This fortnights show Devout Catalyst is named so after the Movie starring Ken Nordine and Tom Waits. A very entertaining piece of improvised spoken word or as Nordine would call it Word Jazz. A couple of rowdy experimental tunes free from The Real Luthor Mercy Maternal Clementine on myspace.com/realluthor. A pretty electro-acoustic piece by Carte Postale from the album Portrat on the tasty Belgium netlabel A Carte Postale Records www.cartepostalerecords.be. Also featured are two Australian producers, Faux Pas with Dorothy’s Finger from his self-released album Entropy Begins At Home. There are some awesome drum sounds in this track. On a more noise ambient note we have Ian Cho’s track Get Free! from his album The Waking Woods. Some beautiful listening so make sure you check out Ian’s site and Tovian Records www.tovianrecords.com. This crazy show was put together by Yun Mei!!
