This is a track from the 3rd official album by my sound art side project 'Liono'. On this album, each track is a genuine reflection on our own social interactions with a real life person.
Like all of the best projects, Liono started out as a joke. As teenagers, my younger brother Alan and I used to make tapes of experimental noise and leave humorous posters around our village advertising the cult of Liono. This developed in 2006 into a satirical sonic art project with my friend the DJ Tim Hopkin. We produced some albums and I performed a number of live performance sets based on the tracks we had recorded. It received rave reviews from the sound art scene in Plymouth who we had initially set out to ridicule, finally staging a controversial performance in Plymouth Arts Centre, which pushed the boundaries of good taste so far that Liono could sink no further…
