Your track "Cybernetics" is honestly really good and will likely be on repeat for some time going forward. Reminds me a little bit of Lemon Jelly.

I am really liking the track "Aftermath" off your latest album. it's really, really, good. Gives me some nice Tron and Blade Runner vibes.

As with anything that has to do with Graphene: Fantastic, happy to hear, but let's see how it goes with more testing and if it's manufacturable. I haven't seen a successful long-term application yet and they've been talk

Every time another post comes up about this I hate to the bearer of bad (good?) news, but the entire concept is predicated on the fact that it increases risk of colorectal cancer by 18%. That doesn't mean your chance of cancer is 18%,

Absolutely. Both in a positive way, and a negative. Positive: it's allowed me to be more analytical in my relationships, work, and thinking. I tend not to care for others interactions, but not in a way that removes the empathetic respo
