No its not the monolith from 2001, its the new Delta Family Demo!
The artwork on the front cover is a modified picture of the surface of a Henry Moore sculpture. Inside the cover we’ve included a picture taken inside the lighthouse on Dungeness beach. The lighthouse created a safe channel by sending out two beams of light, one red and one green. Sailors could navigate down the channel by keeping both lights in sight.
The tracks we’ve chosen for this demo are:

This is a commissioned track. Ouch is a goldfish that lives in a Zen-inspired bowl near Basel, Switzerland. Ouch’s owner is an artist, specialising in abstract works.
‘A song for Ouch’ consists solely of layers of treated electric bass. We feel it has something of an African lilt.
We are open to consider other commissions. If you would like to email us we will consider the quirkiest requests and post the results here.

A dark brooding piece which started as a minimal techno track and morphed into a gritty urban ambient sound scape.

One option for playing live is to simply play one long improvisation so we wanted to see what would happen if we tried improvising for one hour solid. The resulting recording is presented with virtually no editing:
1 hour test
(Note the flash player doesn’t handle this big file very well so this post uses on older audio player!)
In conclusion we felt that it is a lot to ask an audiance to concentate on one long piece (and its a pretty intense experience for us) so we will probably split a gig up into more manageable chunks!
Too tired to sit around and chat we just started to play and had this recorded, mixed down and on the web site in under two hours!

The first public performance organised by The Magnificent Revolutionary Cycling Cinema. We put on a 20 minute performance. Live loops made by thrashing a bike with some drum sticks, followed by some live guitar and a it of audience participation. We mixed down the loops in the studio into this…

After Tim left the band we realised that we couldn’t perform the old material. This meant that we were free to experiment with different ways of working. We started playing with Ableton Live on a laptop. We soon discovered we could build up tracks much faster, almost in real time. The following tracks are edited versions of tracks which were recorded in one take.
The artwork is another old kozyndan CD cover.
