cover notes...
The Newt Hounds project was originally an offshoot/concept by the
brothers Alan & Steve Freeman of Alto Stratus. The debut "The
Poignant Device" kind of lampooned the Nurse With Wound ethic and style
of sonic art composition. This project started life as some left-over ideas
from the second The Newt Hounds album "Loose Nuts" released in 2007,
a 99 track collection of sound fragments and compositions running a wide
gamut of styles.
As the years went on, with a vast
number of new recycled loops and collages amassed, it all became more of a
personal project than a third Newt Hounds album. Thus "Topology Of A
Phantom City" turned into a new concept, partly Nurse With Wound
inspired, but also a dedication to the surreal French cinema of the 1970's
and the innovators in musique-concrete at the INA-GRM.
