Ether 20'00" + Epilogue 9'47" on download versions Recorded live at Tachyon Studio, 2 December 2001 in real time to cassette tape, with the intention of it being used for concert backing tapes yet it never was! Rediscovered in a box of session tapes and loops in February 2009. Repaired and edited with Sound Forge, 6-8 April 2009. Alan Freeman: guitar (controlling Roland GR-33 guitar synth, Doepfer MS-404 analogue synth, Zoom GFX-707 effects), Alesis AirFX, MAM RS3 Resonator review... I never ever intended to do a new-age album, but if I ever have done one this is it, being largely atmospheric, drone/tone based, with long drawn-out developments. It's all pretty unconventional stuff though, showcasing how you can do music on a guitar synth that is unlike anything else on earth. Some subtle Midi control directed to an analogue synth makes for some weird chunky stuff on a couple of tracks, and I added crackle and modulation effects using the Alesis AirFX. Only rarely do you hear actual guitar! Versions... CD-R: silver disc, 20 copies - released 2009. Routenote distributed download - released 27/9/2012. Bandcamp download - released 26/9/2014.
