Title Description:
This disc was recorded in an antique wooden gymnasium last winter, where it was so cold we couldnÕt feel our hands. Vic plays amplified cello and a rack of electronics he (re)built himself out of exposed circuit boards and salvaged speaker cones. Mike plays amplified contrabass and a tone generator originally made for scientists. The result is an unbelievably stark sound world utterly alienated from the glib fluidity usually associated with bowed strings. The pieces on 'Fall of Song' are by turns deep-frozen and blisteringly hot. The rhythms are those of hands moving over a workbench or methodically slashing tires.
