Goofily deformed, deeply thought vocal jams: like the sound of your own breath rushing through your head.
A delicate and detailed walk through the urban and rural landscape around Dundee; a poetic focus on the details found. A performance for 16mm projection and live amplified objects (maybe pine cones, maybe a coke bottle).
Deliberately blurred drones, absent of definite structure or rhythm, framed in silence and devoid of any distraction from the pure matter of sound.
Out holler/ howl of English pukenoise posterboys exploded by incessant insect chatter of Northern fug dweller.
