About
Composed by the Free Radicals, a Wellington-based art music duo comprised of Jonathan Besser and Ross Harris.
A feminist friend used this term to describe the [Free Radicals]’s gadgets! Hard to imagine why? A somewhat crunchy rhythm track with Drumulator and FM sounds underlies a synthesizer melody which is reminiscent of 80s British pop performer, Gary Numan. This piece was recorded live during the Strange Attractors Tour (1988) with various toys manipulated by Gerry Meister. Gerry was the ‘third radical’ in the early days.
