4D Experience

Here we are recording Paper Aeroplane's soundtrack to the short film Swimming Pool in the front room. I am in the Keyboard Corner and Rich is in the Looking Chair. Hopefully this is going to be expertly synced with the film and made available on hi-tech DVD format. Yes, sound + video (at the same time!).

painful sensory journey through limbo

Aurelien kindly reviewed Tharn for a blog he writes for, W-Fenec. I fed it through google translator and this is what was said -

Between the second and third installment of the trilogy "The Warren of Snares", there were concerts, lots of concerts, pending necessarily much expectation on the part of fans of the group but also an exit, confidential under fairly eloquent Tharn. Behind it lies a rearranged version of "Dominion Theology," bubbling and the striking centerpiece of Elil reinterpreted by a pair of responding to nick Paper Airplane (who contributed a few months later to record the last part of trilogy: Inle) and output in a cardboard sleeve edition recyclable (what's more normal from the Fall of Efrafa, ecologists believe.) and limited to a few hundred copies of the English label: At Home Records.
Reviewed and corrected in precisely 15 minutes and 38 seconds against more than twenty in its original version, "Dominion Theology" nevertheless retains a startling ability to overwhelm the listener postcore ground swells crashing over and over cons Coral melodic carved in stone. We will not play by the play of differences and similarities between the original and reinterpretation by cons, we can say that work has rarely been so well understood and assimilated to propose a rereading of both faithful and personal (paradox when you hold us). For over a quarter of an hour, Paper Airplane appropriates with the relevant original material composed by Fall of Efrafa him and live a parallel existence, which resembles the first but not quite the same. Intense, refined and melodic, powerful, angry and pest, the "Dominion Theology" soothes, bristles and finally we embarked in a moving but painful sensory journey through limbo of post-hardcore.

Thanks Aurelien!

The Road





Paper Sauna experiments.
We performed our live score over the weekend, Lindsay came and helped out. Masses of power was consumed and plenty of coffee was drunk. Plans are afoot for more in the near future. Thanks to Paul at the mixtapes project for sorting it all out and a notable mention goes to Audiobunny.

Also, in other news... Grouper.

Communal Giving

Soooo... you know a while ago we had that thing, putting up songs by that band Luke & I did years ago, then people could order it and we'd make all the CD's and stuff and it'd be great. Well, 8 months later and we've finally made the CD's. It's great. It's kinda weird doing all this so long after we actually wrote and recorded this stuff, but i'm still really proud of the songs and we always wanted to do something with it... So, what we've done is make 20 of the CD's, a bunch of them have already gone but the rest we've stuck up in our shop for sale... They're £4 all in, wherever you are. We've also put it up as a download, so chuck yourselves in.

Planet Caravan

I just put up the download for Hot Damn's - Let's do something cheap and superficial 7" for easy access for all. We still have a bunch of 7" left to buy.
The band played their last show a month or so ago, it was a good time. It was with Algernon Cadwallader & Teenage Cool Kids, who were both stellar.
We're currently in the process of recording the last songs we wrote as a band for posterity. We're doing this in our new headquarters and it's going swimmingly so far. We're planning some kind of limited release for these songs, but we currently have no idea what this will be...

Suggestions on a postcard please.

this is our radio...









Just to let you know that we've posted up a new 730Radio Show...


If you're not already an avid listener to the show then let me clue you up... The 730 Radio Show is At Home's well intended, admittedly at times a bit slap dash, attempt as pod casting. Rich and I introduce our top musical picks as well as filling the in-between bits with a feature laden chat package. Perfect for commuting, exercising, and laying down to.
