ANTBOY IS INCREDIBLY PLEASED TO ANNOUNCE THE RELEASE OF:
UNCLE. E
"Deep in the Bushes"
Antboy08 - CDR
"UNCLE. E' is the moniker for Tim Pledger's electronic musical pursuits, with "Deep in the bushes" being UNCLE. E's third release. It is resamplings of "Deep in the woods" from "bohjass' 4th album "high st. 3070..." and is concerned with the nature of the political atmosphere that is ungulfing the world at the moment. It is a statement and meditation about the ineptitude of politics where so many are allowed so little when so few are allowed so much.

===================================================================================
Timothy Pledger (aka: UNCLE.E ) is a Melbourne based composer, musician and film artist. Tim composes acoustic, electric, electronic and orchestral works using a diverse range of forms and materials from highly minimalistic and personal to expressive and extreme emotional structures. Timothy is deeply involved in the tonal and emotional aspects of rhythmic harmony as they move against each other in blocks and waves of sound.
Tim's musical, filmic and written works are concerned with the landscape of the culture and politics of the environment they are created within, and are therefore personal indictments or appraisals of certain aspects of society.
Tim's longest running ensemble, "bohjass", has been critically acclaimed both in Australia and abroad and many of Australia's great improvisors have played at some stage in this ensemble.

* 'Happiness will befall' - CD (Cronica022) €10
Happiness Will Befall is the latest full-length recording from Australian composer Lawrence English. Collected across four countries over two months, the record bares the marks of shifting surroundings, unfamiliar sound marks and echoed memories from New Zealand, Australia, Singapore and South India.
The record was composed largely using guitar and computer with some additional live instrumentation (electronics, cassettes, turntables) layered into the compositions.

'Ever since I went diving at Talabudgerra Creek just south of the Gold Coast, when on holidays with my family in my youth, I've had a curiosity about the sounds that exist below the surface of the water. I'd always hear this clicking and chirping whenever I went diving there - it sounded so unnatural, like the crackle of a record slowly spinning endlessly. This curiosity was ignited again in 2003 after diving on the Barrier Reef with a friend from New York - this time the crackling was almost deafening, and once I was back on the mainland I started researching again - the sound I could hear was fish communicating. It was amazing and within a few weeks I'd hunted out a hydrophone to facilitate collecting some of these sounds that had ignited my interest so long ago. After a week or so in New Zealand during July 2004 making recordings of a variety of marshes, lakes and creeks (which produced some nice results, although much of NZ's waterways are almost devoid of life), I attended a residency project in Adelaide. While I had a few days free I made my way to the Glenelg Pier to make some oceanic recordings. Needless to say I was just awe-struck once I put the hydrophone in the water - the sound was just so completely unnatural - snaps, crackles, pops, chirps, buzzes and all manner of other electronic sounding tones. I used some of these recordings as the basis for some radio work and then in December, I had some time free again to get back to recording and needless to say I was keen to do some more underwater work. So I headed out late at night to a number of waterholes, rivers and ponds around Brisbane. Apart from seeing a giant water rat, a fox chasing ducks in the moonlight and a range of other unusual activities that tend to reveal themselves the moment you sit down still and quiet in natural environments, I was fortunate to collect some wonderfully synthetic sounding underwater environments. Listening to these environments the unusual qualities of them truly amaze me - there's a whole other sound world existing just inches below the water's surface and these recordings document just a few of the moments going on unheard each day and night'.
