This record is a sprawling journey through bouncy pop,
brooding jazz, eastern scales, 50's lounge music, bhangra,
philly soul, contemporary folk and classical music. Yet it is
also a small record. Each song lives and breathes in its own
little world. Barbed are Alex and Alex previously responsible
for the "plunderphonic" classic "Barbed" released on the
legendary Recommended label way back in 1994. Veterans of
stupidly long concerts with the likes of Negativland, People
Like Us and the Tape Beatles, they went on to join an
embryonic Add N to X, provide the soundtrack for Joram ten
Brink's arthouse classic "The Man Who Couldn't Feel" and
supply material for numerous compilations, live records &
remixes. But yet all the time they yearned to make a different
kind of music, one that was at the same time familiar and yet
alien, pop fluff with hidden spikes... barbed as it were. And
this is it "Doubleclick Countryside".

family" Motion
