Barefoot 1999
AU$23.00
"...a dream team of Sydney musicians...ambitious diversity...a remarkably
relaxed and seamless flow of ideas.
Their knack is being able to put a jazz spin on grooves from around
the globe- South Africa, the Caribbean, Latin America- in a sunny,
light-spirited way that belies the killer status of the players.
This is jazz in a straw hat and Hawaiian shirt...sensuous and
joyous music...a (barefoot) walk in the park." AUSTRALIAN FINANCIAL

Life on Earth 1997
AU$23.00
"...another charming gem. This tightly-focused group...takes multiple influences
and stirs them with a swizzle stick to produce a signature sound which somehow
makes perfect sense...an endlessly adventurous (and highly danceable)
effort... already on this critic's short list for the best of '98!"

"The richness, diversity and accessibility of The catholics suffuses every track. It is their virtuosity, imagination and the inventiveness of Lloyd Swanton's writing....
which makes this music so successful....no written description can do justice to this music...search out a copy of this superb album"

Solo Live 1994
AU$23.00
"Tony Buck takes his STEIM interactive Drum/Perc/Sampler
system through it's paces, not that listening you'd know where
the hell the sound was coming from most of the time. An interesting
set of pieces by one of the more interesting drummers around on
that noise/electronic/rock fringe, and the only one I can think
of to use triggered samples in a way that really works..."

Multiverse
AU$23.00
Here Peril is Tony Buck (drums, samples, machines), Otomo Yoshihide
(turntables, guitar), Sheridan (Guitar) and Thierry Fosmale (Bass).
"Strong ordered chaos at its best, where real and cooked
sounds disappear into one another: the difficult art of colour
profusion without brown sludge, and a model of maximum information
and mutation that continually surprises and stimulates. A prodigious
work and highly recommended..."

astroPERIL 1996
AU$23.00
Tony Buck (drums, samples, machines), Kai Wolf (guitar), Alex Nowitz (Bass & Voice).
The Peril story continues in Europe with this line-up, mixing the
signature solid hardcore and cross-genre cut-ups with more splintery
improvisations. A strong, colourful and varied recording....

Music of the Little Red Spiders 1997
AU$23.00
Tony Buck (percussion, samples, programming); Andy (Ex) (electric &
acoustic guitar); Joe Williamson (acoustic bass); Stevie Wishart
(hurdy-gurdy, violin).
Covering a wide range of dynamics and textures, the music of the
Little Red Spiders moves from whisper quiet, abstract soundscapes
into slowly metamorphosing, driving and robust walls of noise.
A seductive journey into diverse aural extremes, combining drones,
trance and texture. "A response to a need to be centred,
organic, sensual..."
