Now for some proper weird bastard music. Wyntr Ravn (Whaaaaat?) have chucked out a CD on Deserted Village called Daylight Raving that initially sounds like the fucking Orb made by ADD suffering feral kids off their heads on mushies & spesh. Then it goes into monged, trippy overdrive a few minutes in. Seemingly backwards masked beats, all manner of crazy whirrings & tinkles. It sounds like a musical clothes horse caught in a Wizard of Oz pinball machine, proper freaky with tape manipulation reaching the point where spool meltdown may occur & your head just falls off in a fit of ecstatic confusion. Then we're onto the lo-fi guitar plucking recorded from the next room but one with Half Man Half Biscuit's retarded wasp keyboard revived from the dead. Then it's digital paintball time whilst dad mows the lawn with a custard dishwasher and the dog eats your Wolf Eyes records. Yes, this is bloody off it's shitter is this CD. And there's more insane clangings, guttural keyboard splutterings and rudimenatary percussion to come. But I'm not going to tell you about that.....Excellent, in the most delightfully messy DIY fashion. Ideas all over the shop, literally, making for some truly original, wonky spellbinding genius.

Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.

What their label says...

Wyntr Ravn is a duo of Jane Austen (Avanti Maria, Currer Bells) and Gavin Prior (Toymonger, United Bible Studies). Their Debut album has arrived. It's a dysthopic concept album called 'Daylight Raving'. The flesh is weak but the body and brain are still twitching, refusing to stop raving. Flashes of the night before intrude on the victim's solipsistic brainfreeze; a fews bars of beats, a lost loop, muted voices of friends now also trapped in their own private hell yet only inches away............you can leave the rave, but the rave will never leave you.
