Mr. Cobain spins another web of baffling words and equally odd sentiments on the Amorphous blog...

Today we is added to the Electric Picnic Festival in lovely count Laois ireland in September in what promises to be a night of special vibe on the Body and Soul stage . . . .
Rumour and hot gossip . . .looks like there could be a hot London launch party for MPB 2 in September on a grande scale and some rather tantalising remixes are afoot too !!

Rehearsals for our Green Man 11 hr Monstrous Psychedelic Bubble extravaganza are starting next week and not content with 8 people on stage we've added both a flautist and a hammond supremo to the line-up . . promises to be . . . .er . . CROWDED !! Our new hammond brother is currently driving from France with his modified cosmic hammond where he sleeps in a bus . . . .we asked him to join the band before we even heard him play such was his delectable vibe while helping save our 200 year 0ld stone walls in france ( ivy has gotten a grip !! ). . . our good judgement has been justified meanwhile when we finally got to hear him play outside a pizza restaurant in a Limousin eaterie last week . . BooOOY can this guy play . . . .another dimension has opened !!!

10/08/09 - Zeebox Volume 3 finally appears!

After some wait, we finally get our hands on the third and final Zeebox release. The record is remixed and enhanced - "some of these recordings may suffer from wow and flutter - most have been salvaged from 25 year old reel to reel tapes - some of which had to be baked - more at fsoldigital.com".
Featuring 29 tracks, the release is more consistent and flowing than the previous, more disjointed Zeebox releases. Each track features an image and recording information in the id3 tag. For some sneak preview tracks, have a look online - where else but Brian's YouTube.
Zeebox Volume 3 can be bought for £5.00 from FSOLdigital.
