about

This LP explores, under a synthpop disguise, the idea of being half of oneself, like Aristophan poetically put it in Plato's Symposium. It's a nice idea. Now, can you fill the empty space with music ?

This extended edition was previously available on Wormhole World (UK) as two separate entities:

As a limited CD for the LP versions (before the remasters)
wormholeworld.bandcamp.com/album/half

And as a DL for the remixes:
wormholeworld.bandcamp.com/album/half-remixes
Many thanks to all the artists who contributed, and special thanks to Paul Wormhole.

"Realize" was also released as a single on TONN recordings (UK), and "Mine" was released first on the "Fast Forward" TONN compilation under the "Ruzé" alias :
ruze-music.bandcamp.com/track/realize?label=3248110303&tab=music
tonnrecordings.bandcamp.com/album/fast-forward
Many thanks to Mary McIntyre.

This extended edition contains one song ("Back") that was not included in the original LP.

Mono
by Shitao

supported by 21 fans who also own “Half (Extended Edition)”

Far from lackadaisical or categorically "chill", Shitao's Mono treasures space and knows exactly how to manage its presence in broad, lavish, but not necessarily bombastic rhythms. Matt DeMello (himself)
