NE189: Assembled Minds

Inspired by his experiences scuba diving in the Caribbean, Frank Black later said he had "this very small fish trying to chase me. I don't know why—I don't know too much about fish behavior."

HELLION EARTH

The Assembled Minds is the recording project of Matthew J Saunders (Magnétophone (4AD), R.E.E.L., The Twilight Sequence, Veil). Traditional analogue studio rituals, sci-fi dreaming, arcane LED-lit magical practices and all nature of wyrd wild sonic tom foolery.

The first lp, 'Tomorrow Curves', is a collection of analogue sci-fi soundtracks and voltage controlled incantations.

The second album, 'Creaking Haze and Other Rave Ghosts', is an invocation of hazy horror raves from the mists of the collective mind. Here's what Simon Reynolds said about it:

"Differently great. Rippling reverb-misted pianos and a sleepwalk trance of drum machines and pumping bass – the vibe is much more Ultramarine’s 'British Summertime' than ardkore. And there’s this sound that’s in most of the tracks: a high-pitched “peaky” timbre that is… ecstatically edging into dissonance, is the best I can do by way of describing it. It reminded me of what Trevor Horn once told me: his belief that great albums have the same sound running all the way through – his example was The Blue Nile’s Hats – so that every track is a chip off the same lustrous block, refracting slightly different. "

Enter our world, wide eyed and workshop grimy...
