So this appears to be the first release on Oral Gestation Artefacts, and the last one that I haven’t heard. This blog post gives the main background: “Thomas Sutter of Regicide Bureau and Next Radio invited Zygurat Consortium and Beta Carrotene from Hornswoggle over to his home studio for an evening of noise-making merriment in 1994, and Trou-De-Loup was the result.” This is free-flowing experimental noise jam etc music. There is also spoken word, found noise, and samples in the mix – some distorted or manipulated (I am assuming on the spot). The first three songs clock in at over 47 minutes combined, with the last 6 being a lot shorter.
