They represent the spoken word genre in the Spirit and influence of Ken Nordine, Vivian Stanshill, Tom waits and even some Chris Morris lurking in there somewhere. I would like to thank Dan Berggren for his encouragement, support over the years in my audio related creative endeavors. Jim Briggs for the superb job of bring new life to these sonic landscapes. And of course all the talented musicians who I had the good fortune and honor to work with in collaboration. I dedicate this collection to future generations whom I hope will rediscover how to stare with their ears (As Nordine coined it) and allow the imagination to peer into the subconscious history of Rubber Eden some day. I am confident there is always someone out there who will not allow this sort of storytelling to become a vanishing breed that dwindles to extinction. To keep alive the art of listening, to travel beyond merely hearing.

This current project is the 5th in a series with long time colleague, friend and collaborator Dan Berggren. Quatroche is a local educator de-jour and poet/storyteller. “Matador from Another Planet” is a mind movie that paints word pictures in a sonic vorkapitch. If Ken Nordine, Tom Waits, Rod Serling, Charles Bukowski, and Rod McKuen‘s “ids” became scrambled in a post modern auditory blender then the ghost of Vivian Stanshill would be included to produce fresh “pink half’s of the drain pipe” with Eno nodding in agreement while the residents scrambled for the libretto. In short, this is your late night companion in the car or by candlelight for libation and reflection.
