Up in the mountainous region North of San Francisco is a place called Chill Valley. There is an artificial Intelligence called the 'Octopus' there, swimming in the deep waters of the imagination . It has been formulating ideas taken from the world of the deep unconscious , treading the thin 3D surface tension between ambient-noise , fat chunky beats and labyrinthine rhythmic overlays , spanning the sonic spectrum of environmental music composition and expressionistic chaotic information retrieval.
what ?
Some of the various themes of this, the third in the Octopus triptych (so far) are as follows...
Mutant life forms , the natural world of land, sea and air , the danger of aerial bombardment when you are engaged in tank warfare , 60's cinematography , coca leaf chewing Columbian elders , one armed drummers , glue sniffing , explosions , gritty ,noisy distorted beats and haunting ambient environmental sequencing set in a tangy bouillabaisse of deconstructed chaotic information...
why?
a message from the creator of the 'Octopus' Mr Charles Uzzell Edwards....
(The main idea of this epic project (this cd is maxed out baby!) is to present music that contains so much information in many diverse forms so that it all becomes one cohesive entity with an intelligence of its own . It is hoped that this music will communicate many ideas to the listener through the wonders of the collective unconscious that we all share in common.
Its like having all of the information in the world channeled through your brain in the time it takes to say om. (plus, you can dance to it)
huh?
its a big weird wonderful world , so be yourself.
Here is the soundtrack to your craziest, most satisfying dreams.
