"With a background in both pop playing and classical composition, Gary Smith has released close to twenty albums and worked with such luminaries as Shoji Hano, Bill Fay, Rhys Chatham, John Stevens, Hugh Hopper and Aufgehoben no process. His guitar playing is consistently building up a formidable vocabulary of technique. Without the use of effects pedals, overdubs or 'studio trickery' Smith's current performances are a revelation of gestural manipulation. The guitar is palmed, stroked, and smothered in search of new sounds. Smith's playing is a looping, graceful expression of energy, ideas and sheer joy. His solo recordings touch many spheres of reference: laptop's fascination with glitch music but from a live perspective; the muffled and trapped strings echo prepared piano as rough pressured rhythms are layered over wandering multiple glissandi. In this exciting project we are presenting a double cd release featuring a series of Gary Smith's incendiary solo recordings coupled with treatments, interpretations and re-imaginings from: Bill Fay, Steve Roden, Elliott Sharp, David Tibet, Paulo Raposo, Bernhard Gunter, Tom Wallace, Zoltan Kodaly School For Girls, Peter Rehberg, Tianna Kennedy, Charles Hayward, BJNilsen, Aufgehoben. All tracks are exclusive to this album. Bill Fay's 'Pear Tree Tomorrow' features a new recording and interpretation of songs from the 'Tomorrow, Tomorrow and Tomorrow' album. David Tibet's track 'Black Ships Kill Into View' is an unused song from Current 93's new 'Black Ships Ate The Sky' album."
