orsoncoupland I personally do love a good finger
piano, so when I innocently (c)licked play on Pocket Sardine I actually did find myself teetering on the edge of a full-phat mulcher deep inside my private parts. Thought I was going to relapse back into Amine's life at 3:02. But yeah, well done guys. Favorite track: Fun Alone and With Friends.

about

Pocket sardines are the most utile food stuff.

This album is all about having a bit of fun with your friends, with your family, on your own, etcetera. I wanted to try to form duos with as many people as possible, in an attempt to develop one-on-one relationships for future trios/quartets/quintets ... Anyway, that's an album or two ahead, the ideas are only just forming. There's still many more people I'd like to perform with.

Um. It's a bit of a long one. Most of it was conceptually composed around November 2021, the actual performing/recording began in December 2021 and finished around February 2022. Obviously once you begin recording you sort of re-compose everything and re-adjust, the structure becomes clearer, some stuff happens that you never expected and you want to include it. So anyway. It's done now.

released May 27, 2022

The album was conceptually composed by Kit Bula (AKA Kit Slawson). Kit Bula wrote the 'Rangle Clangle's Escape' storyline. Kit Slawson performed/co-composed all tracks with the following:

Toby "Prof Tim" Bula on tracks 1, 2, 6, 9, 10, 12, 13, and 18.

Tom "Larry Legs" Jones on tracks 4 and 10.

Crank Wank on tracks 5 and 7.

Logan Wilson (performing a traditional song 'Reuben') on track 16.

Track 19 features a sample of Logan Wilson and James Kemp performing spontaneously in the Lee Point Hell Hole. The rest of the sounds were created and curated by Kit Slawson.

The album was engineered and produced by Kit Slawson and mastered by Tom Jones.

Album art was created by Kit Bula, the photo shoot was undertaken by Toby and the nude women were photocopied from a '70s erotic paperback.
