On their third CD, All my favourite things at once, San Francisco exploratory
pop group Here Are The Facts You Requested achieves a perfect balance
between musical control and organic sound collage. Played instruments
like cello, clarinet, and guitar jam with movie samples, keyboard effects,
and 70's organ drum loops, blurring the boundary between the real and
unreal.
This album was made in places between Barcelona and a rainy northern California
cabin. Several songs emerged from a single night improvising with DJ Boomerang
and longtime collabrator Ben Conrad on bass. Others were recorded while
on tour in Spain capturing the band's live set freshly to tape. The album
features many special guests from the US and Spain, including Testing
Ground label-mate Pau Torres' abusing 7-inch vinyl and a classical clarinetist.
Here Are The Facts You Requested emerge from their international studio
ensconcement as an electronic jam band with an uncanny ability to compose
songs of bittersweet moments that quietly slip from grasp.
