Nurse With Wound
A Missing Sense

Compil. UK 1997 on United Dairies label
Electronic (Abstract, Drone, Experimental)

CD release of earlier NWW recordings: track 1 from the LP A Missing Sense / Rasa. track 2 from the LP Alas The Madonna Does Not Function. track 3 from the LP Ostranenie 1913. A Missing Sense was originally conceived as a private tape to accompany my taking of LSD. When in that particular state, Robert Ashley's Automatic Writing was the only music I could actually experience without feeling claustrophobic and paranoid. We played it endlessly; it seemed to become part of the room, perfectly blending with the late night city ambience and the 'breathing' of the building. I decided to make my own version using the basic structure of Ashley's masterpiece, but making it more personal, adding natural sound that I could hear in my environment. It should be played at very low volume. Swansong is a vocal piece which was spewed out after watching a documentary on the American A-Bomb tests off the Bikini Islands which left me sad, helpless and fucking angry - an ocean of death. Made in England Packaged in a jewel case with clear tray and 4-page booklet.
