excellent news, this week I have been listening to the recent albums by
Metaxu, Philippe Blanchard/Christian Renou, Gal, and Chine Nual and they
are all very good. So very happy to read that PlateLunch will go on.
Thank you.

SPACEHADS and MAX EASTLEY : the time of the ancient astronaut [bleep 04]
Spaceheads have teamed up with Max Eastley, who wields The Arc (an
electric acoustic monochord), and done just that -- removed the motorik
syncopated driving beats and replaced them with shimmering cymbals and
small percussive gestures and squiggles, while extending the trumpet into
neverendingly evocative chilled-out washes of pure vibratoless horn.
Although I am not quite sure what the monochord looks like or how it
works, it sounds much like an early analogue moog synth, erupting in
wails at times hellish and chaotic, at times placid and harmonious. An
ambient record. Relaxing yet with an undercurrent that will unsettle you
in a good way.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

The superb Spaceheads expand to a trio with the addition of sound
sculptor and instrument inventor Max Eastley. Their recording, starts
with a distantly eerie set of music with soaring trumpet, drums in
irregular march and Eastley's 'Arc' (an electroacoustic monochord)
imitating an out-of-tune violin for the feel of a soundtrack to a
particularly grim part of a '60s Biblical epic. Though recorded as one
long piece, they've thoughtfully indexed the CD into 'songs' or sections
as the sounds change. Andy Diagram's trumpet flutters like a voice in
tremolo, other times filling the space with impossibly long notes (he
blows then expands the sound beyond the temporal range of human breath).
Richard Harrison's work is far more detailed than his usual sensitive
funk, mostly altered bowed and scraped and bent metal. Eastley dances in
slow curlicues around them both (at least I think that's him). Very, very
nice.
