Albums

As with Volume 1 of the Dada Songwriting project, Rejection dryrot ripple Gombage, each contributor created two mins of raw sound - a single track recorded live with no post-processing. After each set of four submissions arrived, they were blindly put together to create a track - as and when they arrived in Corporal Tofulung's inbox.

These recordings were made in 2015 - 16 in Washington DC, Forth Worth and Auckland. You can feel the spaces of a three-story concrete stairwell, an echo chamber on a busy street, a concrete bunker room, and 'Vortex', Richard Serra's 67 foot high weathering steel sculpture.

a collective of scientists, electric guitars, hanging drums, broken electronics and citizen astronomers.

A couple of guitar improvisations. Recognizably the guitar, but strange and detached, not always comprehensible.

Two live Unknown Rockstar sets, one noise and one ambient.

I am Nigerian prince and I have Extension Cord Symphony 9, my two sons 2 and 8 play on this recording and they can send you one million dollars if you just got to western union and ask for a green dot special moneygram. We played electronics through chance indeterminists techniques. Do not talk about this recording with anybody or you will not get the one million dollars. you thank.

The sounds of circuits and strings layer, combine and mutate to calming and transcendent effect.

Each contributor created two mins of raw sound - a single track recorded live with no post-processing. After each set of four submissions arrived, they were blindly put together to create a track - as and when they arrived in Corporal Tofulung's inbox. The Dada Songwriting Compilation was inspired by Hollow Earth Radio's Surrealist Songwriting Project [2014] [2013].

Deeper in what exactly? Deeper enmeshed, deeper commitment to the consequence of decisions, deeper related to the world?

"I was walking through Capitol Hill, Seattle one weekend, and encountered an abandoned piano at the side of the road..."

After sporadic gigs and jams throughout the years, the brothers bring you live and dirty live recordings to feed your need for scummy trash rock.

Some guitar playing, some drone. All very cheerful, of course.
