Erhu Piece
April 27, 2012
Here’s one of the first pieces I made after a nine year gap (in 2003), as you will see I was trying out a bunch of different styles. This is purely using Chinese instruments and is attempting to apply a Renaissance style to it.
Infernal Ships Sink – 1989
April 25, 2012
1989, proper guitar, proper studio.
Is it better? Can’t tell, it’s well played and it’s different. I gave up the bass which I was pretty good at in favour of the guitar. A more clinical rendition perhaps, with correct timing that renders it less naive. You decide.
Infer Ships Sink, First Single from 1984
April 20, 2012
Ahoy!
30 years since I wrote it so thought I’d post my first single, recorded 1983 aged 17 for £50, released the following year under the name “AED”. Got played by John Peel, sold 17,000 copies.
Side A: “Infer Ships Sink”, indie prog folk?
Side B: “Emporium Halls Pt. 4″, layered slowed down birdsong.
