Dead Voices on Air
New Words Machine



I recorded this in November and December of 1992. I sent a tape to Gerald Belanger of DoV and he licensed it to Cleopatra.I also gave a tape early on in December of 92 to cEvin Key and we jammed together.I finished it off in the spring of 94,with three tracks that featured cEvin.I had to wait nearly a year to release it..The first two tracks were some of my first recordings after arriving in Vancouver.Clancy Dennehy,an original member of DVOA mixed Vuls,which also appeared on the compilation,Ambient Rituals.That track's important to me.I havn't done a concert without using parts of that song.At that time i was using radios alot,which I would process crudely and switch on and off at random. Some of this record was recorded without a processor,before I bought my SE50.My friend Mark Pilon helped me with the sleeve.The cd face itself is a picture of my Brother,John Spybey,a childhood friend and myself,aged around 3.It was taken in the street where I was born,Chapel Street,Marske-By-The-Sea,in what was then called the North Riding of Yorkshire.My Grandmother still lives in that street.
