And did we just mention Egg – just as well since the Baking Research half of the equation take it upon themselves to kick back, bliss out and immerse in the delights of Egg’s ’a visit to Newport hospital’ only to emerge from out of the other side having served up a stonking big bearded smoking cool hulking prog pronged slab of stoner lounge funk – seriously I kid you not.
TWISTED TRANSISTOR REMIX FULL
Goes without saying that every self respecting record collection should have about its wares the Pie’s frankly fried ‘mechanisms part 1’ full length from last year – in our humbled opinion a progressive psych overdrive whose warping multi weaving tapestry was wound from the eclectic threads of Floyd, Soft Machine, Triumvirat and Egg – word is afoot that ’part 2’ is in incubation mode.
By far the weirdest and most out there of the summer season quartet, this freaky child of yesterday comes pressed up in a limited edition strictly restricted to just 800 coloured wax 7’s and finds the split persona of Cranium Pie’s creative head space splintering as they share groove space with their experimental dark half the baking research station. Fresh from the release of the acclaimed ’sorrow’s children’ and ’head music’ compilations – see both and for our considered appraisals, the FdM crew return to the fray with four impeccably perfect 7 inch releases – the first of which goes a lot like this….Ĭranium Pie / The Baking Research Station – ‘split’ (Fruits de mer). Priding themselves on a strictly vinyl only output they’ve rekindled the spirit of classic imprints of yore with each release arriving fashioned in limited runs. I reckon they’re Chelsea fans….Anyway enough grumbling – Fruits de Mer and its extended family of imprints have proven something of a cult phenomena in recent years, blending a healthy diet of psych, kraut and progressive rock they’ve become the watch label of choice for collectors and purists alike. We start this particular missive dear hearts with the seasons latest ear wares from the much admired fruits de mer imprint – fresh from our disappointment at not securing one of the rare as hen’s teeth white labels in their super duper competition – we were minded to swerve these blighters – but hey were bigger and better than that and anyhow even if we do say so ourselves our entry was miles better than the winning entry and just to prove we’ve reprinted it at the end of this little soiree – so judge for yourselves. Late again – details on the flip side of this this extended play….
