about

Recordings of significant and insignificant situations from 2021 and 2022, mostly. Tightly tangled up together and left to marinate. Not so fast.

Chocolate Monk says:
Glistening Examples recording star and British Library good egg Tom Bench finally gives in to Chocolate Monk pestering to deliver us Eight Knots Bathing. A fine set of simmering lower case noise and field recordings utilising electronics, tapes, loops, dictaphone, spring reverb, broken violin/guitar, phone, feedbacker and whatnot. Cover art from our man Malcy Duff.

Although it is a monaural recording, on the contrary, it gives a feeling of lo-fi, and I think that the sound quality is my favorite. asaemon0725

This is the favourite dance or your new curly robots. They walk and ride on a very monotonous and fast peace bringing love and gamelan breeze from another metalic satellite. Sometimes the robots are tiny, as ants that dance in oval dishes.. and sometmes they are like trembling hands that move around the floor of interplanetary ships. bardotodolpablopicco
