ILLUSION OF SAFETY
“Cancer”

The origianl 1991 album sequence has been edited down from the original 60 minute CD program to fit on an LP and remastered. Additionally the material has been coalesced into 7 specific tracks (instead of the arbitrary and annoying 31 indexes on the CD) as available here A1-B4.
Track 8 (A1-3) and 9 (B1-4) are the full uninterrupted album sides available as such.

This one was mostly a group effort focused on a dark ambient atmospheric environment and experimental minimalism that crawls under your skin. Mark & Thymme’s heavy synth is omnipresent, Mitch & Chris scraping every piece of scrap metal they could find, Jim’s extended piano & tabletop guitar is apparent, the abstract sampling techniques of founding member Daniel Burke appear throughout, & the beautiful solo minimalist piano composition of Thymme’s closes the LP. Soundtrack like in its scope the album is another in the ongoing concept of music without a film providing a dark soundtrack to the nightmares or realities we wish we could forget. The 2025 edit & remaster removes the excess and hones the meat down to 7 essential tracks that show the projects oeuvre at that point in their lengthy history sounding clear & fresh with the newly mastered version by Andrew Weathers.

For IOS: Chris Block, Daniel Burke, Mark Klein, Jim O’Rourke, Mitch Enderle, Thymme Jones.
