because if you are downloading this track while it
isdaylight, you probably shouldn't be listening in the first
place

I'm not a fan of early (pre 92) Hafler Trio stuff as it
tends to be more abrubt and abrasive in nature and features
a bit too much of just processed field recordings. His later
stuff and especially recently (last 5 years) are really
pleasant ambienty-minimal loveliness.

I haven't heard a thirsty fish yet, or Kill The King which
is supposidy his greatest work to date.

it's fantastic, all over the place. that's the Hafler I like
best, the collage-y kind.

it's a bit like "kill the king".

Yeah, kill the king is great. Mastery of money is cool too,
very drony-evil-awesome.

these are available where i can buy them:

'Whistling about chickens'
'Part the second: No man put asunder : 7 fruitful and
seamless unions'
'How to reform mankind'
'Mastery of money'
'A thirsty fish'

(i'm hesitating: 'A thirsty fish', or 'Mastery of money' +
'How to reform mankind' - as these ones are apparently part
2 and part 3 of a trilogy, part 1 being Kill the king... but
i'm also tempted to get Scenery of decalcomania by Toshiya
Tsunoda, Ozeanische Gefühle by Irr.App.(Ext.), Derive by
Sachiko M... & i can't afford everything. so i guess i'll
just hesitate for some more time.)

(or maybe 'Whistling about chickens', hell, i don't know.

hard to know anything at all about what a Hafler Trio
release is about, or so it seems to me.)

The track elusive posted is from a 1994 re-release of two
things from 1986. At that time there was another active
member, Chris Watson (formerly of Cabaret Voltaire). The
last thing I can find that he was involved in was A Thirsty
Fish in '87. You will find that these releases are more
'collage' sounding with field-recording type samples and are
more similar to the posted track.

THREE WAYS OF SAYING TWO

uzim -> I really enjoyed (and purchased) Mastery of Money,
it seemed far closer to the later Hafler Trio sound than
what I've heard of A Thirsty Fish. If you're on Oink, I'm
currently seeding I Never Knew That's Who You Thought You
Were as a FLAC (is that what you were getting at elusive ?).
Yeah as mappatazee said, the releases when Chris Watson were
still in H3O are far greater collage sounding and something
I'm not too keen on, however everything post and including
Kill The King is just Mr. McKenzie and is a lot more relaxed
sounding in nature.

There's a great load of reviews of his/their stuff on the
brainwashed site here:

My Exactly as I Say special edition apparently arrived at my
house 5 days ago (I'm currently at a University based
house). I can't wait for this one. Hafler Trio has recently
found a special place in my heart.
