A collaborative album between two UK esoteric artists: the legendary NOCTURNAL EMISSIONS (Nigel Ayers) and FRAG (Stephen Āh Burroughs of Tunnels Of Āh / ex-Head Of David). Recorded December 2020, this release showcases the minimal shimmerings of Nocturnal Emissions meeting the abrasive insistence of Frag.
"Esoteric Sedition takes its cues from Nigel Ayers' most recent sounds, of minimal works and soundtracks for film and television... Here ringing and shimmering pipe like atmospherics are shadowed by subdued grumbling textures. Electroacoustics, ricocheting gong chime and clatter of treated metallic textures, spiralling noise reverberations, haunting synths, the incessant crackle and click of a radiation detecting Geiger counter, a torrent of noise, glinting and glistening ambient electronics... Frag deploy noise and textures, which accompany and embellish, shroud and shadow the minimal synth work of Nocturnal Emissions. Nocturnal Emissions may have the longer pedigree in experimental and (post-) industrial music, but I consider Stephen Āh Burroughs as Tunnels of Āh and FRAG as one of the most expressive and accomplished proponents of whatever industrial music has become today. Esoteric Sedition is a wonderful distillation of both their approaches" (Compulsion Online).
