"Pretty Killbots II"

"Pretty Killbots II" [mp3 removed]

A second version of a tune posted at the end of last summer, with a couple of new themes added that fade up about halfway through.
Killbots were the stars of the '80s slasher classic Chopping Mall. Teens stay overnight in a discount furniture store after the shopping center closes, have sex in the showroom beds, and get punished by the mall's new foolproof security system, consisting of impenetrable outer doors and roving, adolescent-slaughtering robots. This is everything you could want in a movie and even includes Paul Bartel and Mary Woronov at the beginning explaining the security features to the mall "suits."

Update: Here are three well-chosen frames from the movie.

2 parts of a T. Hallenbeck demo

"Demomix 1-2" [3.8 MB .mp3]

Tune by Travis Hallenbeck (numbers 1 and 2 in this demo that I made into a stereo, somewhat more loudly-mastered file)
This reminds me of CiM, a musician more active about 10 years ago than recently, whose signature is very sweet pad sounds over nervous staccato beats.

past pic-see abuse

Speaking of pic-see, thanks to Camille for remembering my Nasty Nets post about the "porn pic-see." (I'd forgotten it.) By way of follow-up, never saw that use of my open directories again (knock woodgrain).
