Check out PTE017, the Pterodactyl Squad debut from Alterior:

"Try To Smile At Least Once A Day is a selection of tracks from Alterior's previously released album, No Reason To Be Ashamed. The music found on this EP is primarily inspired by the genres of IDM and breakcore, but also draws influence from the harmonies and melodiousness of Super Nintendo-era roleplaying games. There is also the addition of counter-tenor vocals, as well as voice samples, all combining to create 5 tracks which feature a truly unique blend of musical ideas."
