F. Tyler - Hardware Test (Letters From Andromeda)

This is one of the albums I made when I became interested in Granular Synthesis. It was recorded throughout 2005 and was released in a few different ways, but I never made artwork I was satisfied with or touched up the sound in any way like I've done here.

Due to issues with archival, I had to work with very lo-fi files and try to touch up where I could. Any clipping is due to my unfamiliarity with recording techniques in the stone ages of 2 decades ago.

Every main piece on this album (Parts I - IV) was improvised. The device I used was a hand built noise making box run through a cheap multi effects unit. The last two tracks were originally titled as Parts V and VI, but were actually recorded separate from the rest of the album. I felt they fit so they were re-titled and included again with this remaster.

It was originally released under a different project name that I have since abandoned.

Thanks for listening!
