” The poet speaks with words . That may sound like a truism, but the truth is that there are mysteries in words. It is no accident that the greatest mystery of all, the LOGOS, may be translated as meaning, Word. When they speak with new words, and new word forms, no one can understand them – this is what the troubadours recognized. Before a society can become receptive to a new idea, a new vocabulary must be created. The old vocabularies can speak only of the old things: they are like rusty railway tracks which run always in the same direction. A new vocabulary is required for new things, for new directions. The true poet finds it very hard to speak to his contemporaries, as he is using and forging a language which will be fully understood only by future generations …” – Mark Hedsel, ‘ The Zelator ‘ The Mental Anguish opus on Tapegerm that deploys numbers of my loops and vocal material – mine and that of michael dent, with whom I have worked a lot the past few years – has buzzed me considerably. The work put into these pieces – all the collaborations and remixes thereabouts – is marvelous. Just so you know I am not slacking – as if! – plans now revolve around the eventual release of ” Recollage 1: Loose Change ” – that collects recent original material for another iTunes blow-out. In addition I will release an EP of collaborations with TG stalwart Dave Fuglewicz , whose reinventions of my work are stunning. This iTunes release-to-be, to be entitled “Sleep on the Edge EP” after one of its tracks, should, knowing the iTunes queue, see digital daylight in about 2025
