Fancy: a 17th century term generally describing a composition in which form is of secondary importance. Fancies were usually contra-puntal and in several sections.
This cassette offers six items of unsettled material, decidedly too compelling to be amalgamated into more complex structures. They are compiled and presented as such to allow for reciprocation between each, despite their fanciful conditions and/or behavioural disparities.
The cassette format was chosen as the most suitable method of presentation, being an increasingly iconic symbol of marginalisation, but no less prosporus. My personal interaction with the format allows for listening of a different kind, the kind that successfully suggests to me, and thus supports, a notion of ‘works in parenthesis’.
I dedicate this cassette to James’ car
