Bleep

Opal Tapes label head Stephen Bishop drops a new LP on Helm’s Alter imprint, a seriously odd record with a seriously odd title to match. The LP is typically full of mystery, with tripped out noise abstractions, paranoid sound collages and warped dub rhythms aplenty. Just one of a wave of British musicians building upon the foundations set by Radiophonic Workshop electronics, Conrad Schnitzler’s industrial meanderings and Psychic TV inspired maverickism, Basic House isn’t afraid of confronting his listeners and forcing them deeper into his sonic world.
