“Slowly Askild Haugland expands his territory. His early records were all about guitars and treatments of that through his bunch of
cassette players and tape-machines, since some time he uses other instruments, such as shortwave radio and on this new 7" a
glockenspiel. There was a time when I would the word 'erosion' for such a process of sound: vaguely reminding the listener of the original sound, but it has eroded, not through wind and time, but by re-recording the material over and over. On side A a particular noisy drone piece followed by a piece of processed sound of rain. It's a noisy piece but one with a clear and interesting structure. On the b-side the glockenspiel can be recognized as such, even when it seems a bit slowed down. Over the course of this track, time and how time changes seems to play a role. It seems to be slowing down just a little bit more and this play makes a nice piece. Good to see Taming Power moving in such directions.” [FdW/Vital Weekly]
