Happy New Year! 

12/22/24

My new EP length album Happybotz drops tomorrow (12/23/24)!

https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/thomasayresol/happybotz-2

The Happybotz EP will be available as an online release to start. The album will be available on CD around mid January 2025. I hope to have more details on that soon. 

I had an issue with an online retailer so I had to pull down my most recent single ‘Flashpoint’. I've corrected the issue and I hope to have Flashpoint back up as a single as soon as possible. If this has caused any confusion or inconvenience I apologize.

Another throwback single is on the way!

Thomas Ayresol - Unit 71

8/15/24

Back in April of this year I posted the video for Aggrandized Chaos, a song I cowrote with the composer and electronic artist Cosmic Contessa. Check it out below. Keep in mind this is the first thing we had ever worked on together. I was really impressed with how it turned out.

 

I recently released two new videos for my song They Speak To Me. For the first time I have brought in another ai video artist to create a surreal, dystopian nightmare for one of my songs. I found Brain Plague designs on TikTok and was impressed with their intensely liquid, ever evolving and high resolution ai anmimated videos. Check out the widescreen YouTube video below:

As my social media becomes more relevant to how I share my music and videos, connect with fans and learn about other bands and artists, I've had to think about this website and what the future looks like.

First let me say I'm committed to this website. I plan on keeping it active and online.

When I started this website in 2012 I thought it would be a central hub for all my various activities. Music, Videos, Blog, Merch, etc. A lot has changed since then. I am uploading content regularly now to YouTube, Discord and TikTok. Each of these platforms has their own advantages and annoying quirks. I have become accustomed to using them and have some exclusive content on each platform. 

So I've decided to change the focus of this website to that of an archive. A resource for fans as a place to find my photos, songs and videos. Also a place to find links to whatever social media I'm using currently, as that can change from time to time.

So it has been too long since I have posted here. In the future I might not list every video here on the home page anymore. I've been trying to grow my social media more actively this year so it might be more helpful to list my current social media links.

My YouTube is the best place to see my videos when they first drop. Please consider subscribing to my YouTube channel. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5MDsN9zurWlL2KO3txmgWw 

Recently I joined Discord which is the place I can easily interact with people and post frequent updates on my videos and music, what I'm listening to and other topics like electronic music, experimental music and AI art. https://discord.gg/JWjNuVpy

Most recently I joined tiktok and started posting short videos. https://www.tiktok.com/

Last week I added another Deep Cut video - "Sinking Ships Are Always Loaded" from the Transport Wars EP (CD, 2007)

Just a quick reminder... don't forget about the site-wide player at the bottom right of the screen.  You can see the song title with the play button in the right corner.  Hit play and you will hear a site-exclusive playlist with several tracks that are only available for listening here.  Check back from time to time as I do add a track or two now and then.

I've added a new page on the website for /deep-cut-videos

This is where I will put the archive finds and tracks from my earlier releases.

The first song is a track from the cassette tape release Pilots Who Drink Lose All (1997) - Breaking Free

Deep Cut Videos will be more minimal in nature and will feature photos from around the time the tracks were recorded and/or released.  Check back now and then, I'll be adding more tracks to this page over the next several months.

Happy New Year everyone! 

Enjoy this live track from 4/14/07 @ notsuoh (Houston, TX) turned into a new video featuring pics taken at the show.  Did you play Doom 3 back in the day?  If so this live track will ring true.

More archive audio tracks to be combined with archive pics (and possibly some new imagery) to create a few upcoming videos!  Let's raid the Ayresol archives and see what we find.

Previous CD release

invalid lot number (2022)

This is an EP length CD.  It features 6 tracks that explore electronica and avant-garde territory, with a bit of raw edge.  You can check out 3 of the songs from this CD on the site-wide music player (look at the bottom right of the screen).

I support UKRAINE

Ukraine is a soverign and free democratic country. It has the right to choose its own government and can join NATO if it so wishes. Russia has no right to invade Ukraine. I admire the courage and strength of both the Ukraine military and civilians stepping up to defend their country!
