Failure Mode is Russell Borogove. Russell likes danceable and/or creepy electronic music, computer programming, and randomness. Failure Mode is the result.


::operator new

::operator new is the first tangible release from Failure Mode in over a decade. This is a 3-track self-produced CD release.

In addition to Russell's own audio software (released under the nom de code Tiny God Software), the music was produced using Synapse Audio Software Orion, Ross Bencina's Audiomulch, Sony Acid, Andreas Ersson's ErsDrums, and Magnus Jonsson/Smartelectronix' Ambience reverb. Oh! And a bass guitar. And a patient wife! And probably some other stuff as well.

Track Listing (low-quality mp3s coming soon):
1. ::operator new / 3:58 / 105 bpm / 2004.2.15
2. No Margin / 5:35 / 68 bpm / 2004.2.10
3. Coast To Coast / 6:20 / 130 bpm / 2002


In an earlier century, Failure Mode existed in a form involving more primitive technology.
