MONOPOLY CHILD STAR SEARCHERS - Prince of Parrot Shooters/The Aqueducts of Channel Island

"In an interview for The Wire magazine back in January 2012, Spencer Clark claimed that one of the most important "lessons" learned while performing with The Skaters was "stay true to your imagination". Taking this life motto at heart, Clark's world today is still a place of wonder and myth, conveyed through a myriad of aliases and invocations like Vodka Soap, Fourth World Magazine, or Typhonian Highlife. Always the wide-eyed mystic and searcher of the netherworld, Clark surfaces again on Discrepant sister label Pacific City Discs, straight from the Canary Islands with this not quite but somewhat reissue under his celebrated and celebratory Monopoly Child Star Searchers alias. Combining visions from two long, long sold out and hardly traceable releases on Clark's own Pacific City label, pressed for the first time ever in wax with a new master by Dubplates & Mastering -- as it should -- Prince of Parrot Shooters/The Aqueducts of Channel Island stands as a vital piece in an ever changing and deeply personal mandala-like oeuvre. A hypnotic and appropriately lo-fi flux of bouncy hand percussion loops, nature calls, and celestial synth harmonies that weave themselves into trance inducing rituals. Levitating fever-dream recordings from imaginary topographies, or perhaps a gateway to fortean alternate realities just lurking around the corner. Stay true to your imagination indeed." - Pacific City Discs.
