FOR ALL THAT IS FREE /
N?I KABÁT REMIX
20/12/12

Closing up what was quite a busy year for SOFT RIOT, here’s a holiday offering: a free download of “Seeds of Time (Soft Riot’s Shatter Version)” by Női Kabat! This track was originally released on their now sold out cassette single “I Corrode/Seeds of Time”. Some of these tracks may likely appear on a more official release next year.

Throughout 2012 there have been Soft Riot “versions” of tracks for various friends and artists including Window Twins, Lebanon Hanover, Babe Rainbow and more. All of these tracks are all still available as free downloads.

Thanks for your support in the year 2012. There will possibly be one final “captain’s log” for 2012 to ring in the new year of 2013.

THE HOLY INTRUDER + A TERRIBLE SPLENDOUR
04/04/12

A new compilation is coming out soon on the label Aural Sects featuring a sizable roster of dark electronic artists doing their own interpretations of tracks from video games old and new. Soft Riot has done a version of “The Holy Intruder”, an incidental piece from the 1993 Super Nintendo/Squaresoft video game The Secret of Mana. More information on this release is to come later this month but in the meantime you can listen to the track via the Soft Riot SoundCloud here.

Filming and video editing skills have also been supplied to friends in the group A Terrible Splendour for their promo video for the track “Victimless Crime”, which can be viewed here:

That is all for now…
