Unsure who this Bill Nelson fella is. Did he not sing in Be-Bop deluxe? My old manager used to love them. But then again, he was a total wanker. Oh? It's not that Bill? Not William De-Luxe ala Be-Bop? Ah....that explains why I feel like I'm hearing something akin to a digitized tropical bird's lonely love craw amplified over this bed of twinkly chiming audio sand. Then Uncle & Auntie drone land from their long haul flight & start humming quietly over the melee. Uncle then unpacks his suitcase and unveils this new contraption he's bought which sounds like a weird church organ drone in a little box. It's called the God Machine but it sounds a bit pants compared to a real full-size throbbing organ, but no worries cos it marries well with all the other caterwauling tropical/insectoid noise that's been building steadily as I write this. It would clear a party in 10 seconds this tape but I really rather like it.....

Limited edition of 500
