Cindytalk
's
Gordon Sharp
and
Robert Hampson
(
Loop
,
Main
) are two characters of legend circulating on the periphery of London (and beyond) underground music over the last 2+ decades. It may come as a surprise then, that this stunning split 10" is the first meeting of these two singular minds. "Five Mountains Of Fire" by Cindytalk is a cracking track taking their recent brittle electronic experiments and charging them with firecracker-like percussion to create a pleasantly disorienting soundscape. Flip it over, and Hampson delivers the practical polar opposite with "Antarctica Ends Here" -- an exceptionally beautiful piece utilizing piano and carefully-placed electronics so as not to break the ice -- a tribute to
John Cale
's "Antarctica Starts Here" (from
Paris, 1919
, 1973). Limited to 500 copies. Cindytalk is:
Gordon Sharp
(electronics),
Paul Middleton
(drums),
Dan Knowler
(guitar),
Gary Jeff
(percussion), and
Sherrill Crosby
(electronics).
