New tape: Mark Barrage – Surplus Behaviour

MARK BARRAGE
Surplus Behaviour (CS/DL)


Hard-paste electronic collage and isolationist composition made in Brisbane and Melbourne bedrooms in the early 2000s by Australian producer Mark Barrage. Secret, psychosexual arrangements for low-bit recorded organ, synth, primitive drum machine and consumer electronics rendered heavy by rudimentary computer edits, thickly fogged production tactics and a zero-budget.

This is complex and dark stuff in the spirit of Australian electronic mavericks Garry Bradbury and J.G. Thirlwell, made in the last days of private recording and personal occultism.

Release date: 10 Oct 2014
