This release has a long(not that long) backstory behind it, I will post a link now so that you may pass the time by reading.

Godinpants- Are You With Us or What
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v11/grommit/Photo15-1.jpg
(i don't own a scanner)

Millions of Eons ago, perhaps before time itself began, there was a man. Several mans... They were spacemen but back then everything was space, so they were pretty busy, infact they themselves were space, it was a pretty complicated universe to understand but I'm sure you have a small idea of what I mean.

There was also this giant whale. Huge and white like a giant whale shaped bottle of milk, it would later go on to battle with Captain Ahab, a story that would be recounted by Herman Melville in the not too distant past.

Long story short, the spacemen fought the whale, it was long and bloody, and most of them died. Except for one. GODINPANTS. The sole survivor of the group used their remains to forge the beginnings of the universe, rendering himself an unemployed astronaut.

Disgruntled and with plenty of free time left, he took up gameboy music(after he invented both music and the gameboy to give himself something to do later on)
(he also invented pop culture so he could have something to reference on his album covers)

I'm not sure where the story goes, and if you are still reading it, good work, because I would have stopped reading by now really, there's some other quality threads going on around here, go check the for sale section or something. Maybe underclock your gameboy while you wait for the download, it doesn't take that long to do.

Track Listing
1. Daftmash - A Daftpunk mashup/tribute deal.
2. Sunchaser- A happy song.
3. Unemployed Astronaut- A bit sad perhaps?
4. Mediocrit - Striving for mediocrity in a world of excellence.
5. Prosthetic Whale - You should read the description for this song in my profile.
6. Are You With Us or What - Underclocked DMG meets Monome.(my favourite song on here).

addition: so i printed up 30 of these covers, im going to give away 25 of them at a show next week. The other five I guess I will offer as trades for an EP of yours

Thanks guys it means a lot.

Unemployed Astronaut is definitely the best I've done so far.(I uploaded it here named incomplete life goals, i'm sure you can see how those two names work together).

Also, edited with cover now. I don't own a scanner, so until i can convince a friend to scan it, that's the best I've got.

I too wish that new wave was cool again.

Downloaded, listened and loved it. Oddly, my fav is "Are You With Us or What?", despite the amen. Very cool song.

Thanks chaps.

New wave will make a come back!

As for amens, they have their place, I think the key is limited use opposed to every track.

I could barely tell it was the amen.  Maybe my ears just aren't toned enough.
..or honed, I guess you could say.  Honed to find the amen in every breakbeat track.

Well it's not exactly "the" amen, but it is "an" amen, it seems to have just become the term for all breakbeats.

Thanks for the nice words 10k and Astro.
