreleased piece called "Montreal", which I consider a personal favorite.

A standard 2 discs set was released in 2013 via Scriptsound Recordings and Oracle Music. In 2014, a Deluxe Expanded edition was released containing an additional disco of bonus material.

Whilst I prepared the release of this album, I decided to leave A.S.S. Studios and moved to Adolph DicksAppointed's home garage, where I installed Heaven & Hell Works Studios, with more facilities of recording and mastering.
