about

Manipulated field-recordings sourced entirely from server-arrays, hard-discs and PC peripherals from Belo Horizonte, Brasil and Yeovil, Somerset.

Previously released as a Limited Homemade CDr in 2009 on 19f3 Records ("The world's greatest Non-Boutique Yeovil-based Nano-label").

Includes a bonus 9th track not on original CDr and only ever put out as a ltd floppy-disk edition of 1.

From the original 19f3 Press Release:

"The resulting pieces are a curious fusion of the mechanistic and the organic: a series of REM-sleep sirensongs built from whirring servos, damaged cpus and haunted read-write heads. Ghost-Industrial Music.

"Sound-files rub up against each other to create accidental textures, rhythms, harmonics and voices. A chance meeting on a PC World Customer Service Desk of a zip-drive and a storage drum. REM Vs. RAM.

"File under: machines that go bump in the night, ferromagnetic nightmares, head crashes, somnambulant automata, data archeology/salvage, disaster recovery, nocturnal back-ups, random-access retrieval, Music for PS/2 Ports."
