snw – music at a distance 270 (One Zero Music)

Label Description:

This is a particularly slow performance. I’d gone into it somewhat sleep-deprived, though by the third and fourth pieces, I was getting energy back from the music, enough energy to leave more space and allow the rests to speak. Thank you to the audience for staying with me.

The hollowbody Univox vibrates quite a lot–there’s a lot of air in there. Consequently, there’s a lot of air in these timbres: French horn, muted trumpet, accordion, glass harmonica timbres. This one’s a step toward a collaboration with silence.

The titles this week are references to the visual art of Louise Blyton. Thank you for listening!

Tape Loop Orchestra – (Artefacts (Equations (Replicas))) [Self-Released]

Label Description:

(Artefacts (Equations (Replicas))) is the third volume of the four part series.

The audio archaeology of the TLO archive continues. Outtakes, experiments and live jams from the past six years have been collaged together to form new works that are free from the conceptual restraints of the more focused album projects. A more intimate, playful and perhaps more emotional side is on display across the series. Collect them all!

PPFPESSco – Big Bong Gong (Pan Pan Pan Avian Distress Call)

Label Description: Went Walking down along the
Delta river bottom, High
As a Kite, Feeling Down
Right Blue in the
Face ing Facts
Sun was cracked,
Crawled straight out up, Up
Of the Toad Stool
Getting on to Dusk, Paralell to Ruts,
When up ahead there was cross
roads. By the sign there was
A Man
With a Golden Violin, The man was
Dressed in Black, Sulphur in the stacks
Of fire cones vibrate the sky
” Uh Uh ” they said, their face a glowing red –
” I might be the Devil, I won’t deny it be
cause it’s True “
” However, Facts is facts “
( Satan looked taken aback )
” I Want nothing, at all , No
Thing to do with You “
He Looked me right through
” I Was talking to your Woe-Man “
Lucifer held up a withered hand, And all the birds for miles fell
out of the air ~ ” I Can’t Believe the things she said “
Ol’ Nicks face went even deeper Red
” And quite frankly I’ve never been quite so scared “
Shuffled forward a bit, Golden Fiiddle & Bow in mitts
” And I have no Deal, No Joke or riddle for you “
He Put the treasure by my shoes
” Just leave me the fuck alone “
And with a Puff of Brimstone, he was gone ~
And Now I’m the richest man on earth, But still have the
Deep Bong Blues
