Reviewed 2005-10-26
Experimental, tuneless, interestingly textured sound pieces. A few sound “composed” others seem improvised. Introspective head space. Often starting with “found “ bits, always proceeding through lots of processing.

1.Quiet, warbles, lumps of sound on a cool substrate
2.British vocal samples chopped into buzzy mzuik
3.quiet first minute- high pitched drone noise, gets lightly crunchy
4.lots of echo, hollow electronic wind & windstorm
5.muted blips converse
6.short bloopy FM tones of all pitches- tuneless notes
7.menacing soundscape
8.Vocal bubbles on gently rolling tones
