M.S. Waldron may be best known for his work as irr. app. (ext.),
an unwieldy moniker that begets uncanny, hallucinatory sound.
Steven Stapleton is the genius behind Nurse With Wound, the
consistently unpredictable project that scrambles musical
obsessions for krautrock, surrealism, and avant-garde
composition into a brash quest for expressionism through
experimentation. Sigtryggur Berg Sigmarsson hails from the
Icelandic electro-absurdist duo Stilluppsteypa, which continues
to investigate the finer points of drunken minimalism. Jim
Haynes prefers to merely state that he rusts things. R.K.
Faulhaber is something of a mysterious figure, looming around
Mr. Waldron's irr. app. (ext.) recordings and performances while
keeping his own work a hermetic secret.
Each with a peculiar understanding of the audio arts, these five
artists came to the proverbial table and thought it a good idea
to collaborate. Given the predilection for the surreal and the
sidereal that each of these five employ in their many audio and
visual projects, those agendas oozed from the recordings that
became known as The Sleeping Moustache.
An epiphany of controlled disorder, a convulsion of beauty, a
cascade of thought from delirious minds, The Sleeping Moustache
is an exquisite manifestation of sound poetry scattered into a
tortuous collage mired in an oblique melancholy. Magnetic tones
extracted from the ether, mechanical sounds smeared into a
lugubrious growls, horns trumpeting straight out of John's Book
of Revelation, ululations sliced into information overload that
Schwitters himself would be proud of. The Sleeping Moustache
presents a psychically instable landscape, where dreams and
nightmares wreak havoc upon the drudgery of daily life. The
closest audible territory for The Sleeping Moustache might be
the psychoactive constructions of Nurse With Wound's Homotopy To
Marie, although the characters in this drama happened upon an
entirely different map of that terrain.
