MONOPOLY CHILD STAR SEARCHERS - Make Mine, Macaw

Earlier this century, Spencer Clark, aka Monopoly Child Star Searchers, created a sound phantasy with Skaters and after that he pursued a new alchemy under various aliases (Charles Berlitz, Fourth World Magazine, Monopoly Child, Typhonian Highlife, etc.) and projects (like Egyptian Sports Network, Tarzana, or The Temple Defectors). The different aliases arent a mode of dispersion or to create confusion, theyre setups for the different possibilities he imagines for music. Make Mine, Macaw -- previously released in 2010 as a limited CDR on Pacific City label -- references a large long-tailed parrot and is part of a trilogy about birds, Spencers Tropical Bird Romance Audio, which also includes, Bamboo For Two (2010) and The Garnet Toucan (2012). A deep dive into this record makes it clear why it should be re-released. In the field of experimental-tropical-cocktail music, no one does it like Spencer Clark, especially through his output Monopoly Child Star Searchers. Make Mine, Macaw explores the best cocktail recipes through five colorful pieces, using Clarks premium technique of blurry repetition and dreamy percussions. A tropical fantasy that starts in your ears, feeds your brain, and changes your life. You wont know what a pacific city sound vision is until you see one. Make Mine, Macaw makes you see one clearly. - Discrepant.
