Hi all .. first things first; new Colongib album is hot off the press. Hear
the mp3 clips @ kracfive.com. Read about it below.

"480% better than his last album! 20 years in the making, this album hears
Colongib collaborating with life-long soul-mate Chris Graves. Songs and
soundscapes are assembled with great detail and changing nonrepetition, yet
not 100% abstract: still accessible and with 80% more funk. This album has
personality. A sense of humor from an odd kracfive land. Colongib and
likeminded fellows (elsepeople de Kracfive, Bisk, Freeform, Ae, Atom,
Phthalo, Hrvatski, Sonig camp) seem to be building a new language in music -
sourcing sounds from all walks of life (microphones in hand at all times,
electronic synthesis, sampling, altered often beyond recognition and fitted
together as if originally from the same world) and composing with them in a
technically impressive manner while retaining an organic feel. A beautiful
and appropriate machineplant mess for artwork, built by Tpolm and Graves."

Get Special Rumble for $10 direct from www.kracfive.com or $more elsewhere
in a few weeks when it hits the retailers. This first k5 release in 2001
looks and sounds beautifully dense intense indeed. Comes with a bonus
magnetic disapearing phase melody.

West Coast ! January 27th is the date of the first k5alive show in 2001.
Come to the Roy O. Disney hall at CalArts, in Valencia California (20
minutes north of LA off the 5) at 8:30 or so for some live Octopus Inc,
among others. Should be a trip. This is an all ages free show with free
drinks and lots of freeform starry eyed college students, so come prepared.
Prepared for fun!

best
noah chris joe & the rest
