A slowly evolving music project featuring This Heat drummer/lynchpin Charles Hayward, Pinski Zoo and Crackle bassist Nick Doyne-Ditmas and the words, voice and textures of avant-vocalist Viv Corringham, whose music walks a tightrope between song, improvisation and sound-as-sound.
Reviews: "Their debut was recorded in just four days and is one of the most mesmerizing avant-jazz albums that Notion has heard for some time." [Notion] "An utterly impressive début, 'White World' is the exciting sound of three musicians tuned perfectly to each other's sonic free-thinking." [Rock A Rolla] "...fascinating and hypnotic music." [The Wire] "When this particular threesome converges, the result is a music that only exists as a very particular collision. The roots of their soundscapes are inextricably entwined with the German avant-groove combo Can, producer Adrian Sherwood's output and The Slits, in their dubbier incarnation... ...A lightness of rhythmic touch is the main character of these improvised pieces."
