....it is 1995 and
Myleftvoice
debut upon Sydneys live circuit. A
simple acoustic duo playing songs of complex vocal and musical
arrangements.......A "multi media presentation" with a low
tech slide show of image and text; Myleftvoice
have ambition,
they have talent; they
are different.
Residencies at leading venues generate
critical interest and an increasing following. Management and
record company interests compare them favorably to artists like Ani
DeFranco, or locally to Max Sharam and Cactus Child.
"Just because we play acoustically doesn't mean thats what we
want to sound like. It's an economic imperative..." says ticot...."We're
showcasing our material in the way that at present we can....that for
now is acoustic guitar, voice and images, but what we hear is a
squelch here and kick drums to make your ears bleed...".....
Australian record companies love the four
piece rock act. " Get a drummer and a
bassist.."...."It's a great voice, all it needs is a
band.."
But Myleftvoice
are listening to something else....................
....." How does Bjork get that sound
in......."
....." In this song we hear a sound like...."
"What you need is a sampler."................"
A sampler..............
