The Hafler Trio: negentropy.

many are the terrible copies of this to be had from the ether, and now here is the original, non-vinyl matter, from the DAT master production. this release was done as a favour. the story is something like this: Mr A. Newton & Your Humble Narrator were enmeshed in various professional ways to do with Clock DVA and TAGC. we even toured together - The Hafler Trio, then TAGC, then together as Psychophysicist. YHN did live sound and bottle-washing for the Fab Clocks. and the idea formed in the noddle of one C.M.Von Hausswolf to make a nifty set of 11 CD's with wallets, all by 11 different people or entities. and so it commenced. would Mr Newton consent to doing the eleventh in the series? of course he would. and the waiting for this commenced as the other productions advanced mightily. and that waiting continued. and verily, continued. it would not be unkind to say that said Mr. Newton has never been one for meeting deadlines, but as this series was being printed and paid for, the elusive 11th last letter was still missing leading to mounting panic in the soon-to-be-vacated offices inhabited by Mr. Hausswolff. and so the subscribers received, indeed, ten artefacts, with the promise of that from Mr. N. to be forthcoming. only it was, truth be told, not. at this point, this writer and commentator remembered that while in Stockholm on the pre-internet aforementioned tripartite tour, to while away the wee hours at EMS studios, Mr. N. noodled at the pianoforte grand somewhat aimlessly (he could not play this device) while, nevertheless, recording these exploratory fumblings for posterity. or something. and so it came to pass, gentle reader, that YHN stepped into the breach and completed said promise of another by using the detritus of one vacant evening for the construction of the audio edifice before you. all other sounds recorded at Chalmers University, Göteborg, by A.M.Mckenzie. although originally an impeccable Porky Prime Cut, some of the frequencies did not make it to the subsequently produced platters, and so the delight which may now be experienced is the restoration and indeed revelation of those frequencies.
