Synopsis

Product Description
Claire Lodge and Jeffrey Bützer are releasing their first album together, Past Wanstead Flats. After playing together in various projects for what seems like a small eternity, Lodge and Bützer have created the record to showcase their shared interest in loosely-structured, quickly-composed music. Close in sound to one of their current projects, The Compartmentalizationalists, the album combines elements of surf, Itallian film music and experimental, angular guitar sounds. Unlike that former project, however, Lodge and Bützer are the only musicians present. Written and recorded in one eleven day stretch last year, Past Wanstead Flats uses influences such as Sonny Sharrock, Marc Ribot, Sonic Youth and PJ Harvey, as a foundation for the music and a way to create common ground between the two musicians. Bützer has released two solo albums She Traded Her Leg (2006) and The Garden of Scissors (2009) through Lona Records (Hong Kong). Lodge divides her time between the UK and the States, she has participated in a myriad of bands and projects. Only recently did the guitarist/producer begin to showcase her own material, starting with the Compartmentalizationalists and following with this project. Wholly instrumental, the album features Lodge on guitars and Bützer on guitar and drums, and was created by recording loosely structured songs live to tape. In turn, after recording, each musician did one guitar overdub.
