'MOTH3R' and 'R3MIXES' are now availble at Archaic Horizon... download your copies here.

I also wanna give a big THANK YOU to all the people who put in their time and energy to make these remixes... much love.

As always, love and appreciation to you all. Enjoy!

Just wanted to give another quick update regarding the line up of producers on the Moth3r remixes album. As you read previously, there have been a few adjustments due to some busy folks.

But alas, all is good, and the remixes are done and in my possession.

The line up (track/artist):

Goddess - Celer
Down We Go - Supercomputer Six Thousand
Choke - Aless
Scarlet - Coppice Halifax
Light Lesson - Implex Grace
Foxfire - Hecca
Never Enough - Headphone Science
Locus Ceruleus - Drexon Field
Vicious Cycle - Cheju
At This Depth - Counterspark
The Earth Mother - Electricwest

I'm going to be finalizing everything in the next few days, and soon (thankfully) this double release will be ready and available to you all. Yay!

The Moth3r remixes are nearly complete; just waiting on a few more...

In the remix line-up, unfortunately David Tagg and CIty Rain are no longer with us... Thankfully, Celer have stepped in and delivered a truly gorgeous remix of 'Goddess'. No updates just yet on who will be remixing 'Choke' in the place of City Rain, but we will all see soon enough.

I have posted 'Moth3r' at Electricwest.bandcamp.com, where it's now available as a free download.

Be sure to look for it's (re) release at Archaic Horizon near the end of April. It will also be a free download, but will feature an additional remixes release with it, featuring remixes by Headphone Science, Ten And Tracer, Cheju, Drexon Field, Implex Grace, Counterspark, David Tagg, Coppice Halifax, City Rain, Hecca, and maybe one from me (if so, I'd best get started).

Just a little update.
I do apologize for the ups and downs related to this release. The advanced availability is the least I could do for you...

Hey peeps.
So, recently and unfortunately, Rope Swing Cities has recently decided to shift into solar minimum, and no longer push new releases. We all know how busy life can get, so this is no problem. Many thanks to people who purchased the release this way; I am most grateful for the small sum of money this made me. (Let's just say... mmmm, food that isn't Ramen is good! :)

However, as originally promised, the free download of 'MOTH3R' plus all it's remixes are still coming. I will be releasing these via the Archaic Horizon netlabel sometime around the end of March or beginning of April. Everything will be the same, except there will be a bonus release featuring some killer remixes, and of course, there is the free factor. All in all, 'Moth3r' (though I am so proud of it) is going on several years old, and I will just be relieved when it's finally available to everyone everywhere, so I can move on with my life!

In other news, I have just had two separate and exclusive singles released on some V/A compilations...
The first, 'Ronin' is part of a two-disc cd set, available for purchase on the German label, Envizagae.
The second, 'Crystalline' is a part of the winter-themed IVDT compilation, and is available as a free download from their site.
Check out the Envizagae and IVDT sites, or go to my myspace blog for more info and quick links.

And finally, life in general has kept me pretty busy lately. I am still a full time student, though I won't claim to be doing a stupendous job lately. I am probably destined to be a super super senior, but whatev.
I also (finally) moved out of my house of the last 6 years, which is where I wrote every Electricwest and Eluder album I've ever made, amongst COUNTLESS other memories and experiences. Though I wanted out pretty badly, I also do miss it, and will cherish all the good (and bad) times I had there for the entirety of my life. How the ol "Brickhouse" will be without me I can't say, but I wish it the best, and hope it continues to inspire art from it's residents like it did me... I <3 you, BH!

My new place is small but comfy, and regardless, should help direct me into a new chapter of my life. For this, I am grateful, hopeful, and excited...

**On a final final note, I have three new EW songs (not counting the new singles) that I'm pretty happy with, and I will be investigating the methods for which I will make these available to you asap. But probably not until 'Moth3r' is out for a little longer... you dig?

As usual, mad love to you all for your support.
And lots of love and respect to anyone actually reading this... you are why I continue to do all of this.
:)

Cheers,
Pat

Ahh yes. Summer. My least favorite of seasons.
