michal turtle: are you psychic?/astral decoy

Two deeply forward-thinking electronic tracks from British musician Michal Turtle. "Are You Psychic?" is taken from Turtle's obscure Music from the Living Room album (1983), a work created with live instrumentation that manages to sound sample-based, with voices and sound effects recorded directly to tape or put onto tiny 2.5-second cassette loops. The previously unreleased "Astral Decoy" (1984) reflects a growing interest in more analog elements such as xylophone and live percussion, as well as electro and boogie. This 12" precedes Music From Memory's wider compilation of Turtle's works, produced with access to the archives of the many recordings made at his family home.
