about

Originally released in 2003 on Blackbean and Placenta Tape Club (Frazier Park, California).

REVIEW of the original release:

THE WIRE Aug 2004,
"Our fascination for space is essentially nostalgia for space. We are constantly viewing it through the eyes of others. Longstone's fifth album, a rough crosscut selection of ten untitled instrumentals, expresses a fond remembrance for the limitless possibilities to be found in space rock's past. As analogue synths and guitar effect pedals, bleeps and beeps, rhythm boxes and sequencers tell their story in willing direct tones, Mike Cross and Mike Ward continue to shift perspectives with their usual aplomb. It's a bit like tuning through a radio late at night - the eerie exuberance of hearing familiar things distorted by extreme distance. The occasional voice is captured off the airwaves. It all makes sense as you drift from station to station. Even the Speak and Spell man has a few pertinent things to say about animals. It depends on which buttons you push. Whatever, it's clear that Cross and Ward know what they're doing."
