A thousand thanks go out to the author of the WordPress Audio Player plugin found at 1 Pixel Out. This plugin is one of the cleanest, best-designed and most useful plugins I’ve ever seen — perhaps even the best one I’ve ever seen.
My thanks given, let’s get onto exploiting this newfound power irresponsibly by letting you all listen to an old electronica song I wrote a few years back and recorded early in 2004 after finally buying a proper synthesizer. The song should be so much better — particularly the various very cool ideas in it should have been worked out further and cleaned up –, but I still enjoy listening to it. I hope you all do as well.
The song is called “Heaven Is The Sound Of Children Laughing” and the name I decided at the time to use for my experimentations with electronic music was Siaynoq — chosen both as a hat-tip to all Dune lovers and as a slight joke about the image of ravers as indulging in some sort of ecstatic orgy.
With all that said, I’ll let the music speak for itself.
