Golden Cranes 014


Another Solo Edd Incarnation of Circuit Breaker- This time using a homebuilt guitar, with a contact mic built into the body, (the guitar body has an arm of springs and metal poles), saxophone and 'no-input' mixing! C-10 tape, hand drawn pencil cover

Golden Cranes 013


C-10 tape
The broken records which had their sleeves used for collages on CG012 are now used here! Our new found love affair with our Reel-to-Reel recorder continues with some fully kitted out Circuit Breaker improvisations captured onto it!

Golden Cranes 012


An old lady in Milton Keynes gave us her Reel-to-Reel recorder and these tapes document the frankly bizzare stuff we found on there. Fragments of family sing alongs, private moments of oral experimentation and eroded, un-identifiable sounds occupy one side of the tape and, (somewhat symbolically), the flip side is the improvisation we recorded to wipe over the other stuff!

The art work is collaged from the sleeves of some old broken records we where given!

Golden Cranes 011



Circuit Breaker live in Luton Cd-r
Playing at a VSTM records night, sometime in 2009, this was a short period where we where performing a set made of almost entirely composed songs - most of the tracks from GC006 and GC 004 feature here in their raw and sloppy live state!

Golden Cranes 010


Re-issue of GC-002 , An Edd solo incarnation of Circuit Breaker. Still in 3inch cd, but with a unique(ly) crappy collage on each case. Approx 20 made

Golden Cranes 009


Lucky dip C-10 Tapes
Each side features a track from our monstrous archive of old bedroom jams from 2006. We chose the tracks at random, so each one is different, and has a hand drawn wobbly frank-stella front cover too! 15 made - possibly more to come!
