Thumpermonkey London, UK
A person in space, walking, or adrift, but safe, exploring, freedom, discovery.
A clockwork piano
contraption, like a giant ballerina box, but turning a big totem pole, around which smart office dressed people slowly dance with dead glazed eyes as a slightly out of tune slow Satie-like Lydian melody loops round.
White men in pith helmets hunting large animals to extinction.

Psithurism

music trickling through spaces somewhere in the woods grown over the strange rusted out husks of company towns. haunting the 8-track car stereos of abandoned ufo watchers' station wagons. celestial and possessed of a sinister undertone. turns into a cryptid indeed can't pick favorites, this is a sonic web all caught up in itself. self contained as it were. and self assured of that fact in very clever bits.

Here Comes A Man From The Council With A Flamethrower
by A Formal Horse
supported by 10 fans who also own “The Universe Has Moved Beyond You (cassette rarities)”
One of my favourite albums of the past couple of years. A truly original sound I can't really pigeonhole with other bands. Brilliant musicianship from all, soaring vocals - I think I once heard it described as 'an intoxicating mix'. Short tracks but they pack so much variation into a couple of minutes - lyrical to grunge choppy chords in a few seconds. Brilliant.
