Notes
The cassette tape contains recordings of three performances curated by Fritz Welch for 20 Albert Road, Glasgow in August 2022:
6 August. Fritz Welch with multi-instrumentalist Jessica Argo, who played theremin. A combination of voice and movement to generate sound.
13 August. EGO DEPLETION (Adam Campbell and Fritz Welch) with special guest Benicio Del Trainwreck (aka David Moré). A celebration of the broken detritus of late capitalist auto- consumption. Modular synth and an arsenal of found percussion objects amplified by resonation chambers crafted from frozen fish containers.
20 August. A solo sonic action by Fritz Welch that unfolded in relative slow motion over a multi-hour period using voice, bass drum, objects, text scrolls and various lo-tech special effects.
