Aquarius Records Reviews Terrabyte:
Wow. This is a gorgeous little thing before we even pop it in the player. A fogged plastic 3" soft jewel case, one side a super detailed photo of some sort of brilliant green caterpillar, the other a transparent smear of different greens, bright but strangely muted, revealing the tiny green disc within. The music itself is just as beautiful, thick slabs of post-Autechre skitter and thump, tangled and serpentine, but still somehow soothing and dreamy, the dense convoluted beats and rhythms all wrapped up in warm warped melodies and beautifully creepy atmospheres. Very cinematic and epic. Like some perfect mix of Autechre, Boards Of Canada and Godspeed maybe...
Only 100 copies made. So act fast!

REVIEWS:
"young and ridiculously talented, carson literally grew up in the S.F. scene. He started playing out at 13, and now at the ripe old age of 19 considers himself a veteran. Who are we to argue? Sometimes he collaborates with this mysterious guy to form ilet apt. whatever he's good."
-Dielectric Records
"For those with classification fetishes, Carson Day could easily be filed into a handful of categories: electronic, experimental rock, industrial, or any number of subgenres that sew electronic elements with industrial's heavy, synthesized sounds--the sort often used to create dark listening experiences. Carson Day reminds us of the eccentricities of electronic music."
-Music.Download.Com
"...Stuttery, skittery rhythms over dreamy pastoral backdrops, with hyper-distorted melodies, the occasional grinding, rib cage rattling low-end bass line and bursts of almost jungle peppering these dreamy, late night electronic workouts..."
-Aquarius Records
"Almost commercial, yet overstepping margins most would give wide berth."
-Metamorphic Journeymen e-zine
"Let me sum it up for you, squinting li'l doom chile -- this is electronica, techno, whatever they call it this month, minus all the stupid parts. And really, really well-recorded, too. These people are not fucking around. Of course I'm sure you already have this fine, fine listenable and already know of which I speak, right? Right? You don't? Well, what are you waiting for? Hoo hah...."
-Dead Angel 59 e-zine

The Large Hadron Collider is a new particle accelerator that will collide beams of protons or lead nuclei at close to the speed of light. The collider is expected to create as many as 800 million particle collisions every second. And those collisions are expected to recreate the conditions that existed just after the Big Bang began the rapid expansion and cooling of matter that scientists believe created the universe.
Do you know about this facility and the effect it could have on our lives?
People both inside and outside of the physics community have voiced concern that the LHC might trigger one of several theoretical disasters capable of destroying the Earth or even the entire Universe.
-Creation of a stable black hole
-Creation of strange matter that is more stable than ordinary matter
-Creation of magnetic monopoles that could catalyze proton decay
-Triggering a transition into a different quantum mechanical vacuum

Thanks for the free pussy fingers you gave everyone. ;)
Additionally, thanks for putting on a great performance. Thank your buddy for helping out, too. Some really great compositions and I liked that you guys were really into your performance!
holy crap u guys blew me away last night, beautiful layers and worlds of music and sound, fucking bad ass, i am now a big fan,
thanks for the free pussyfinger cd to, pure stuff i love it
in this new era i look upon thee and feel a wave of molten memory crashing into my frame and knocking me into the void.
carson day, was it not thee who put limbs in my freezer and preserves made from putrid mushrooms under my bed?
remember our frolic, our shattered dreams, returning from the brink of nothing to emerge as warped moments of strange glory as we sipped from the chalice and tossed glass bowls over cliff's edge?
can you recall the time you pushed me into traffic and laughed? as busses and scooters and trucks and other vehicles crushed my artificial frame, i was angry with you. but you knew what was best for me.
oh lamentable planet, the bubbling pools of foamy filth roil and soak the mighty pony with a madness that drags our brains through fires unholy and strange...
oh carson day, our keeper of delightZ, oh wonderous flower of glory that reveals the goo within the folds of our bellies.
carson day! take us home and feed us electric liquid. make us strong.
