Very High Frequencies 209 is a two hour trip through long running experimental electronic project The Tear Garden. Since 1985 Legendary Pink Dots lyricist. vocalist and keyboard player Edward Ka-Spel and Skinny Puppy founder and multi-instrumentalist cEvin Key have been collaborating on producing their unique twist on modern psychedelic music. Various members of both bands have been involved in many of their songs. Very High Frequencies samples a couple of tracks from just about every album and EP they have released as well as the Subconscious Records compilation album Paradigm Shift track, Message 3, which opens the show. Consider headphones for your enhanced listening experience, especially during epic (16:47) album track You and Me and Rainbows from The Tear Garden’s first full length release, Tired Eyes Slowly Burning (1987). Even Skinny Puppy vocalist Ogre makes an appearance along with the late great DR Goettel on keyboards.
