    <description>[traduction fran&#231;aise non disponible] Spool is very pleased to announce the
    release of Dearness, featuring Fred Frith, certainly one of the great contributors to
    adventurous new music, John Oswald, (in)famous for his landmark plunderphonics work, and Anne
    Bourne, who carries her sense of musical adventure along with her cello gracefully across the
    musical spectrum. This concert recording captures the trio at the Rivoli in Toronto, Canada in
    1998, kicking up a sonic dust storm. Recorded live at the Rivoli, Toronto, August 1998. Concert
    produced by Rough Idea. Recording facilitated by Phil Strong. Mastered by Myles Boisen at
    Headless Buddha Mastering Labs, Oakland (CA, USA).</description>

    <description>[traduction fran&#231;aise non disponible] Three individuals from different
    musical backgrounds (Jim Black, guitar, electronics; Ben Wilson, drum machine, electronics;
    Jess Conn-Potegal, turntables, keys, electronics), each with his own unique vision, meet at an
    Otomo Yoshihide/Ruins concert and the resultant collision becomes Broken Record Chamber. BRC
    ploughs a new sound field, through which meanders various sonic life forms, not excluding the
    patrons of the Epic hole-in-the-wall, The Sugar Refinery, where much of this was recorded.
    Imagine, if you can, a garage band version of Otomo chucking a used record store down the
    stairs. Broken Record Chamber was inaugurated in September 1998, barely moments after the smoke
    and debris were cleared in the wake of a momentous double bill featuring Otomo Yoshihide,
    Martin Tetrault and Ruins. Since that time Broken Record Chamber have participated in the
    Taking Wing Improvised Music Series, and have performed live over the air waves from the
    studios of Vancouver&#8217;s cooperative radio station (CFRO). They have also been prominently
    featured on CBC Radio&#8217;s &#8217;Brave New Waves.&#8217; Like true grandchildren of
    McLuhan, BRC are at home in the global village, where instant access to all things electric is
    the norm. Drawing from acid jazz funk to pop rock, from punk to ambient electronic to
    improvisation, and from large ensemble jazz to 20th century classical, the diverse and combined
    talents of Jim Black, Jess Conn-Potegal and Ben Wilson have coalesced into a categorical
    no-man&#8217;s land: an urban/environmental, signal-to-noise, DIY improv-ambient adventure
    kit.</description>
