It’s done.
The Canadian release will be at the Kinetik Festival in Montreal, May 15th.
The American release will be at The Darkroom in Chicago, May 11th, where I’ll be playing a live Ad·ver·sary set with Cyanotic.
(We’ll also do an Ottawa release event of some kind after Kinetik – details to come.)
restraint.org is a loose collection of writing, links, ravings, photos, news, fiction, and bad poetry by Jairus Khan. This website has been here (off and on) for ten years or so, and was around in various other forms for three or four years before that.
I spend most of my off-hours working (in Ottawa, Canada) to promote underground arts and media, and trying to keep independent music from being smothered by an anachronism popularly known as ‘the industry’. I DJ weekly, promote concerts/festivals regularly, make beep-beep noises in an industrial-metal band, and release CC-licensed albums for my industrial-slash-experimental-electronic project Ad·ver·sary, which sounds something like robots fucking to My Bloody Valentine.
When I’m not working with, promoting, listening to, or writing music, I design very angry websites, flyers, book jackets, and the sort for various arts projects. I supplement my music/design income (roughly enough to buy a pocketful of buttons a month) by developing counter-hacking courses and moonlighting as a web coordinator for the man.
I also bake very tasty cookies.

woooooooooo!!!! :D
Awesome, Jai, Awesome.
I was just putting together elements of my set list for this weekend (which includes Dresden) when I read this.
I’m spinning at ReVamp the Sunday of Kinetik weekend – look forward to having your new CD in hand for then.
Thanks!
I have such a love/hate relationship with Dresden. I wish I could’ve gotten it to a state where I was happy enough with it to put it on Bone Music.
I’ve been working on a thoroughly remixed version of Dresden that I’m hoping to have ready for the remix EP coming in the fall, though. It’s really clean, and really heavy.
See, now you’ve given me a music woody.
I can’t wait to hear it. Dresden and No Exit were the two tracks on International that really caught my ear when I first listened to it. I can’t wait to hear what you do with Dresden.
No Exit and Dresden were the two songs fighting for the last slot on Bone Music — I spent some time on both of them, and I ended up really happy with how No Exit turned out. Dresden (and Darker) will definitely see a release — it’s just going to take some time to make it sound like it deserves to sound.
brilliant!! :D
congrats!
w00t!
Yay, congrats!!!
Outstanding, hoping to attend Kinetik depending on funds.
Thanks!
Also, welcome back to livejournal! I guess ‘cheesewheel’ is out of commission?
I didn’t even realize that account was still open. I have no idea what the password is, and I don’t have that associated e-mail address anymore, so yeah out of commission.
Awesome
If I’m in Ottawa during when you do the release here, I am going to try to get out of my house to be there, and I definitely think I will have to get myself a copy.
