Brittle Stars
Another DJ mix done on Ableton, which I kept forgetting to finish. Probably not overly suited to the weather now; it started as one thing and kind of turned into something else. Great records anyway and very pleased with some of the mixing, though the last track is kind of tacked on. It’s only 42 minutes as I didn’t have much time left on SoundCloud. Hope it works. It’s downloadable too.

Re. the picture; it is actually at least two animals – an urchin, and a brittle star that has crawled inside it. (Its arms are sticking out.) There’s another urchin in the background too. Here’s a more typical picture of a brittle star – http://research.myfwc.com/gallery/image_details.asp?id=23321
Yes, a dead urchin and a live one behind; maybe some anemones and coral too? I thought of the title Brittle Stars before I found a picture. I liked that particular image mainly for the colours and because it was easy to crop into a square
