FORTHCOMING RELEASES:
OCH051LCD LONGSTONE ‘Kabuki’.
West Country electronic experimentalists Longstone return to Ochre Records for the release of their 6th studio album, Kabuki. Recorded in the autumn of 2008, Kabuki has six sections with a total duration of 43 minutes and 36 seconds . All six members of the current live band participated in the studio recordings, making this the most complete Longstone band recording to date. If you were at any of last year’s gigs, then this album comes very close to representing the recent live sound of the band. The experimental electronica of Mike Cross and Mike Ward blend organically with improvised woodwind , percussion and guitar, creating a fascinating suite of music - ranging from alien soundscapes , through to Krautrock infused, beat driven workouts.

“We started by working up some new tracks as a live band during rehearsals and then recorded the results, eventually recording the entire set as a single take. After a few attempts at this the best version was chosen to which were added extra sax and percussion overdubs could be added. We feel this approach allowed us to capture the improvised nature of the Longstone live sound for the CD.”whilst still retaining the flexibility of a studio recording.
