10 Neurotics : "I set out to create an album that looks at our sexuality, obsessions and fetishes with a mature (rather than sensationalized) eye. Our life is a constant churning of desires, sometimes overtaking us - more often subverted, submerged & repressed. Wherein other albums I have written hint at sexuality, this time I wanted to directly confront reality: Who are we when the disguise is stripped away?" - Sam
"Marmalade Cat" is about a woman who finds comfort in her second skin of marmalade fur. Vocals : Laurie. Bass : Brian. Guitar & electronis : Sam. Goddess Narcissa: model & stylist. Shot & Edited by Sam.

On the inner sleeve of your "Ashes in the Brittle Air" album is a Quote by Nietzsche "You must wish to consume yourself in your own flames for how could you become new unless you had first become ashes." Can you tell me which Nietzsche work this is from? As an ASTROLOGER, I Use this Quote (THANK YOU FOR PULLING IT OUT!) to describe the energy of PLUTO or SCORPIO All the TIME! XOXO, MoonCat! www.CatOvertheMoon.com

I find your Music Stands out from any other I have ever listened to in my lifetime, It is its own genre. I enjoy it So much I have included it in Many of my stage shows. Thank you for the invite and bless you and your work.
Hey Sam! I'm so glad you're still out there making music. We had this same alien discussion back in maybe 1998 with me pining over our position way out here in the distant arm of a spiral galaxy and no one would ever find us. Sigh. Anyway, I'm in FL now and still loving all the Projekt recordings. Thanks for being who you are and for the note. I hope you and your family are well. - Deborah
