'this second solo outing is the work of a keen foraging ear that's open to an everyday psychedelia.
plotting a staggered route through city and country, it scatters subtle violin & zither interventions
into the field recording stramash of public announcements and gaudy theme parks that jostle in the
stereo with the spit and crackle of a burning pumpkin seed dropped in the fire like so many misplaced
lucky pennies.' Psykick Dancehall Recordings

' Don’t Look Now nightmares, this time all dubbed up with Jah Shaka at the controls...
This is sheer dislocation and rapture! I look at the tiny tape with wonder…
this sounds like it was recorded at Abbey Road; Scott Walker conducting (with a boner)
such is the rousing ferment... The Lost Wax do it again…surely a contender for tape of the year'

Open Krackens excerpt

From 'The Poacher':
Sounds gathered while wandering the hutongs and parks of Beijing, and during a journey from North to Central Vietnam. Composed while trapped indoors during one of Beijing's many spates of hazardous pollution. Completed in the winter, in Derbyshire; the final track recorded in a garden shed, with a piano.
Binaural field recordings, pick-up coil, contact mics, reel to reel, piano.

'The Sun Is A Hammer' Excerpt

Originally released by Jon Collin on his Winebox Press label:

'Lost Wax is the solo project of Ben Morris, one half of Chora. I'm delighted to be presenting what, to my knowledge, is his first solo release and it's a real treat. The emphasis here is perhaps more on percussion and field recording than the 'rock' instrumentation employed by the Chora big band, layered and built into heaving long jams. Very cool. Edition of 78 was originally the battered frame of a futon.' Winebox Press
