In the Privacy of Your Own Home [WIT001]

In the Privacy of Your Own Home is the first release of both BBR and Mark Ward's Where is This project. Spanning musicial divides, the record shifts through various experimental styles whilst (mostly) being underpinned by melody, or "music", as we like to call it, (well) hidden underneath the noise/feedback/fuzz/synths.

Fucked drum samples, psychotic cut-up piano, microphone feedback noise and a lo-fi style mixed with high production values permeate this release. Notable tracks include Reprise at the Betty Ford, the catchiest song on the record - which is no mean feat considering it's full of bass rumbles and loops, Flight to Retie C Open Not which is reminiscent of Chris Carter's solo album 'The Space Between', the improv rock of Ecstasy (Kink) and the high pitched, industrial noise squall of In the Privacy of Your Own Home.
