LP 7" from CMR

Buy Now $15.00 from Joel Stern and Friends

edition of 250 by New Zealand imprint CMR, 2 sharp vinyl sides of lively hiss methodology improvisation from this multinational quartet. "Recorded two years ago in Auckland, it has Richard Francis on computer, electronics, field recordings, Anthony Guerra on electric guitar, electronics, Mattin on computer feedback and Joel Stern on electronics and field recordings. Don't let Mattin scare you off in this lot: one side sounds like a thunder storm recorded from a big distance which fades gradually into a drone and the other side is at the higher end of the spectrum, but with lots of subtle crackles. It's good to see Mattin not doing so many noise things these days and become the more all-round computer musician. These four like to play things soft and controlled and its great."
