"Ultra-Red has always been about music, but it has always been about more than music, too. The brainchild of auteur/saboteur Don Rhein and collaborator/sound molester Pablo Garcia, Ultra-Red has taken the form of dance hall parties, art installations, manifestos, books, paintings, political rallies, automobiles and who-knows-what? In this case, Rhein and Garcia have assembled a series of interviews with a transsexual firefighter into a lovely musique concrete soundscape that ranges from bouncy to frightening to simply achingly beautiful, as the words have become sounds, rhythms and, ultimately, even exquisite melodies. The CD includes a manifesto on the rights of transgendered workers. Ultra-Red has already amassed an international reputation for surprise and experiment, and FS 59 will only increase that reputation."
