Notes
|
Original material recorded by
Colin Potter
and
Steven Stapleton
between 2001 and 2003, sampled and edited from
recordings originally made by Xhol Caravan. Stapleton personally asked
Jim O'Rourke, Irr.App.(Ext.) and Cyclobe to "finish" his recordings and
Angry Eelectric Finger (Spitch'cock One)
was released on CD through
United Dairies
.
World Serpent Distribution went bust and the project became inherited
by
Beta-Lactam Ring Records
and all the material also surfaced on:
Angry Eelectric Finger (Spitch'cock One)
Part Zero: Raw Material - Zero Mix
Part One: Tape Monkey Mooch (Jim O'Rourke)
Part Two: Paraparaparallellogrammatica (Cyclobe)
It appears that an edited version of Part One appears on
Angry Eelectric Finger (Spitch'cock One)
.

Reviews

It is unfortunate for Matt Waldron
(Irr.App.[Ext.]) that his reworking of the Angry Eelectric Finger raw
material was alotted Volume Three status, as he has used many of the
same sounds as Jim O'Rourke used in his Volume One. Although both
albums are excellent listens, perhaps owing to the strength of the
source material, both artists have done little alteration and their
volumes sound a bit too similar at times. It is unclear whether or not
they heard each other's works in progress, although I imagine that they
did not. Waldron has started his "Part One" with the same ratchet sound
and creepy drones that are a main feature of both the Raw Material LP
and O'Rourke's volume. However, this version quickly gives way to a
more chaotic and surreal environment, with chugging motor patterns
ping-ponging around the stereo field. "Part Two" again treads similar
ground to the O'Rourke version, in which both artists have included a
large, unaltered section featuring interplay between saxophone, flute,
and hand drums. Waldron has placed this section closer to the end of
the piece, while O'Rourke introduced it near the beginning of "Part
Two." Here Waldron's structure mirrors that of the Raw Material LP
almost exactly. The first half of Mute Bell Extinction Process's "Part
Two" is taken up by swirling psychedelic electronics, much as side two
of Stapleton and Potter's raw material LP is. Perhaps Waldron's
well-documented reverence for Nurse With Wound got in the way of his
being more adventurous, or perhaps he felt that the source material was
so strong that he didn't want to do more than give it a slight twist.
This is, after all, the same man who released a CD of a version of
Nurse With Wound's debut album, Chance Meeting on a Dissecting Table of
a Sewing Machine and an Umbrella which he accidentally "remixed" by
simply making a tape-to-tape copy of said album on defective tape
machines. - Jim Siegel
