Info:
Jonny Nash (guissian Curve / Melody Is Truth) And Firecracker S Lindsay Todd Get Barefoot And Turn Out A Stunner Of An Lp. Over The Course Of Twelve Compositions We Find The Pair Utilising Their Recordings In A Whole Host Of Ways, Avoiding The Well-trodden Cliches Of The Exotic And Instead Attempting To Achieve A Personal Interpretation Of The Flora, Fauna And Climate Of The Island. Spending Time Amidst The Insects, Rice Fields And Scorching Sun, The Pair Gathered A Library Of Found Sounds Which Were Then Taken Back To A Studio Space To Be Stretched, Mangled And Manipulated Alongside A Variety Of Electronic And Acoustic Instruments. The Outdoor Studio Itself Became A Living Instrument, With The Duo Setting Up Multiple Microphones For Durations Of Up To 12 Hours Around The Space, Layering And Processing The Results In Tracks Such As Fauna Mapping And A Series Of Small Frogs
