Weird ‘field recording’ of what Cooper describes as “urban exotica”, recorded on his first ever trip to the USA live at The No-Neck Blues Band’s Hint House art space. Cooper is best known as an improvising guitarist working on the most abstract fringes of post-jazz thought, but recent years have seen him consolidate a vision that would incorporate electronics as well as various aspects of exotica. This set kinda combines them all, even though there are no guitar moments at all. This was the second set he played at the NNCK house, this time using only a sampler keyboard, a Yamaha sampling unit with pre-recorded samplers, a mini disc with some tropical ambience and a pitch shifter delay pedal. The recording flits between audio documentation of room sounds and activities, tropical jungle sounds and orchestras of bird calls and cyclical electronics in a way that is subtly dislocating. Recorded in 2000, limited vinyl pressing on black wax.
