	David Last vs. ZULU \| Musically Massive \| Staubgold \| 2009 Full length CD / Digital More abstract digital dancehall stylings for Staubgold label. Out in the USA through Forced Exposure. A collaboration between NYC and Chicago, eagerly awaited by heads in the know, and ready to bang for summer. Happily mashing up club music, reggae music, storytelling, and sly humor. Referencing signposts from the past, but quietly pushing onward into new territory.
	David Last vs. ZULU \| Musically Massive EP \| Staubgold \| 2008 Vinyl EP / Digital Abstract digital dancehall stylings for Staubgold label. Out in Europe on vinyl and digital download. Full length CD coming this winter, followed by remix vinyl thereafter.
	David Last \| BounKs \| Konque \| 2008 EP Maximal hypnotic dirty synth music for techno label Konque!
	Konque \| Sinking Basement \| Konque \| 2008 EP Strange techno; funky oddball sound design glitchworld for the dancefloor.
	Someone Else \| Pencaps Remixed \| Foundsound \| 2007 Funky Fromage: David Last's Cheezwiz Remix of Someone Else's "Funky Fromage," keepin' it Cheezy. Bizarre vocal blasts and zappy lazer gun sounds.
	Royale / Attentat \| Falling \| Dope Recordings \| 2007 David Last Remix Remix with a creepy ticking voice. Comes startlingly close to the buzzy synth madness of acid tracks.
	Flacker \| Stucco \| Dope Recordings \| 2007 David Last Remix A rather stripped-down remix for Flacker!
	David Last \| The Itchy Family \| Wolf + Lamb Music \| 2007 EP Remix mashup of two Wolf+Lamb label tracks: The Denver Family, and The Itch. Choice sound bits from these two tracks are lovingly chopped into small bits and resequenced to bring the offkilter funk! Check it out at Wolf + Lamb Music.
	David Last \| Bubble Tea \| Dope Recordings \| 2007 EP Dancefloor music made of choppy sample salad. A funky edge... is it some kinda latin or reggae rhythm?... umm, well, yes exactly. Remix by Royale, and tasty minimal-er dub version by Royale and David. Check it out at Dope Recordings.
	David Last \| Narrabeen Darjeeling \| Wolf + Lamb Music \| 2007 EP Dancefloor mayhem. Metallic hypnotic beauty, sly synth stabs, and a snare that will knock your head off. A secret weapon, y'all DJs... Check it out at Wolf + Lamb Music.
	Pocket Pet \| Krust EP \| Geometric Deck \| 2007 EP Return of Pocket Pet! The sounds of dad cooking a blueberry pie and a pizza pie. All sounds cut up and cooked into a new concoction. Dance music for Geometric Deck label (Osaka). Monster rumble bass madness with krazy clicky klacks. Remixes by Segeke (Osaka) and Nicholas Sauser (NYC). Check it out at Geometric Deck.
	David Last \| WhatWhat? EP \| Unfoundsound \| 2006 EP An EP for Philadelphia's Unfoundsound Records. Oddball techno for dancing or headphone meditation. Kicks off with the track "Animal Hybrids," a funny and slightly disturbing collage of animal voices over a solid dancefloor track. Moves on into dubbier spaces with "Sporty Ankles" and "Where It Falls," before remixes by So Inagawa, Ditch, and Suz bring it back into full-on dancefloor territory.
	Pocket Pet (David Last / Segeke) \| WeSendIt \| Goosehound \| 2006 12" Debut of the new Pocket Pet bizniz... David and Japanese producer Segeke come correct on 3 new dancefloor trax. The title of the e.p., "WeSendIt," comes from the way the music was made... by sending computer files back and forth between Osaka and New York using the website "YouSendIt." Remix by The Suffragettes (Nagoya/Tokyo Japan). More info HERE.
	Various Artists \| Minlove06 \| Minlove/Goosehound \| 2006 Compilation A downloadable compilation for Minlove.net, available HERE. A label comp, put together by Goosehound. Pocket Pet contributes the track "Noctiluca Falls," a bouncy dubby tech track with a sense of humor and a distinctly New York edge.
	Forthcoming: Audio.NL remixes \| untitled \| Audio.nl \| 2006 12" Microsamples of a track by Andreas Tilliander, suspended on a dark latticework of mech-reggae rhythms and explosive piano percussion. Thhis vinyl has been pressed but may never see distribution due to an artist issue with one or more of the artists on the project. I don't have any further details. I'll post an mp3 here if the vinyl is not released.
	Kammerflimmer Kollektief Remixed \| Matt (David Last's Doki Doki Rock Mix) \| Staubgold \| 2005 12" A syncopated beat somewhere between reggae and r&b ticks away, as eerie orchestral textures swirl and sway. Also remixes by Jan Jelinek, Aoki Takamasa, and Noze.
