A World Out Of Time

70 Years of Sunshine
In 1943 a Swiss chemist accidentally absorbed through his finger-tips a tiny amount of a compound he was researching. Later, he recorded the effects in a journal - a document of the world's very first LSD trip: 'Last Friday, April 16,1943, I was f…

Aural Spaces
I've been in touch with Ian MIDDLETON for over 13 years now, lured into contact by a remora lathe-cut lp, I believe, which sounded similar in intent to ifco material that karla and I were working on at the time. IanIan's music has always had both org…
