o Ra Chord blasts of µSwitched on Bach╞ beauty performed by WRANGLER and
SCANNER who first met whilst fighting over a copy of µSwitched on Paddy
Kingsland╞ at a record fair. These Supraphon pyjama wearing artisans have by
loving of various knobs and switches, the sweet caressing of sequencers and
event generators and manipulation of patchcords, created the sounds and rhythms
for a discerning ear. Whilst Benge / Winters and Scanner have avoided the trap
of being academic beard noodlers with this release, they have invoked the
spirit of John Baker, White Noise and of course Bob Moog.
Featuring sounds made exclusively on the Moog Modular System 3C and the Formant
Modular Synthesiser this seven inch is a radiophonic joy, working as a platter
to play out as well as a companion piece to their Twenty Systems meisterwork.
Fans of Delia Derbyshire, Daphne Oram, Wendy Carlos, Brian Eno or the recent
John Baker Tapes are recommended to check this.
300 edition picture disc seven inch in picture sleeve.
