a cat called flea, a smashed china plate in a plastic bag, a flugelhorn from prague held together with green tape, a jews harp from venice, the birds in a graveyard in nottingham in spring, bits of electronic synthesising and effect tom-foolery, a girl mucking about with a piano, a knackered old zither, a dictaphone recording of a ukranian train station at dawn, sleighbells at dusk, an over-used loop sampler, some old jam-jars in a plastic bag, a nut-cracker named klad, a lampshade, a child's violin, and some other stuff probably too.

"If you combined mid-90's Tortoise with the entire BBC Sound Effects Library, you may come close to approximating Awesome Wells' sound. But you wouldn't come anywhere near to his precise, caring control - the sounds ebb, flow and weave together to the point where any lingering doubts are assuaged by the gleefulness of the sonic journey you've just taken." - www.anewbandaday.com
