    We were just in love with this music so much that I needed it to be even more real, so we made a CD :) Of this run, there are going to be about 150 of these available to the general public. The rest are going to every willing non-commercial radio station in the country, because I'm old school like that.

    For the CD we did all the good stuff - it comes in a jewel case, with a 4 page booklet. Inside the booklet features the hands, eyes, and heart of Mell Picco who did the records design work. This CD is everything you'd expect from an electronic music release of the early 90's ;)

about

Pyrrhic, once a moon, now a planet, is the fallen place. A great poet, an elder vt100, once emited this simple and sad construction upon seeing it:

"Pyrrhic, oh... when love died. The only place where hope can truly seem poisonous."

Hundreds of metacycles ago, Pyrrhic was said to host a beautiful and peculiar creative race known as the Artos. Back then the Artos called it Muladhara, which is strangely coincidental to the same concept found in the Humanus texts in the Locrian archives. It was said, the old Pyrrhic, or, I should say Muladhara, would glow deeply red once every cycle when the Artos performed their connection ritual leading the universe in their connection to the lucid pulse.

However, after hundreds of thousands of cycles, the red color slowly changed to brown. None of the Artos really understood why, it all seemed to sudden, however it was gradual over an uncountable number of metacycles. Seemingly, and somehow, a distraction had come and they'd lost their presence. Something dark snuck in and slowly morphed the connection ritual from within, creating a sickness and tainting the Artos.

The Artos, unaware of what had happened, turned against each other. They became a race of warriors, containing an unexplained rage that seemed to do nothing but cost the universe around them. Even the vt100, as they watched this unfold helplessly, was shocked at how such vibrance could fail to pulse. How could something like this happen to a creative race so bold and wonderful?

The Artos, seeking anger, created much fear in the universe. This fear ultimately grew to inspire the universe to do away with the Artos. Imprisoning them for an eternity in the nameless space. Without them, the Artos, their planet could contain no color at all, and fell to a sibilant supple black, with the dire sheen of desperation. It was only when this black color took form, and the Artos delinquency vanquished, that the planet then be renamed, Pyrrhic.

It has forever since been left alone, no one has dared ventured there. Well, except the vt100, driven by a bother they could not yet communicate with.
