Andrew Broder (aka Lex Records/Ninja Tune recording artist Fog)
and George Cartwright (leader of the long-running avant/jazz group
Curlew, as well as the GloryLand PonyCat trio) can each lay claim
to some serious barrier-crashing & genre-splicing within their
respective bodies of work. Together on a Minneapolis stage in February
2004, they carried on the cross-pollination even further: utilizing
an array of saxophones, laptops, turntables, keyboards, and various
effects, this freely-improvised set touches on familiar territory
from their pasts & points a way to future possibilities. By
turns lyrical and abstract, meditative and unsettling, Broder and
Cartwright create imaginary soundtracks for pirate-broadcast TV
documentaries on phenomena you never knew existed. A limited edition
of 531 copies on red vinyl, with hand-silkscreened covers.
