Franzis Lating's compositions are like a trip down memory lane to the golden age of silent movies and reflecting at the time current issues.
Her works explore the crazy, and the wonderful that make us human. They show the composer's curiosity for new things and can be understood as an astute observation of her surroundings and the setting of the same to music. Lating's preference for Romantic music can easily be heard in her pieces, and the influences of Chopin, Satie, and Rachmaninov are also unmistakable. Her works are serious, dreamy, and passionate, but also show her wit and humor.

MIGU: anciens collectifs d'improvisation perspective éclectique.

MIGU is a collaboration between the Poet Bo Meson and Interstellar Abattoir, a Sheffield-based Eclectic Perspective Collective who've messing with lo-fi musical sounds since the early 1980s - we don't get out as much as we used to...

The core of Interstellar Abattoir consists of Jim, Pix and Andy, but we've always welcomed input, and over the years we have collaborated with many friends and relations: Kurt, Pete, Tim, Bo, Jan, Mike, Chris, Martin, Kimi who feature - or don't - here in various roles. 

For the most recent MIGU recordings we have been joined the talented Mr Meson on poetic vocal stylings, Ms Todd on harps, ideopan and flutes, and Mr Reed on sax.

When you find yourself under fire in some God forsaken northern trench with the nation's tears attempting to tease you out with a Carling fridge pack swinging gently on the end of a bait hook, you have stumbled into brown..

And when you return home from a day's toil in the Iberian sun to find your Carp butchered and the sky alight with burning American military hardware you have found yourself in brown...

And when you wake up snug in soft earth, staring into the eyes of a badger with tyre tracks across your ass and the sound of some distant radio station expounding upon the dangers of swiss chocolate to a caller named Lynne, then you my friend, will know you're in brown....

Brown.....
