gooey loose tribal polyrhythmic psychedelica that stomps, whirrs, and plods, growing in strength and intensity. can't even be sure what the instruments are, and how the sounds came about, but this sounds mostly organic, with real instruments & voices. a dubby, stomping pulse, with strange toy sounds. would be great at the frisco freakout. made by the all time great label not not fun. all tracks are winners. fcc clean. 33 RPM. all tracks are rad but some are more equal than others.

SIDE A
1- swooshy echoey chamber, tribal percussion, shakers & big psychedelic circular freakout. warbly, wierd winding folk bagpipish melody underneath the goo.
2- clickety clack percussion w/ guitar plods, & wild synthline. slow burn
3- funky guitarbounce turns into swelling organ patterns & an explosion of melodic hypnotic cacophony
SIDE B
((((((1)))))- super hypnotic polyrhythmic handrums from the base of this rad track, as staccato guitar punctuation, psychedelic synth flushes & dub effects weave their way in. a delight.
2- long form droning, twisting, whirring, rising, falling psychedelic epic that goes all over the map and hits this major ritualistic rising trance. you want to play this.
