    Hey folks. conelrad here. It’s conelcast time and I am here with the goods. This one is kinda the third part of a loose and unofficial triptych of tracks with a faintly dark jazz / downtempo breakbeat mood that began with track 10 (Perfect Information Games) and continued with track 28 (Imperfect Competition). I’ve been thinking about this for a while and I’m really pleased with the result. I hope you like it too. Please stay as safe as you can and enjoy. \|/

    Thanks so much for listening and don’t forget to follow me on twitter @conelraduk and subscribe, if you haven’t already, to the Patreon, for higher quality versions of the tracks! Still just three bucks US for 2 tracks a month (though the window for getting on at this price is closing…) There’s extra stuff there too!

    There are other ways, including free ways, that you can help too — please see below!

    Bandcamp

    I have about six albums of music at conelrad.bandcamp.com. They’re mostly shorter tracks, but these are the albums that inspired conelcast (because people told me that they listened to them while working)/

    You can pay whatever you like for them. Some people have done this already (thank you so much).

    Free ways to support!!!!!

    If you know artists, coders, creatives or open-plan office workers of any kind who could be interested, do let them know about conelcast. Also, if you know of anywhere I could recommend the podcast — popular blogs/sites for artists and other creatives, for instance — do let me know. You can email me at conelrad@munchhouse.com or get me on Twitter at conelraduk.

    You can join the conelrad mailing list here. That’s the best way to keep updated with conelcast and other conelrad projects.

    Hey everyone. Here’s some downtempo drama for you; hope you enjoy it. I thought maybe it might be a bit distracting for conelcast but oddly it isn’t; it helped me a lot while working from home this week (yes, I road-test conelcast eps regularly!). I also realised it’s conelcast’s second birthday! Which had slipped by me, because, well, things are very odd right now and there’s a lot on my mind, as I’m sure is the case with everyone. Anyway, stay safe, and, if you can, stay inside.

    This one is mellow and downtempo. Stick with it though, it does have a groove, and it does develop. It also has one of my fave ever self-concocted synth sounds (the kinda wooden-sounding synth flourish).

    It has been a very hard week so I’m hoping that this will help you as much as it’s helped me (listening to the drafts as I often do).

    Thank you to everyone for listening, and remember, if you feel like two albums’ worth of music per month is worth the price of one cup of coffee, please consider joining the conelrad Patreon here. You get higher-quality, sting/intro-free versions of the songs! And another free short track!

    conelcast episode 028: Imperfect Competition

    Man, this one was a lot of work. I really hope you like it. It’s kinda sombre and downbeat; I hope that doesn’t mess with anyone too much. I just really liked the cinematic mood coming out of the song and had to follow it where it went.

    conelcast is free, but is a lot of hard work and costs money to do and to host. Here’s how you can support it either with money or your recommendation!

    There is now a conelrad patreon! If you like what I’m doing, I urge you to check it out. If you’re able to chip in a few bucks per month, you’ll get higher-quality, intro-and-sting-free versions of every single full episode, as well as a short bonus track. Become a subscriber and you’ll be helping me to make more and better music. Thank you!

    The main fortnightly episodes will remain free for the forseeable future.
