ben reynolds: music is the music language - cd (ikuisuus, 2005)

12 tracks - total 41:09 mins

in the spring months of 2005 ben reynolds began taking yet more jabs from mankind’s collective unconscious and turning them into sounds that love being in your ears. they have since been collected under the title ‘music is the music language’ and kindly unleashed by new finnish label ikuisuus. this is the first cd release from ben after a torrent of cdrs bearing his name came flowing from various corners of the globe throughout 2004/2005.

the sounds contained within the present release were moulded with less care but an equal if not greater amount of love as previous creations; the age old fight between the human controlling impulse and the natural (non) laws of chance ceased momentarily and a brief collaboration between the usually warring factions ensued. the results were welcomed by the overseer of this collaboration as a job well done and has since continued to pursue methods of creation whereby this fight will be done with once and for all.

as for how all this sounds, that’s for your ears to decide.

ben reynolds/john w. fail ‘uncabineted’ duo - ii cd-r

the follow up to last year’s uncabineted collaboration was recorded in preparation for an appearance at the hard gaan festival in belgium and holland last october. fail’s interest in tape work finds a welcome complement in reynolds’ electric guitar wanderings; the pieces are all atmosphere, recording both the sounds and the sounds’ interaction with thin walls.

ben reynolds/john w. fail: “uncabineted”

ben reynolds and john w. fail collated several recordings to compile uncabineted, covering the period between september 2005 (when they met) and march 2006.

reynolds work is well-documented on labels such as ikuisuss, memoirs of an aesthete, time-lag and 267 lattajjaa while fail has dabbled in myriad projects including lied music, intro to pterodactyl and land.

ranging from screaming acoustics to dirgy fuzzfests, the real document is that of experience, joy and camaraderie.

late 2006 release; the first on singing knives; a young u.k. imprint focusing on subterranean music activities from (mainly) the leeds & glasgow scenes...

standout tracks from tirath singh nirmala (awesome, gained, eastern-tinged voice/violin monolithery - really loving this stuff !!!), the michael (mick) flower band (driving, angus maclise-like tribal thud & tanpura/organ tranceout) alex neilson’s directing hand (big, thumping toms, buzz, & loner vocals), vibracathedral orchestra’s bridget hayden (scraping hurdy-gurdy overdubs), & chora (almost psf-sounding in-the-red psych-haze...)

a very nice set featuring a wise range of sound/styles from quiet, bedroom folk to full on harsh instrumental noise; an admirably effective survey of contemporary psychedelia from “up north ...”
