Who doesn't like mazes? Here's a real-life maze with some special imputor? buddies lost somewhere inside!
"In conjunction with San Diego Contemporary Art Fair and Arts Month San Diego, Space 4 Art will invite the public to roam a maze of 35 individual artist studios, installations, and music stages filled with zithers, home-made synthesizers, toy pianos, and custom-hacked pianos. Meet the artists. Hear some music. See the studios. Check out the show in the gallery."
Aspects of Physics will be able to be found somewhere in the maze, their first performance in over a year.
It happens September 4th @ Space 4 Art - 325 15th Street, San Diego, 92101

Tony Palmasani from Red Stars Theory plays guitar on this record. Original Vells Member Adam Howery came into the studio to lay down the Bass tracks. We are stoked about this record.

THis week the almost completly sold out DJs on Strike 12" is a pick on
turntablelab.com Grab one from turntable lab before they are all gone...!! ?? they also wrote this review: "It happens to the best of em. Woodman and K.Lim, one time downtempo-loving Lab interns, got seduced by the Roc and his big money gigs, trading in their MoWax and fake Bape (looking at you Woodman) for AV8s and bpm stickers. These days, if you want to follow in their footsteps, you’ll need to be able to toss not only the commercial set, but the tightly mixed rock set. Here's where this record comes in. No more sloppy switches to get "Teen Spirit" into the mix. The DJs On Strike have added beats, done some club friendly re-editing, and most importantly added mixable intros and outtros. The clueless wall streeters won't know what the fuck hit em. This is awesome. The best part is that the original rock feel is kept intact, this ain't no trance cinema bitch! "Smells Like(1)" is the easy pick, but I'm predicting the "Lithium" remix(2) is the one that's gonna smell it up." and there are sound clips./.....

Go see the new Russel Crowe movie "Master and Commander" or whatever it is called, you will see imputor? cohort WANK CHOPS star in about 1.5 seconds of the film. in his 1.5 seconds of fame, you will see wank chops' face, swiftly followed by an elbow smashing into it! Wank Chops was going to be the star of the big battle scene at the end, but the pussy director cut all the bloody fight out to bring the rating from an R down to a PG-13. What a gyp.

call it like something from calculator man & hangar's debut EP "it's andersen, not anderson bytch!" will be featured in the upcoming video/DVD from
foundation skateboards entitled "
the good times are killing me". it'll be alongside tracks by mudhoney, sebadoh, modest mouse, and others. when's the last time you heard an "idm" act doing acoustic guitar jammery? buy it when it comes out and all the punk skater kids on your block will think you're cool!
p.s., calculator man & hangar have begun work on their next LP ... watch out, it's going to break your balls!

since we at imputor? like to try new things, we are going to do a limited edition pre-release of this record. 100 hand numbered copies to the first 100 web customers, starting now. by pre-release, we mean pre-press also, meaning that we will ship out all 100 copies before we send the promotional copies to the press. So the first 100 people will hear it before anyone else. And as a special
bonus for you early customers, the 23rd, 66th and 99th order placed will be free (we will give u your money back, because you were lucky). The packaging is extremeley snazzy, with a silk screened pressed CD with 15 fresh as fuck tracks tracks mastered by qp(with one track co-produced by plastiq phantom) @ the velcro lounge. The price is $10(us) + $2 shipping for the US, and $4 for the rest of the world. You can pay via
PayPal.com by sending funds to d@imputor.com or you can send a check or money order to:

the snodgrass has posted a dj mix set of semi-hardcore/hardcore tracks on his website. you can download it
here (46MB).
update: the snodgrass is just a dj maniac these days.. he just threw together an hour and a half set of idm/ambient/downtempo/jazzy/indie rock-ness for you all to enjoy.. instead of me wasting space here, you should head on over to www[dot]thesnodgrass[dot]com and download all this shit before he gets sued and has to take them all down. track lists are available on his pages.

network solutions stole plastiqphantom.com from us.. we recommend you boycott them and use http://www.opensrs.org/ instead.
in the meantime while we're fighting to get the domain back, you can access the qp site directly at http://www.imputor.com/qp ...

want to get your hands on some official plastiq phantom material (even though you can get the mp3s for free)? go here to buy 2 of the comps (free activation series vol 2 & standard sounds vol 1) featuring the qp tracks
select imputor? and
a simple chaos respectively:
Novarum.co.uk
snatch them up before qp is (more) famous, and sell them on ebay in 5 years for a 458% profit.
also... rumor has it that the plant pressing his full length enjoy the art of lying down (sweet mother) got jacked in the seattle quake, so its release has been delayed.

diagram of suburban chaos' (dovsc's) recerd is in z final stages -- eek... we decided that it needs to be 16 tracks instead of 13 - the plan is to press it on CD, and if the demand is quite high for the vinyl, we will press that, but there are already plans for a post "status negatives" dovsc 12 inch, with new material not on full length CD-- back to the status of status - dovsc has to get z last track wired 1058 miles to me, for the final mastering - then the album goes to the pressing plant -- then we get copies, then z publicist (our boy frank - who was the publicist for bogdan raczynski's first album, and some other rephlexers, and some ninja tuners -- he also helped work OK Computer) works that shit, and gets our boy diagram some press - the street date for the diagram is SPRING 2001
oh yeah, the plastiq phantom LP "enjoy the art of lying down" comes out on Sweet Mother Recordings Feburary 2001 in association with imputor? distributed in Japan, Europe, New Zealand, and the states...and then some... xoxo, d.
