'Thoron' is actually one of my personal faves - it's made of just blank tape and melting ice, two things usually assumed to be silent... so bringing those sounds out was a real delight. there is another album somewhere, will try to find it and upload it some time. thanks again for the exposure! it's an old project, but dear to my heart.B'O'Knoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8740384.post-6307691560123459892014-11-24T19:28:21.236-08:002014-11-24T19:28:21.236-08:00Congrats on the excellent broadcast.

But I always thought they sounded kinda cool, because...well, check the name of this blog.<br />Mr Fabhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15116623844291424658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8740384.post-72943036509084176452014-11-20T17:49:07.155-08:002014-11-20T17:49:07.155-08:00Great show w.

Gary last night, Mr. Fab!<br /><br />I just dled The Fruiting Body and I wish I'd had "Blood Orange" to play at Halloween (I assume other people are as scared of air raid sirens as I am...they totally freak me out). <br /><br />Or maybe younger folks don't have the same reaction. Anyway, thank you!Hollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17822820465535539404noreply@blogger.com
