| 'LIVE @ CITY SCREEN #2' BY PLEASURE- DRENCHING IMPROVERS FH-B 009 (CD) APR 2001 SYNOPSIS: nearly exactly 1 month later, drenching wielding metallic tub like a fool, chop-sticking the percussive strands into clutter, blocking alleys with lyrical aplomb, but you can't believe it. early moments inc/ nes.co.: a sober premonition of fizzing heights later scaled on FH-B014. sculpture less minute, p-di apply their larger brush, PALETTE-knifing through butter and iron filings into the cracks of yorkshire's restive neo-ancient shell. features first appearance of sonic pleasure's foot-bricks, grinding a stÜrm, selectively flecked with exclusive colours. |
| 'HUMAN DIRTBOX' BY EDMONDEZ-DRENCHING-PLEASURE FH-B 012 (CD) JUN 2001 SYNOPSIS: live IN KAKUTOPIA H.Q. YORK. THE FIRST HALF CONSTITUTES SOMETHING APPROACHING A LANDMARK FOR FREE IMPROVISATION. THERE IS an inexplicable CLauSTrOPHOBIa lurking between all sounds, one way or another it's exactly comparable to some kind of hot audio mist. as DRENCHING REVS UP SQUAwKS ON A CASIO RAP-MAN, PLEASURE'S BRICKS LITERALLY DISINTEGRATE OFF ON THE MIC, AND Y'ALL GOT GWILLY EDMONDEZ PULLIN' SOME TRANSFIGURING TAPE OUT OF HIS MEMORY SACK, you'll be wondering why all albums aren't like this. ABOUT THE SECOND HALF, THE LESS SAID THE BETTER. |

| 'LLANÇÀ & ELSEWHERE' BY PLEASURE-DRENCHING IMPROVERS FH-B 013 (CD) AUG 2001 SYNOPSIS: on location in spain, cambridge and the disabled toilets of liverpool airport, p-di make a lengthy, full and indisputably conscientious examination of their bricktaphonic radio workshop. throughout this date the musicians act 'spontaneously'--in other words, obeying only their own inferences drawn from MUSICAL experience. assimilating this or that premise from the surrounding events, the performers, of their own volition, translate the conclusions into the language of action, under the inhospitable glare of airport security at 4am. |
| 'GOBLIN DUCKS THE BLADE' BY EDMONDEZ - DRENCHING - PLEASURE FH-B 016 (CD) DEC 2001 SYNOPSIS: yeah, WELL we did it, after the INITIAL shock of nes.co.'s unplanned absence we chalked 'edp string trio' on the blackboard and tore our strips down. dusting off 2 hi-jacked cellos and 1 legally-owned model, we set to work, hiding fin room e119 in york university. the road was long and hard and some didn't make it, but edp's second joint is an intriguing mixture of ligeti's 2nd string quartet, and the usual edp tangle of unofficial situations, this time it's all glazed with 19th century varnish and hidden with old books, trying to look harmless. like y'all haven't seen it anyway, eh? |
