Night Tape

VINYL FORMAT. Tracks: "Five Girl Night" and "XXXmas" b/w "Sky Burial" and "Ride Symbols." Gentle Friendly are David (vocals, keys) and Daniel (drums, organ). They found some high grade coffee and a drum kit in a skip in their adopted home of Peckham, South London. Matching these with some antique keyboards and samplers, they began to play songs in their basement until their neighbors chased them overground with knives. Night Tape was recorded in early 2008 on a makeshift studio during a five day retreat to a countryside cottage. The tracks meld cutting keys and rolling drums with a backdrop of loops and feedback, transcending their influences ("anything screw'd and chop'd") to create something gleefully disjointed and chaotic.
