Remedial M-Theory... laboring in electronic obscurity and summer science school since 200
Remedial M-Theory is the work of one guy laboring in obscurity since 2004 with a handful of fans who are loyal and supportive but are outnumbered by the detractors that exist solely in his mind (not saying there aren't detractors outside his mind, just that the ones inside his head are indeed legion). To say he's a bit nuts would be an understatement. For cryin out loud he's in a band with his computer and they spend most of their time arguing over creative differences (mostly the computer saying it should go solo, blah blah...). You might not guess from listening to this so-called music but this guy has a very musical upbringing and a fervent appreciation for all things musical from the beginning of time until the day the music died which incidentally (sorry Don McClain) had less to do with Mick Jagger than it did with with Michael Bolton. Influences range from minimalist composers and cubist painters to the grand operas from the likes of Verdi, Mozart, and The Who. You might not know it from listening to what is here but it's in there somewhere... and if it's not could you at least tell him where his keys are???

Story behind the song
Death Before Ack! - Worm Food © JKS 2007 DBA! is a track I wrote as the first part of "The Dark Triptych" back in the mid-aughts in the days when I didn't know how much I didn't know about electronic music. Despite the inevitability of death the moment it actually comes is generally a complete surprise. This song is supposed to embody the cruelty of that moment, how few are even granted those cinematic last words. Most of us probably won't even manage an "Ack!" so to speak. This song is full of unspoken dreams and barely formed whispers, ideas fading before they get a chance to stretch their legs... all haunted by the ghost of melody that goes mostly unrealized... Hey, I'm not saying I executed it all that well only that those were the thoughts in my head as I worked it all out with a heavy electronic bass and thumping kick. -JKS (Provo, UT Apr 2011)
