the main intention of this youtube-account is to feature mixes and tracks somewhere between deep-minimal-dub techno/house and sounds from detroit/chicago.
well, it's sometimes hard to categorize and some tracks won't fit into that pattern at all. let's eclecticize a bit. anyway, it's music that i would like to share with others. constructive comments are highly appreciated!

track: mariopaint
artist: ray tracing
label: irdial discs (55 ird com 3)
year: 1995
taken from the LP "the Electric family - mariopaint". the irdial label describes the very interesting intention behind this release as following:
"For this, the first set of Electric Family releases, the brief was to compose a 5 minute piece using only the Nintendo Super Famicom game console, running the Mariopaint cartridge. Mariopaint is, as you would suspect, a paint program. It also has a triphonic sequencer that allows you to compose music on a stave. [...] Each of the contributing artists was allowed only one audio effect, and each piece was recorded directly onto master tape. Editing with a razorblade was also made available."
