about

A pretty bizarre one, even by Endgame standards, with a hell of a lot of sound manipulation and live musique-concrete, hence the apt title Under Construction! Yes, it's weird, with twists and turns galore, sizzling noises, perplexing sound fabrics, and much more. And thus not easy to describe. Usual Endgame then, and not at all! There's a melodic context to much of it, but no real tunes, it's more about dynamics, counterpoint, development - drawing the listener in, surprising, and throwing in the occasional whammy that knocks the listener sideways (in the best possible way of course!). Throughout the albums 11 tracks, a thematic continuity gels it all together. You want comparisons? Well, none really come to mind, maybe a bit of Nurse With Wound circa "Live At Bar Maldoror", bits of Kluster, certainly nods to the INA.GRM masters like Bayle, Zanesi, Parmegiani, Lejeune, et al.

about

Endgame Leicester, UK

Endgame music is instantaneous invention. Initially Endgame stepped on from German cosmic music in the manner of Zeit era Tangerine Dream, akin to Lightwave, the INA-GRM school or Morphogenesis. Expect references/dedications to Nurse With Wound, Krautrock, etc. Endgame were very busy on the session front for almost a decade, and continue to play live together occasionally. The archive is vast. ... more
