limited black lp (600 only) unreleased electronic / jazz / madness from two titans of jazz and experimentation.john surman writes: back in 2012/13 there had been some talk about a big futuristic open air urban dance/theatre production for about 80/100 actors/dancers with lasers and all kinds of lighting effects on different stages. i was invited to get involved and, together with ben and karin, we eventually decided to get to work on some ideas. i think that the original plan was that in performance there would be a mixture of live music and electronica. not altogether surprisingly, bearing in mind the complexity of the project, it never moved forward and developed into anything more than an interesting idea. it was probably over ambitious & i guess the funding never came through.the recorded music laid around gathering dust until johnny trunk asked karin if she had any interesting music that he might be interested in releasing. one thing led to another and so, finally, electric element found a home!
