DISCHARGE available as... duration:
51'01" Engage 13'24"
Recorded
live to digital at Tachyon Studio 26 October 2009. Alan
Freeman: digital electronics, sounds, loops, guitar, percussion. A change of format for this 2009 Extremities session, just three
big suites, two of them in reconstructed "collage" format works,
book-ending a flowing opus that was left pretty much intact. The track
details above should help you make sense of that! So we have three treks that
follow a rough compositional strategy: a calm start, with diversions and
developments, leading to a climactic ending. Think explorative Faust, very
early Kraftwerk, meeting Third Ear Band with a whole wealth of other
unexpected elements, featuring flute, guitars, percussion, and a whole
"orchestra" of electronics, Mellotron sounds, etc. In many ways
it's the best introduction to Extremities yet, never too weird or extreme,
although it is as always a challenging and groundbreaking trip, it's even a
little melodic and cosmic in parts too! Versions... |
