What their label says...

In late 2004, Jack Allet started playing as Spoono and has been releasing a steady stream of limited run cdrs ever since. While also a member of tape-fog vocal-splatter improv duo/trio Towering Breaker and anxiety-ridden rock quartet Catnap, as Spoono Jack can generally be found performing as a solo acoustic guitar picker. Evidently though, this release takes a very different approach. 'Sea Breeze' is full of layers of distorted electric sound, modal feedback manipulation, guitar abuse etc...(plus some double drum kit action from Catnap cohort Ben Pruess on the title track). The last track, 'I Have Dodged Through The Parking Lots...', was originally written to accompany a short film installation by Hannah Ellul, with each of the 6 voices split to 6 seperate speakers around the room. Hopefully the stereo mix presented here works in its own right, outside the context of the film. Other recent Spoono releases include collaborative improvised cdr albums by both Les Enfants and Bela Emerson, plus a split cdr EP with -a+M on Woodland Recordings.
