The first five numbers were taken from what I think was the first set from their awesome September 2003 National Space Centre Concert. Track sixth is a studio track. All the material here is new, the music reaching new heights as their collaboration continues.

We begin with 'L'Infernal'. Birdsong mixes with other calming sounds and effects followed by a looped and processed sound sample courtesy (or certainly not!) of Tony Blair. Out of this emerges a sequence with just a hint of menace. The pads swell and another sequence / loop is added increasing the pace and excitement level still...

Tracks two to six were taken from what I think was the second set from their awesome September 2003 National Space Centre Concert.

In the third minute ethnic vocal samples can be heard then text taken from some news programme, all underpinned by a gentle sequence which gradually increases in prominence as it rises through the mix.

The music here was recorded during rehearsals for their 2003 National Space Centre concert thus does have a rather improvised feel, all the tracks running into one. The titles are all rather humorous, some of them you will get some of them you won't.

'In the Regions of Taxreturn' starts off with windy sounds through which a chugging sequence and slow rather whimsical melody emerges. It's a nice relaxed number with real character. We drift into 'Assault on Space Precinct 13' on the back of another slow sequence and windy pads. More melodic pads float across the ether creating a...

More Info

Binar aka STDM aka Spank The Dark Monkey combine the considerable talents of UK synth masters Paul Nagle and Andy Pickford. Preconceptions take a back seat to the simple pursuit of cool blissed out grooves and beats, and more than a pinch of atmosphere and melody. Often the spark ignites in the live environment and much of their output is a meld of improvised performances.
