Album Cover
Biota
Tumble

Album UK 1989 on ReR Megacorp label
Electronic and Rock (Abstract, Avant-garde, Experimental, Art Rock)

Packaged in a jewel case with an illustrated 16-page booklet that includes artwork, credits, release information, and tracklist. This record combines two dinstinct projects recorded between autumn 1988 & spring 1989. Tracks 1 to 12 comprise the first of these, track 14 the second. Recorded & mixed: Dys Studio / Fort Collins Colorado Kit drums recorded: Source & Savour Studios / Oakland California A period of digital silence (track 13) separates the two distinct Biota projects presented here. "Ghost Shirt" is a remix (with no additional source recording) of "Operator For Cataract" and a subsection of "Shadows Appear To Do." To enable direct comparison, we suggest programming track 14/index 1, track 10/indexes 1-2-3, and track 5/index 2 as a chain, in that order. We are grateful to Michael Gerzon for his ideas concerning the CD medium's potential.
