    Helen Maurer is an artist, as opposed to a musician in her background. There is a sense that she is creating aural sculptures or pictures in sound.

    On ‘Round Sound’ she starts with a sound approaching like a motor running, a steam train approaching and then a metal hit. Echoes of a reverb-y room and toys falling and twirling. It’s a bit like a lot less menacing Einstürzende Neubauten (to my ears, although I’m pretty sure that Helen is not familiar with EN), or a dream of a haunted toyshop. I liked it.

    On ‘The Singing Pool/Pins Make Me Breathe’ she starts with the a sound evocative of the station-master blowing his whistle, and they’re off with what sounds like a bubble bath choir, with a brief bit exploratory rubber band soloing, and afterwards more pleasant gurgling. Pins takes us down to the basement where strange things are quaking.

    It’s all quite enchanting. Is it music in the generally understood sense? Probably not, but it’s rewarding to listen to.
