Michael Ridge “Broken and Battery Powered”

QCS_199 Michael Ridge “Broken and Battery Powered” digital download

Stripped back noise/drone created whilst recovering from ankle surgery at home and zoned out on opioids! A small portable set was created exclusively using battery-powered gear, all four tracks use a combination of a Stylophone GEN X-1, Rucci Minimal Drone, Atari Punk Console, Olympus Pearlcorder S701, CMC A09HH cassette recorder, tape loops and Marshall MS-2 micro amp. Recorded onto a Zoom H4n. The artwork was created using a Gameboy Camera!

This will be a digital only offering on Quagga Curious Sounds as I still have very limited mobility at the time of release!
