My Etherealrealness


Back to work today after a lovely two week break. Harrumph. But it's also Timothy Tuesday, as promised weeks ago. Here we have three tracks from a new e.p. from Mr Timothy J. Fairplay, out pretty soon and limited to 300 copies in silkscreened sleeves. The first song, My Etherealrealness is magnificently unhinged, all kinds of tones and melodies playing off against each other and the rave rhythm. Track two, Phantom Trap, I posted at the start of December. The third is Flying Saucer Review, percussive and echo-laden. This is shaping up to be one of his best records yet and given the high quality of his work last year that's saying something. As for the owl costume, I have no idea... but I like it.

  4. Wow, they've all got a very '88 analogue vibe to them. Phantom Trap is a bit 808 State/A Guy Called Gerald. Lovely!

  7. You can't beat the combination of Lego and Apocalypse Now.
