about

One of the more unusual (and sonically indelicate) tracks from the 2nd stage of irr. app. (ext.) pre-history. This was one of the occasions where I impulsively put things together, and even the meagre compositional skills that I had developed at the time were shoved out of the way to let whatever was going to happen simply happen. I've always enjoyed listening to pieces created this way, because the results sounded completely alien to me despite having been involved in their creation (the most extreme example being a piece done slightly earlier than this one called 'The Carnival Of Disease'.

A small excerpt from this track was eventually integrated into the inversely-titled 'From Out Of The Loins Of Pestilence: Joy', which is on the third irr. album 'Their Little Bones...', released in 1999.

The only recording of the full-length original that I had managed to capture back in the day (on analogue cassette) was a real mess. That, and the fact that it's hard to imagine that anyone else would enjoy listening to it, made me think twice about making it public. But I couldn't resist the challenge of taking on the sound quality problems, and once I had done that it seemed silly not to do something with the stupid thing.

Dance music for victims of the emotional plague...
