Cosmic Dennis Greenidge - Vrh sante ludila



Jedan od onih luđaka/autsajderskih umjetnika - koji pjevaju, sviraju, crtaju, objavljuju, gledaju u atome, povezuju sve ni sa čime, raspredaju o donjem rublju, demonima, magičnim moćima... No čovjek je objavio albume (Giant Man, Giant Plan; Transformers; Aware In Underwear) kod ugledne kuće (Mordant Music), pa ove godine LP na kojem je s jedne strane on a s druge čudoslavni Leyland Kirby, i sad je na putu prema - čemu? Čemuzemlju, zemljočemlju..? SikstinskA capella zadnjeg čovjeka u svemiru?



"Cosmic Dennis Greenidge: 'Giant Man, Giant Plan' (Mordant) More strangeness from the spooky world of Mordant. A label bracketted in with Ghostbox as leaders in the new genre dubbed Hauntological. This sixty six track assortment, although not evidently scary, is sometimes worrying and completely downright wrong. Made on a mono tape-to-tape recorder, these ditties are psuedo operatic warblings and outsider artist fantasies scrawled over a backdrop of queasy listening, found sound, blast of at least three recent dance music genres complete with rewind sounds- yes the actual sound of a tape recorder rewinding. It's like a wrong Library record, a genius, free imagination running wild, if a little close to the edge. How it sits within the Hauntological field is anyone's guess. Maybe it's the continuing documentation of British eccentricity with is fondness for childhood nostalgia, longing for a now lost past, long lost TV soundtracks, semi-mythological places and meanings. Hope that's high brow enough for ya?!"
