So, a few months back, an editor friend emailed me asking if he could interview me via email for the cover story he was doing on Stuff Magazine Philippines’ August 2005 issue. He wanted me to talk about mp3s, QED Records and the future of music.

::::MUTATIS MUTANDIS MAKES #9 IN TOP 25 LOCAL ALBUMS OF 2003::::

Jan 20.04.

Reviewer Cris Ramos of The Manila Times places Mutatis Mutandis in the #9 spot on his list of 25 best local albums.

“9). Acid 42, Mutatis Mutandis (self-produced). A versatile release that captures the different textures and nuances of electronic music. Proof that you can load up all the software and the hardware you can find, but in electronica and any other musical genre, the most state-of-the-art musical gadget is the human brain.”

Valdellion (sic) illustrated the use of Acid42 (sic), a digital compositing program similar to Photoshop where an image is composed by manipulating its various layers.
