Daniel Thomas & Kevin Sanders

Following on from our initial collaboration - Transit Timing Observations from Kepler - and the follow up release - Transit Timing Variations - me and Kevin Sanders have been hard at work, recording a new long player - Frequency Variations in the Kepler Delta - exciting times!

Any hoo, more details of the new release will materialise soon but, in the meantime, you'll be able to catch our first live performance in just a fortnight from now! We're playing along with Sump and Carer at the Royal Park Cellars. Going to have to pull some doom laden, heavy cosmic drone out of the bag to fit in with these guys...

Oh, and along with NASA endorsements we've been honoured with a play on the most recent edition of the wonderful Crow Versus Crow Radio Show...

Transit Timing Variations at Igloo Magazine

A great little write up of Transit Timing Variations, the most recent collaboration between Kevin Sanders and my good self, has just been posted over at Igloo Magazine. Many thanks to Stephen for this...

"With some beautiful music of the spheres eventually arising out of drone and whirr, perhaps the spirit of the original Kepler was leaning over their shoulders."

RFM on Transit Timing Observations From Kepler

A super review from the super Radio Free Midwich, looking at the Daniel Thomas & Kevin Sanders disc; Transit Timing Observations From Kepler, released on Hairdryer Excommunication.

"There are (at least) two ways to listen to this. One is to let the dominant roars and throbs act as a welcome ego suppressant, the other is to concentrate, brow furrowed. The rewards of the former are the mental equivalent of a hot bath, the latter is the approach for industrial archeologists (sic). Taking a trowel and brush to this reveals rusted gears with glinting diamond teeth, motionless but still suggesting strange grinding epicycles."

Sheepscar Excommunication

Now, it may not be common knowledge, but Kevin Sanders aka Petals; head honcho of the wonderful Hairdryer Excommunication, used to live (like me) in sunny Sheepscar. However, I should mention that he wasn't excommunicated from Sheepscar, he left with the blessing of LS8 for the equally tropical climes of Huddersfield. The title of this blog post relates instead to what has been a very exciting collaboration between Mr Sanders and my good self.

Readers of the Hairdryer Excommunication blog may have already spotted the following;

"There will be more though, including a collaboration with Sheepscar Light Industrial‘s main man, Daniel Thomas. This will be a 50+ minute cdr which will be available from next weekend. It is also excellent, and took literally hours to bloom from seed to fruit."

Hopefully there will be more to report very soon, with details on the release of 'Daniel Thomas & Kevin Sanders - Transit Timing Observations from Kepler'.
