Martin Archer has been throwing various combinations of sonic stuff at sticky Sheffield surfaces since the late Seventies.
Assembling the forty, largely untrained, singers of Juxtavoices in atmospheric locations, he channels their breathy extemporisations through texts by Samuel Becket, Gertrude Stein and the venerable sound poet Bob Cobbing, who would have loved Juxtavoices’ inchoate evisceration of Are Your Children Safe In The Sea? Here’s a mass exorcism, a whole tribe talking in tongues, forty full moon were-Ligetis, and Wicker Man workings wrangled by the Swingle Singers.
