Knutsford In May
[CD : Released June 1997: Cenatur Discs : CENCD 021]

In May 1996 Radio Massacre International were the first group to play an electronic concert at Jodrell Bank space research centre in Cheshire, in the shadow of the biggest
satellite dish in the world. It was a location buzzing with inspiration and ideal for creating improvised music. KNUTSFORD IN MAY is a complete direct to DAT recording of the
music played that evening. The pristine digital sound quality is matched by some inspirational musical twists and turns. From the first notes of 'Under the Dish' the atmosphere
is one of unashamed glorification of the surroundings and its relationship with space and time. RMI are always a group to thrive in a special environment. The album's
centrepiece is a long dynamic improvisation named 'Skeletope' which includes samples of Jodrell Bank scientists bouncing the first signals off the surface of the moon. A triumph
of live sequencing, mellotron and guitar, it is one of RMI's very best pieces to date. 'Action Painting's sequences develop hypnotically as they bounce around the planetarium and
round off a performance that the group was so happy with they just had to release it.

 Rain Falls In A Different Way
A companion piece to the 2007 release Rain Falls In Grey, this album was recorded at the same time as its' big brother. Slightly overlooked for all the right reasons,
these pieces have now found their own voice, albeit, obviously, in a different way...
