ANDREW LILES - 'Ouarda (The Subtle Art Of Phyllorhodomancy)' CD / DVD DualDisc (Dirter)
Recorded in London, Paris, and Sicily "Ouarda (The Subtle Art Of Phyllorhodomancy)" is a travelogue that refuses to stay stuck in any one place for any extended period. The music is as diverse as the array of guests involved - Danielle Dax, Maja Elliott, Rose McDowall, Karl Blake, Edward Ka-Spel (Legendary Pink Dots) and Volcano the Bear's Daniel Padden all bestow unique and stunning contributions. Obscure, accessible, incomprehensible and exceptional, "Ouarda" is testament to the breathtaking production talents of Andrew Liles, arguably the most vital and original soundsmith of recent years. Side one of this disc is an audio CD including an extra track and slightly remixed version of the LP. The other side of the disc is a DVD which includes - "Ouarda (The Subtle Art of Phyllorhodomancy)" - Colin Potter Version (A film by Michael Tang with musical adaptations by Colin Potter), " Old Tom's Marrow" - A film by Andrew Liles, plus truly amazing 5.1 mixes by Freida Abtan of 3 tracks.

VOLCANO THE BEAR - 'That People Don't Know Who They Are' 7" (Quasi Pop)
"One of the stranger bands that I encounter is Volcano The Bear. I never know what to think about them. Sometimes I seem to hate them, and sometimes I just love them. Perhaps its the format here that makes me love them, perhaps its also the fact that they are a rock band in my book and that such a format just works out fine. Two fine slabs of their mutated rock music, which ends up in a sorrowful ballad on 'That People Don't Know They Are Monsters', while on the other side the mutations work out in a more krautrock version. Two strange pieces, but they work well here on this format..." (Vital Weekly). You may think it's a ballad, noise, tribal shamanism, folk or acoustic. Ltd x 500 copies.
