"This tape is a series of recordings of an automated electronic ensemble - independent agents designed and built by Tom Grimley to perform his music for him. Side "A" includes studies for the full piece and the full recording of "Never Mind..." while side B contains "Studies for a New Trio." Both of these recordings are remarkably new and fascinating -- new and unheard voices interact and produce something that warrants close attention -- there are layers of discussion and projection, hums, creaks, whistles, throbs, and more. First in a planned series of projects with Heavy Tapes and Tom." Heavy Tapes

"We first met Drew from Withdrawal Method / Since 1972 at the first No Fun festival -- he was selling tapes and hanging with the Nyoukis/Brighton crew, and his tapes were killer. After finding about his music project Withdrawal Method by a few bootleg live shows and officially released cassettes, we asked Drew for a master, and he gave us two live performances -- an optimal way to enjoy his sounds. Rough, live, purely electronic, these two pieces defy description -- just bury your head in the sand and trust us on this one." Heavy Tapes

"The trip from the Western part of the Island to San Juan is smooth and dramatic -- the trees melt away and a metropolitan bulb protrudes. Right in the shadow of the bulb is Santurce, where the Cubo space is a jagged realm of concrete and hyper productive thought and action. Workbench and Black Quarter were lucky enough to be invited to play in the San Juan Noise Fest and this is a partial document of the evening -- our live set on one side, and Puerto Rican noise mainstay Cornucopia on the other. A small slice of a magical evening in Puerto Rico." Heavy Tapes
