Profile

The Gorse demo CDR arrived at V/Vm care of my online friend Maf. He enthused over the audio when he mailed me about them and as soon as i heard the disc i just knew it needed a full release on V/Vm Test.

These masters of natural disasters hail from Cornwall and 'let the gorse be with you' had been doing the rounds at Rephlex and in London but no-one wanted to release this crazy audio. It is very Cornish, songs about Farmers, references to Michael Barrymore, an ode to Cornish Pasty's and a tribute to 80's shite were all captured on their stunning debut opus.

The quote on the cover by Aphex Twin "this music will make you mad" is a genuine quote and indeed it will, mad in a good way.

One day the Gorse will come out to play live outside of their Cornish haven. The last time i spoke to Tim (one half of Gorse) he told me they had just bought a new keyboard. One day we may hear the fruits of their audio labour.
