Unfinished projects and drafts
[...]
This album is what it is. Just little things that didn't fit anywhere or discarded projects.
—C418, Bandcamp
The title says all. These are just little things that couldn’t find a proper place elsewhere. So now they’re cluttered in this sort of mini album. Excuse the random clipping at two points of it. It’s really just little things.—C418, Old Blog
I think "little things" is about 70% only okay. Hehe.—C418, Twitter
kthx—C418, description for all tracks, Bandcamp

familiar faces

|---|---|
| Length | 2:57 |
| Bandcamp | $1 or more |
Familiar faces is a song that I created when trying out my brother’s Virus TI. Which explains why there is a lot of clicky-ness. I didn’t quite figure out how to get around the limitations of the synth and I kind of overwhelmed it.—C418, C418.org
a little thing I made on christmas eve. I made it to learn how to operate the Access Virus TI. Glitchy little synthesizer. It loves to do a lot of popping noises whenever it does too much.—C418, Soundcloud
Trivia
- Despite the SoundCloud cover being the ezo logo, this song has no known connection to the game.

|---|---|
| Length | 2:22 |

I have NO recollection of creating “It’s complicated.” It’s clearly my style and I swear I made it. But I don’t remember doing so.—C418, C418.org
Yeah it is.—C418, SoundCloud
Trivia
- This track is a continuation of "familiar faces", albeit with a much darker tone

Title says all—C418, SoundCloud
“hotel music” is a little thing that I created when I was dead sick off a flu I got in Stockholm. I couldn’t really get outside, so I tried to kill time by making music.—C418, C418.org
Trivia
- Was formerly uploaded to Soundcloud[2]
- The cover for this track is a screenshot of the FM8 plugin by Native Instruments.

A short tidbit of bullshit—C418, SoundCloud
“sod” is a style of music that I used to do a lot around that time. Basically take a general mood and jam on it until the song gets too long, haha.—C418, C418.org
Hm, sod has a little (fake) clipping at the beginning... well... it's just for two seconds, so what gives—C418, Twitter
I always wanted to make a progessive electronic album. Sort of like this song here, but a complete album like this—C418, Twitter
Connections
- sod appeared dissociated on C418's old blog. It is notably louder than the version of the song released in the blog.
Trivia
- At nearly 10 minutes, "sod" is the longest track on little things.
- Was formerly uploaded to Soundcloud[3]
heyhey

Trivia
- One of the tracks was intended to be used in Minecraft but was scrapped for being too loud. [4]
