The operating name of New Yorker Al Margolis, If, Bwana were a constant presence in the cassette days. This new record, Bird Brain Bath (Klanggalerie 7") is a wonderfully creaky slab of experimental noise high jinks. One side is entitled "Bird Brain", the other "Bird Bath". Each piece is eight minutes long and if they are played simultaneously they create the record's title tune. Using bird song, blasts from a virtual air rifle, keyboards and dweezly effects of all sorts, Margolis creates two funny and exciting soundscapes that'll make you think of those days spent longing for a few blank Maxells of your own. - Byron Coley
Format
