water wrackets BITCHIN BAJAS



brand new release from Bitchin Bajas (aka Cooper Crane of Cave, Warhammer 48K, etc). technically the follow up to his great LP "Tones and Zones" on Important Records. "Tones and Zones" seemed more an homage to JD Emmanuel style synth explorations whereas this tape (self-released in an edition of 30, soon to be re-issued on vinyl I believe) moves more into the Klaus Schulze/Tangerine Dream style.

in keeping with his previous LP the tape consists of a handful of shorter pieces. water wrackets was composed as a film score and without even knowing it shows. all the pieces convey a specific mood but also create a cohesive whole. it's nice to hear him step out of the pure synth zone and add percussion and other pop elements. quality stuff.

pretty sure the tape is OOP at this point. Permanent Records is the only place to get it, check and they might have a few copies left. listen to it here
