HASTINGS OF MALAWI - AXIAL INCIDENTS (THE X-MAS ALBUM) (LP)

special offer "Finally and just in time for Christmas 2020 Hastings of Malawi release their third LP - the antithesis of Christmas albums. In this bleak vinyl mid winter the sleigh bells have been replaced with twelve handsaws, two motors and a dustbin, a duet between a walrus and an autistic child on an aeroplane, a chorus of pigs and Tasmanian devils, sounds from Japan, China, Africa, Italy, India and Hawaii, digital voice synthesis, sound sculptures, randomly generated music, geiger counters, free improvisation and a rocket engine. As with their first two albums this record continues to explore themes of communication and communication breakdown." (label info)
