Rod Cooper, Carla Oliver & Justin Ashworth - Wired Head Tantrums -




A live free improv set from 2018 that sounds like submerged liquid worlds full of strange floating life forms and/or synapses firing in the vast dimensions of some futuristic hybrid consciousness, both organic and synthetic (think analogue, not digital). Chiming percussive tones made with an invented metallophone called the 'upright array', strangely sentient sounds made from the electrical impulses of house plants manipulated via modular synth, echoing ambient guitar/pedal noise that helps to submerge everything in liquid or send it all drifting through inner space. As a whole the recording has an almost dub-like sense of depth, ebbing and flowing between more abstract passages and others that sound like fourth world ethnographic forgeries… maybe make that fifth world.
