about

This album's lengthy title is a dedication to Danish surreal artist Wilhelm Freddie, a bizarre little-known Dali-esque talent. Not that the music is surreal though, albeit highly creative for a multi-instrumental album created on a 4-track. Dave lists a whole plethora of influences, although I was instantly reminded of the early groundbreaking works of Deuter, with equal doses of Stephan Micus and Terry Riley thrown into the mix. Of course there are many things you'll hear totally unique to David Powell, particularly his use of souncrafting, with some really strange fuzz and modulation processing.
