about

Ecstasy: "exalted state of good feeling” or “a state of rapture which stupefies the body while the soul contemplates divine things”

Scientists believe all the gold on Earth formed in supernovae and neutron star collisions that occurred before the solar system formed. Gold sank to the Earth's core during the planet's formation. It is only accessible today as a result of asteroid bombardment.

Since 2012 or so, the quartet of Steve Hadley(Acetone), Jason Yates, Senon Williams(Dengue Fever)and Mark Lightcap(Acetone)have been getting together to hang out and play music, first in Senon’s garage, then in Steve’s living room. This group of recordings are drawn from hundreds of hours of material recorded over the last ten years, improvised in private with no intention of repetition, rehearsing, playing gigs, or producing “product” - feeling around in the dark for some new patch of musical ground to inhabit for a fleeting moment: a spirited conversation between friends. It has been described by some as “garage prog”, by others as an ecstatic process, employing the tools of Rock as a manual form of asteroid bombardment, freeing the space metal from the planetary core.
