• STEVE PARRY / COLIN POTTER - 'Womb' CD

Recorded onto tape in 1981, this is the first release of the legendary album "Womb" by Steve Parry (Neu Elektrikk, Hywl Nofio) and Colin Potter (Nurse With Wound, Monos, Fovea Hex).

"Womb remained unreleased other than a few cassette tapes given to friends. In 2014 I re-discovered the album master tapes while having a house clear-out. The Ampex 406 master tapes were severely damaged due to natural deterioration, the original tape had to undergo a time-consuming restoration process. Thankfully the project was salvageable and the music was transferred to digital. I must admit listening now to these recordings I am reminded of the creative surge and ebullient enthusiasm for making the music. It was indeed an exciting time" (Steve Parry).

Instruments / devices used in the recordings by Parry & Potter included: saw, plastic bucket and plastic tube, water, alarm clock, cotton rags, metal bars, electric drill, drum machine, bongo drums, analogue synth & sequencer, field recordings, electric, acoustic & bass guitars, flute, keyboards, found sounds, comb, and voice.

"The sonic pairing of two important figures from the post-industrial genre... sitting somewhere between sparse experimental electronica, moody-to-unsettling sound-scaping, and generally grimly atmospheric sound craft... ... Womb has a fairly timeless quality of both disquiet and unease" (Musique Machine).

Ltd x 500 copies with 8-page booklet.
