My Nth Bit of Strange in Umpteen Years
''My Nth Bit of Strange in Umpteen Years'' is a performance-only album by Scottish singer-songwriter King Creosote, debuted in October 2009, at Fence Records' Hallowe'en Homegame Festival. Described as a "celebration of community, intimacy, exclusivity, rarity and physical artefact,"〔 the album is not available in any physical form, and was performed seven times, throughout March 2010, on the condition that audience members record the album on whatever recording device they own. ''The List'' stated that, "King Creosote won’t release these songs commercially. Audience members, however, have his blessing to share their personal copies."〔
The album features "Bats in the Attic", which would subsequently appear on Creosote's Mercury Prize-nominated collaboration with Jon Hopkins, ''Diamond Mine''.
==Background==
Before its debut, Creosote stated, "Since 2005, I’ve watched my profile go up, my record sales go down, and my live audiences go down – despite there being more copies of my records on computers. I realised I had to make a stand, and I came up with an album that people won’t have to buy, but will have to hear live to fully appreciate. I’d love for the songs to become popular, and for me to take the show further afield, but because the album will change from one rendition to the next, I’m also hoping to attract the collectors. Plus it’ll test whether copying music for free really does make for larger audiences."〔
Creosote elaborated further, "Since the release of ''Flick the Vs'' in April, I’ve written ten new songs for an album that, for various reasons, I’d rather not record and release in the usual way. Instead I’ve come up with this idea of a live album. () Seven performances for forty people at a time over the course of three days."〔
