More Info

"Rare Single auf dem renommierten Stockholmer Label (Auflagenhöhe unbekannt, aber viele sinds nicht), die noch einmal die ganze Klasse des leider nicht mehr existenten US-Projekts zeigt: atmende, schwirrend-organische Atmosphärenklänge, rumpelnd-luftig (Seite A) und konkreter-geräuschaft (Seite B). Zwei Stücke von 1996, full-colour cover. Key Ransone aka SMALL CRUEL PARTY soll übrigens jetzt als Koch in Paris arbeiten – wenn seine Gerichte ebenso „composed“ sind wie seine Klänge, dann dürften sie köstlich sein!" [Drone Rec. info 2004]

“ Small Cruel Party is no longer active in music, so I was kinda surprised to find him here. The two recordings on his 7” are from 1996 and were recorded 'in a ravine in Seattle next to the house of Jim Woodring for a proposed and unrealized collaboration with this visual artist'. Unearthly low rumbles on one side and more high pitched sounds and crackling wood sounds on the other. Both pieces are classic Small Cruel Party pieces and show us the sadness of seeing this guy leave music (although he now works as a cook, that makes it up a little bit I guess). “[Frans de Waard, Vital Weekly 310.]
