As we continue to revisit past recordings with a view to making them available on Bandcamp, archive finds usually present themselves and we are only too happy to include anything which still knocks us out after all this time. The case in point here is a 30 minute extended multi-take/edit/remix/cubase experiment made in 2008 of Silicone Psychosis which was initially known as The Glorious Greenhouse Riff which will be obvious to all connoisseurs of Steve Hillage's music. We do actually quote The Glorious Om Riff towards the very end. Witnessing it played live in Redcar when were 15 was a big influence on us all. Here's to Steve!

Of course Steve's cosmic team captain Daevid Allen drew the sleeve art for Rain Falls In Grey and elements of that artwork appear here. This is related to that album belonging to the same time period (2007) and has the same all out space rock approach in the main.

We have expanded it to 4 discs to incorporate much of the material recorded at sessions as we were finishing up the Rain Falls In Grey album. It takes up where RFIG Redux left off. Not all of it was intended for album release but we hope it gives a glimpse into a time period when we would arrive at the Greenhouse in Stockport, plug in and play whatever we liked, and for once the sequencers didn't dominate proceedings.

The Greenhouse was a special place for us and it was a sad day when it closed its doors....also a hectic one as we had about 48 hours notice to get the gear out. They were great days while they lasted.

For fans of the space rock side of RMI this one is not to be missed!

radio massacre international's sound defies categorization it is more magical than musical. the music is, first and foremost, improvisational. it is loose in structure but also searching. r.m,i. is all about generating the happy accidents that occur at the ever-changing intersection of multiple moving bodies. when two sequences converge fascinating things happen opening rhythmic and textural options that just moments before were closed to view. it is the creation and exploration of those options that dominates what r.m,i. does in its music.