	David Last \| The Push Pull \| The Agriculture \| 2005 CD Booty-shakin' beats plus psych-beauty plus a book of photos and illustrations to top it off. The Push Pull compiles tracks from Badlands and Posca Kid EP (most are specially remixed for the CD) plus new tracks not available on vinyl, into an album with its own character. 49 minutes of sunset-drenched rooftop-ridmz that slip that ghost back in the machine. Second pressing now available!
	David Last \| Posca Kid \| The Agriculture \| 2004 12" EP More of the extra organic electronix. Look out for the undertow. Side A kicks off with "The Push Pull," some crazy ghostly backwards tones and that secret recipe super-swing. "Makeout Stakeout" steams up your windshield (you are going to listen to this in a car sometime, aren't you?) with a sexy vocal by Eliane Amherd. Some beautiful melodies steal in at the end and peck you on the cheek, before you have to turn the vinyl over. "Posca Kid" unwinds and evolves through 8 minutes of bounce, melodica, flutes, and arranged strings. A meandering line through patches of sunlight and moonlight.
	Antfactor \| Lazarus (Pocket Pet Remix) \| WaveTek \| 2005 12" Remix of Antfactor's Tek-house track "Lazarus," which is guaranteed to wipe the sleep out of the eyes of those still standing at 5:30am at an outdoor party. Just as the sun peeks over the hill, there's some lovely synthesizer washes...
	David Last \| Badlands \| The Agriculture \| 2004 12" EP Booty beats grounded in reggae but ending up elsewhere. Asian metal percussion, frayed trumpet bleats, rhythmic vocal blabbage, and other bizarre tones create a detailed textural jigsaw puzzle o'funk. Guests Yusuke Yamamoto (Golden Monkeys), Michiko Takatani (ex-Ne-Ne), and CX Kidtronik (Deuce Gangsta) get blended with the rest. Fun and hypnotic.
	BBQ Beets 2: Return of the Yams \| The Agriculture \| 2004 Compilation Features a compilation-only mix of Secret Society with lush psychedelic ending. Also features work by DJ Olive, qpe, DJ Wally, Once11, Badawi, Nettle, Sub Dub, Lunchbox and Lloop.
	David Last \| Cat Head \| Tour Promo \| 2003 CD Full Length Sold in Japan on tour dates. Contains the suite "Jiji/Sasquatch/Jiji Sasquatch/Jiji Cat Head," with Jiji Cat Head remix by Michael Berk.
	Fuzzy Boombox volume 1 \| Fuzzy Box \| 2002 Compilation Features Handheld Soundsystem track "Vausu." Also tracks by B. Fleischmann, E*Vax, Dietrich Schoenemann, Fidget, Zipperspy, and Miki Kuwabara.
	Particles 1 \| Genuine Particle \| 2001 Compilation (Producer) A document of the international home studio underground from the U.S.A., Japan, U.K. and Germany. David assembled short (sub 2-minute) pieces from 32 artists from all over the world. 67 minutes and 49 tracks. The flow of these short bits was carefully arranged to lend a feeling of natural cohesion to a wide array of sounds, from completely abstract noise blasts to booming beats to acoustic instrumental music, to a-capella voice. Featuring work by Lucky Kitchen, United States of Belt, Zipperspy, Tyro, Immersion, Geoffrey Graham, Elegant Too, Charles Cohen, Heartworm, Ron Anderson, Echo, Sporangia, Yusuke Yamamoto, Jun Matsue, Vapourspace, A.Cut F, Anhedonia, Mark Wagner, The Furniture, Antfactor, Aki Onda, Plazm, Miki Yui, Michael Hanna, Bradford Reed, Ant Explosion Sound System, Cave, Clue Free, Circuit Redux, Criterion and Doily, Trudy Feikert, Takuya, Benton-C, Rev Olo Cien, Ayaschool, Mika Tanaya, and more.
	Plazm \| Vari-Speed Error King \| Plasmalab \| 2001 CD Full Length Experimental soundscapes as "Plazm." Gritty sounds and beautiful tones that originated as accidental noise from the computer's audio bus during audio calculations.
	Cave \| The Golden Age of Home Computing \| Elemo \| 2000 CD Full Length 8-bit action and Hi-Fi audio destruction, over Jeep beats. "With an eye on Germanic minimalism... [Shows] kinship to Mouse on Mars or Slicker. ...Entertaining with every index mark." -Copper Press
	Harmony Plan \| Rhythm-Sha \| 2000 Compilation Japanese compilation of melodic instrumental music. As "Cave," the track "Super Pixel Gun." more 8-bit melodies and Jeep beats.
	The Plans \| Bloodlink \| 1998 Compilation As "Somnaut," Track "Shifting and Burning." Featuring vocalist Jane Lecroy. Split EP also features Spook Engine and King Missile.
	Somnaut \| S/T \| Plasmalab \| 1997 CD EP Cream of the crop of early studio recordings by Somnaut, a band with Jane LeCroy on vocals and Aaron Harder on video. These tracks stand on their own without the projected video score and stage show that accompanied them in live performance.
