New album of music on cassette and minidisc...

...and also one only ltd editions on VHS, microcassette and cassette with walkman.

New album of music which has taken the best part of a year to pull together, alongside videos for each track which have been fitted together into a full album length film.

The sounds used within each piece tend to reflect a re-evaluation of a large personal archive of sounds and film that has developed since the mid 1990's from various media. Minidisc recordings, MiniDV film, Super 8 film, cassette, microcassette, early mobile phone footage and low-quality digital video cameras. These recordings and the media they are presented on reflect a theme of renewal, recycling and regeneration. These sounds are also mixed up with sounds provided from instruments and devices found from the constant scouring of car boot sales and secondhand shops in and around London.
The resulting music could be described as loosely experimental, part improvised, alternative, dance, dub, spoken word, field recording and found sound noise.

thanks
