about

"Abandonware is a product, typically software, ignored by its owner and manufacturer, and for which no official support is available" (Wikipedia, 2020)

dogs versus shadows final release of 2020 consists of 6 tracks inspired by the strange concept of abandoned, neglected and no longer supported software that's floating around the internet.

For this album, I've invented the very much tongue-in-cheek genre of 'abandonica' (electronica inspired by abandoned things/places/concepts).
