Glasgow based contemporary music group Paragon Ensemble performing an improvisation with Pete Dowling, Nick Fells, Robert Irvine and others.
A silent collage of found film footage partially layered with computer graphics to provide a framework in which live music can develop.

An LSD trip gone right via dense explorations of post-Fahey steel and low level drone.
A black hole of dense heaviosity, full of slow motion riffage, tectonic pummel and massive planet destroying rock.
