A Very Long Way from Anywhere Else
This CD will be released on Bip Hop in May 2007 (cat no Bleep 35). It is a follow up to "the time of the ancient astronaut" released in 2001. Max Eastley is a sound sculptor, artist, and musician. When with Spaceheads he plays an instrument he invented and made himself called The Arc. It is a monochord of wood and wire, which is scraped, bent and flexed into an orbit of amplified effects. Since releasing "ancient astronaut" in 2001, Spaceheads and Max Eastley have played a variety of gigs including a live session for the BBC "Mixing It" programme. Their live sets are totally improvised and form the basis of this new CD.

It was recorded at two very different locations, one an island
off the south of France, and the other a remote village on the North Yorkshire
moors, both venues a very long way from anywhere else. The shed is, as the name
suggests not much more than a shed in the very small village of Brawby. The
Mimi festival gig was held on one of the Friouli Islands south of Marseille,
the former site of a leper colony. It was on the way to the island that the
Spaceheads sailed pass the infamous 'Chateau D'if ' the setting for incarceration
of the future 'Count de Monte Cristo '. A reading of the book was the inspiration
for most of the titles on the CD.

the fields of infinite space open to you, you advance free in heart, free in
mind, into the boundless realms of unfettered reverie.”
Alexandre Dumas ‘The Count of Monte Cristo’
