Limited-edition, 300 only worldwide on deep-yellow colored vinyl, housed in a reverse board sleeve, with hype sticker, polylined inner bag and download code. Stars align and Oli Heffernan brings his ever-(d)evolving Ivan The Tolerable to Riot Season for two LPs of sublime entropic drift. Having this time recruited Christian Alderson (The Unit Ama) on drums, John Pope (Ponyland) on double bass, Kevin Nickles (Ecstatic Vision) on flute and saxophone and Ben Hopkinson on electric piano -- both works were recorded as a quintet almost instantaneously, the players barely brushing or breathing a note before the whole thing was done. The first LP, Vertigo (REPOSE 142LP), is all claustrophobic, dense and disorientating -- like Sun Ra sitting in with Exploding Star Orchestra. The second LP, Water Music, is the music of lapping waves, becalmed, creaking hulls, circling birds and gentle winds. Equal parts Laraaji and Natural Information Society.
