NOTE: All audio errors are as a result of Live performance poor recording.
Even this web reviewer pointed it out.
"A bass clarinet, sounding more like a hurdy gurdy, issues a call to arms
(or instruments in this case) to ô1st Invocationö, a peculiar dirge that
begins the Frogtoboggan morphology haunted by the voice of Jennifer Van
Dyke, an operatic singer who fronts the chamber ensembleÆs album recorded
live in May of 2000. A psychedelic recherchΘ of silhouettes folk,
classical and ambient, recrudescence of a disconcertingly refreshing type,
Frogtoboggan isolates the listener with sparse fluted instruments (fitted
with garden hose extension no less) that call to mind pagan ritual
performed in the dark of night far from the eyes of the conservatively
theological. At times the musical deviates from troubling silences
insouciant with avant-garde jazz forays bordering on the orient, yet even
these are darkened off-key by the intrusion of other ensemble members.
The majority of the performance consists of trumpet, flute, clarinet,
violin, bass clarinet, with the last member, Frogtoboggan fumes the
background with drones, prepared piano, and pre-recorded soundscapes,
though at times, as in ô2nd Invocationö his deformed audio stamps dark
intaglioÆs to the foreground. Poetic rants add to the bizarre confrereÆs
performance, backed by wistful meloldy.
"Unfortunately the live performance is marred by clips in the audio
throughout, noticeable enough to disrupt the unique fusion of otherworldy
sounds and experimentation.
"Succinctly packaged in a white with dark earth-tone printing featuring a
paraphernalia of occult and hermetic imagery with a professionally
printed disk."

MORAL DiSCLAiMER: We are very aware of the fact that our releases
contribute to the growing sale losses of record companies.
Unfortunately our style primarily targets small, independant labels
that need sales to survive.
For these reasons we ask you not to distribute this release on public
sites or P2P tools; if more and more receive their music from the net,
artists and labels will have to face even less sells than nowadays.
Please do not consider this release as a substitute to the original, but
only as a way to check out and learn about new music.
We absolutely do not approve of DJs or other individuals that earn
money from pirated music - Don't let them get their hands on it!
By buying the albums you like you disperse the guilt we feel by
releasing this music - Enjoy the music and be fair with the artists!
YOUR support is required to keep them financially alive and producing!
