    The pieces become quite spread out now, sometimes a couple done at one time. Each one brings back different memories - a change of house, a change of career, a change of perspective - recorded in different ways - perhaps setting up the portastudio, cheap Casio sampler and synth on a bedroom or living-room floor - gateing the cheap yamaha portatone keyboard through the Korg. Some, no doubt, were a somewhat nostalgic attempt to get back to what I was doing in the 80s.
    So here are the titles. Only a few dates on these last tapes.
    - Babysleep 2 (0:00)
    - A Convergence of Cats (2:30)
    (the Korg MS20 still with me - I didn't sell it until the late 90s....the last I know is that it went to a studio in London, still with the 5X0D able-label stuck on the front!) (22/09/91)
    - M.M.E.World (5:31)
    (from here on I'm using a Yamaha VSS 30 sampling keyboard, which I had honestly forgotten all about! http://www.synthfind.com/category/yamaha/vss-30/ )
    - To Come Upstairs (11:20)
    - The Name Of The Beat (13:56)
    - 'remix' of Feel Love (17:53)
    - Puff, The Magic Sampler (18:31)
    - All In The Mind (19:37)
    - Bit 1 (21:46)
    - Bit 2 (22:09)
    - Technic Idea 1: Shuffle (23:42)
    (jamming on the Technics KN1000, top of the range model at the time, and my first effort to get to grips with understanding a new generation of home keyboard - built in sequencer, panel memories, rhythm pattern composer etc - boy did I get a big headache!)
    - Technic Idea 2: Afrolimba (27:00)
    (using preset rhythms and sounds - MS20 overdub on the first )
    - playing with the sound effects buttons! (30:40)
    - Final untitled bonus track (31:49)
    (I imagine this last track - sequenced on the Technics WSA1, which I bought at a knock-down price from the music shop where I taught the keyboard for 18 years - was recorded in the mid 00s.)

    The End.....?
