The 7th Synphonie Of The Seven Swevens
Andrew Lagowski writes: “The 7th Synphonie of the Seven Swevens a.k.a. 777 by Dr. Fleischbrittel was recorded direct to cassette on 29th and 30th May 1983 at IP1 3PG, Ipswich. The project was realised as a means of escape from the band mentality that I was part of at that time. It offered me the chance to free-form in more ways than one and express my more demonic leanings - those of a frustrated teenager recording in whichever bedroom had the space for the equipment. Unbeknownst to them, my par…

Sex Dreams Of The I Ching
Millimetre writes… “Sex Dreams Of The I Ching started out as six love songs with strange fragmented structures that had titles inspired by readings from the I Ching. I didn't know what to do with them, but kept returning to them over and over, they had an uncanny quality whilst being totally dissonant and broken. One day I found some recordings I made on a 4-track years ago with a WEM Copycat – mostly my vocalisations looped endlessly – and out of curiosity played some whilst playing the love so…
Works For Magnetic Tape
Ken Hollings writes: “I have always been, first and foremost, a writer. The three tracks that make up this audiocassette release reflect my interest in how differently the written text operates from spoken word: what separates and makes them distinct from each other – and what happens when one is translated into the other? A longer version of the text for “There Must Be Something Wrong With This, Sally” appeared in volume 19 issue 4 of the Leonardo Electronic Almanac: “Without Sin: Freedom and T…
