iotacism the benelux (circus)
Fritware Painted with Lustre was recorded in 2001 at my second Walthamstow flat opposite the police station in Forest Road. It has developed out of the singer-songwriter ethic of the earlier CD and incorporated more soundscaping. Toiletries has been played on the Kosmische programme on Resonance FM and Rocket Assed Fly has been played on Ian Price's The Lighthouse programme. I hope to put more mp3s from this album up soon.
"Out of the disintegrating fragments of The Entropy Circus. Out of the decade long debate with structure, form and coherence.Out of the Warner flats and reservoirs of Walthamstow comes The Benelux, as if fully formed: crooning, pouting and gibbering for all they are worth on a new, shiney and allegedly listenable 14 track album..." Pizza & Beer appeared on volume two of the Moving On compilation. The Goodbye Song was originally part of Phil Turnbull's electronic cabaret act No Night Sweats - the Woolongong train referred to in the lyrics crashed last year. That'll learn me to do cover versions. |
"the
benelux circus is the bastard hybrid of the found sound atmospherics
& industrial jazz of the entropy circus and the quirky pop troubadourisms
of the benelux."
Quails
are Given was recorded in the early part of 2001 on a
second-hand Fostex eight-track reel-to-reel, it was a learning experience
and it was great fun. The Benelux was an attempt to break out of
the straitjacket of the Entropy Circus by recording a CD of three
minute pop songs, or so they seemed at the time.
