SPACEHADS and MAX EASTLEY : the time of the ancient astronaut. Universal
head expander vol.1[bleep 04]
From the first sound a different and special magic was evoked, captured
in one afternoon on this recording. Haunting trumpet melodies over soft
drones and textures sets the mood.
This slowly mutates to a world of high opera and tipsy beats that then
cascades with a metallic pounding. The music takes on cinematic
proportions as the terrain unfolds. Interstellar landscapes are
revealed. This is improvisation as a battle between the done and the
possible.
MAX EASTLEY plays The Arc. A nine foot long mono chord. One string
stretched over wood and played with a bow or glass rods. The pitch is
changed by flexing the wood. The string can also be shortened with
clips. It is then fed into electronic effects.
The SPACEHEADS is a duo mixing trumpet and electronics with drums and
percussion. Plaintive trumpet calls are looped across pulsing beats that
propel us into sheets of metal crashing and vibrating through tiny pick
ups cranked to the full and then spun into electronic webs.
The BiP_HOp Generation v.3 [bleep 05] just came back from the mastering
