Canvey Grotto

Test render + music in Adobe After Effects

Music: Jim Shaw - Guitar and trumpet duet with organ drone and tape loops.

from "Jim Shaw Solo Works (1975-1979) " (Compound Annex Records) 8CD-BOX

"An 8-CD box set of solo recordings by Shaw produced during, and just after, the period of his involvement with the early improvisational incarnation of the proto-noise band Destroy All Monsters. There guitar assaults, tape cut-ups, and loop experiments are guaranteed to turn your mind to jelly"

Music available in full length here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4It9SkVZHBE
