Biology While many groups burrow deeper into genres which seem to fracture music, Here Are The Facts You Requested finds the best music is not in fractions, but fractals. They rise above styles to speak about music in its totality—the grand melting pop. Comprised of happy noise generated by cello, turntables, drums, guitar and guitar synth, the music of Here Are The Facts You Requested is aggressively ecclectic. Like Can, their composed songs appear as ephemeral islands of clarity amid sparkling exploratory improvisations. Like The Flaming Lips, The Beta Band, Cornelius, or Andy Warhol, they seek the psychedlic within the repetition and references of pop. Under these forces, genres collapse and cross-pollinate. Samples rhyme with singers, Native American drummers jam withdrum machines. Studio pops, hums and hiss are sculpted into a rhythm track. A cowboy ballad is played against a soundtrack of rodeo sounds and industrial noise. They work closely with many machines, adding the language of in your face digital edits to the speech of improvisation. They turn improvisation into composition using the computers—in effect, sampling themselves. [show less]
