More InfoErstes Album des neuen Projekts von MARK SPYBEY (DEAD VOICES ON AIR, ZOVIET FRANCE, jetzt REFORMED FACTION) und PHIL WESTERN (DOWNLOAD). Sehr lebendige experimentelle Electronica, teils minimal groovig oder fast dubbig, dann eher ambientig-hypnotisch, manchmal vollgepackt mit fast chaotischen Sounds & Geräuschen & Effekten; die Balance zwischen Chaos & Struktur wird hier in beide Richtungen wunderbar ausgetestet..."BEEHATCH is the new project from Phil Western and Mark Spybey, who met in Vancouver, whilst playing together in Download. Ten years have elapsed since they last worked together. During that time, Phil has released a number of solo and collaborative albums and has continued to work as part of both Download and platEAU (w/ cEvin Key of Skinny Puppy fame). He is also a producer and DJ. Mark has continued to release albums as Dead Voices on Air, Reformed Faction (a band formed with fellow Zoviet*France members) and has collaborated with many musicians, including members of Can and Faust. BEEHATCH was initiated as the result of a “shall we make an album together” chat on the telephone. The album was recorded in Los Angeles and England via internet file sharing. Far from being an impersonal way of making music, this technique has liberated the approach to the making of this album. Gone are the days of being locked in an expensive and often creatively dead studio-space. The musicians were able to make music at leisure, in familiar environments. Phil and Mark have developed similarities in an approach to music making but in essence, Phil emerged smiling from the generation electronic and Mark slowly crept out of the distant days of four tracks and homemade instruments. Both are seasoned improvisers who started life as drummers and tend to ignore as many of the so-called ‘rules of music making’ as possible. Nothing is clear. Everything is possible. Accidents are encouraged. This CD is packaged in a 6-panel digipak with original artwork by Mark Spybey. Audio mastering courtesy of Frankie Pett.
