Disquiet Junto contributions

A couple of weeks back I started contributed tracks to a thing called the Disquiet Junto.  Mark from the Disquiet website has started setting weekly music-making assignments, basically.  

As you can imagine, the assignments are largely focused on making club bangers, with briefs like "got to fill the dancefloor before midnight on NYE".  

OK, not at all.

New Montano & Jet Jaguar albums this year

Just a bit of advance notice that I'm gearing up for at least 2 new albums this year.  Teaser tracks soon.

Montano's 2nd album is still mostly based around making melodic (or at least harmonious!) music mostly from a single field recording per track, but has quite a different mood from our last album.  The first album was when Shanan and I were both living in Melbourne.  This is a much quieter and sometimes moodier affair, and as well as using field recordings from 3 countries has a few "real" instruments too.
