Touch have been releasing top notch experimental music here in the UK
for over 10 years. Their project seems to incorporate everything
that IDMers might find interesting: field recordings, 'world' music,
electronica (inc. Sandoz), serious experiments in sound and its affect upon the
hearer and so on. All releases come beautifully packaged in Jon Wozencroft
design. The closely-related label Ash International introduced
Scanner to the world and has put out a facinating series of releases
including a gripping recording made in 1948 of the conversation
between the driver of a runaway train and his controller!
A recent Touch/Ash release that might be of interest to this list is
'Aurobindo: Involution' - by Daren Seymour (Seefeel) and Mark Van
Hoen (Locust). Work out the mysterious track titles and recieve a
unique recording. Get to work, trainspotters!
Sample CDs for both Touch and Ash are now available and the Touch
mail-order catalogue is a souce of much goodness. E-mail them for
info at: TOUCH@touch.demon.co.uk.
Despite all this I still can't answer the question about John Duncan!
The out-of-date pile of stuff next to me here makes no mention of
him! Oops.
