EST's ten favourite live gigs of 1994 ...

The Blue Humans / Put Put (Disobey, London, July) The Blue Humans are much as expected: all-out free jazz twin-drum-one-guitar assault (although they prove to be considerably better two days later in the tiny, cramped Rough Trade Shop). Put Put, however, steal the show with their relentless trance-rock, a rawer, more stripped down version of everything Faust, Can and This Heat ever attempted.

VITAL, The Netherlands...

"Put Put's unabashed hi-octane jets of air stress the gaskets, slice like invisible knives".



Solo and collaborative tracks recorded in 2006, 2017 and further on.  Was once Days Of Eclipse, will soon be Ventral Scales (or something else).
