Description

This is a rare vinyl test pressing of the Dais Records release of experimental innovator Drekka's album Unbeknownst To The Participants At Hand


"Unbeknownst follows this with more collaged chaos, this time hewn from Anderson’s archive of recordings he has made with others, be it through live performance or home-based sessions. This strategy resists naming those ‘participants’ as if to emphasise the extent to which Anderson has mutated their contributions into works even the players wouldn’t recognise. Lulled into a false sense of insecurity the real evil is to come however, when the first side’s horror film ambience is shattered by three pieces of harsh, largely electrical, noiseworks. Bristling high frequencies and low-end buzzes spew wildly across the stereo image, initially providing a bracing contrast but become irritating by the side’s midpoint before concluding with a hot pool of concentrically phasing engines and wind chimes of hellish proportions." - The Quietus
