One of a handful of loose ends left adrift in the confusing tail end of our May Mistigris Music Madness spree, composer King Arthur (or |(ing /|rthur as he styled himself – that should be a pointy bracket, not a paren, but HTML – or, briefly, Black Rain) had a music disk, “Corroded”, that has since been lost – and which we are in a position to throw back into circulation. Joining our ranks as part of the first incarnation of Fire, when they merged into Mistigris in Feb-March 1995, while all their visual artists quickly wriggled their way out of our roster this lone music tracker remained, drifting away in the middle of things during the great BBS decline and then finding his way back to us by the end – and beyond, putting together and releasing this music disk in May of 2000, after we ourselves had, if not exactly closed up shop, at least … given up hope.



Corroded contains nine songs (one of which includes lyrics!) composed in Impulse Tracker – as best as we can tell, all by him – and hopefully this time it doesn’t disappear again! Hats off to |(ing /|rthur – wherever he is – for we’re giving your songs one more trot around the track! (Who knows, there’s a very good chance that they’ll reach a wider audience now than they ever did in 2000!)
